NEW LEAF Market, Tallahasse, Florida - September 14, 2009 Liver Health Seminar by Johnny Delirious

Konsumgenossenschaften scheinen der letzte Strohhalm zu sein, wenn es um die wahre Bedeutung des Konzepts "Wir, das Volk" in diesem Lande geht.

Nein, ich werde mich hier nicht auf konspirative Theorien einlassen, kündige aber jetzt schon an, dass ich in meiner nächsten Biographie die in Kürze erscheint, dieses Thema aufgreifen werde. Verfolgen Sie also weiterhin diese Webseite. Ich mag CoOps, habe sie schon immer gemocht und da ist NEW LEAF keine Ausnahme. Die gesamte Ausstattung des Ladens ist gerade erst umgebaut worden und hat sich in eine äusserst angenehme Einkaufsumgebung verwandelt. Wie ich es immer mache, habe ich mich auch diesmal zwischen den Regalen nach neuen Gütern umgesehen und zu meiner Überraschung eine grosse Variation festgestellt, es gab ausserdem frisch gepresste Säfte, Shakes und ein
warmes Buffet, ausgezeichnet!

Ich war eingeladen worden, einen Vortrag über die Gesundheit der Leber im Nebenraum zu halten. Wir begannen um 19 Uhr 45 und dies war damit der späteste Vortrag, den ich je gehalten hatte. So hatte ich den Tag zur freien Gestaltung und fand nur ein paar Häuser weiter im gleichen Einkaufszentrum ein Fitness Center. Dort verbrachte ich insgesamt 3 1/2 Stunden mit Gewichtheben und auf der Tretmühle. Ich wollte meinen 185 Pfund schweren, Hepatits-freien Körper auf das abendliche Seminar vorbereiten. Da ich
keinerlei Stimulante einnehme, verleihen mir Schwitzen und körperlicher Ausarbeitung den nötigen Schwung.

Der Seminarraum war fast gefüllt, 17 Teilnehmer hatten Platz genommen, einige von ihnen hatten über 3 Stunden Autofahrt hinter sich und waren äusserst überrascht, dass es jemanden geben konnte, der ohne Virus lebt! Nun, ich bin der lebende Beweis dafür - und das schon seit 15 Jahren. In einem Formblatt das NEW LEAF die Teilnehmer ausfüllen liess, beantworteten alle die Frage mit "JA", als es darum ging ob der Sprecher wieder eingeladen werden sollte. Wenn sie mich also wieder einladen, werde ich allerdings versuchen, den Vortrag auf einen Vormittag zu verlegen, Samstagmorgen wäre gut.
Um 22 Uhr war Geschäftsschluss und so mussten die Teilnehmer aufbrechen. Es ist einfach nie genug Zeit, aber die Botschaft war klar, wir alle haben die Möglichkeit, auf natürlichem Wege unsere Leber gesund und somit ein längeres Leben zu erhalten. Das ist meine Botschaft.

In Memory of Johnny's Father

This picture was taken in 1997, when I went to my father's 50 Year Medical Reunion and assisted him in all of his activities. A little background on my father...he was born on 9 July 1912 in Muncie, Indiana. He attended local schools and after graduating from Muncie Central High he attended Kenyon College in Ohio, Rollins College in South Florida, and the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia and became an engineer. Later in his career, he graduated from Tulane Medical School during World War II and as a Naval Reserve officer he taught anatomy at Tulane for the war effort to train more doctors. He was a specialist in Tropical diseases and worked with the Hanson's disease clinic near New Orleans. Due to this interest he was part of the consortium who was working to develop antibiotics such as sulfa and penicillin which would change the treatment of many infections as well as Hanson's disease. It was paramount to the treatment of the war wounded as well.

Going to his reunion and meeting his class mates, I was associating with such medical legends as Drs. Alton Oscher, Leon Meier, Flora Finch, Bob Brown, Michael DeBakey, Dr. Herbert, Dr. F. Marascalco and many others. Dr. Michael de Bakey you may remember is the famous Houston Heart Surgeon who operated on Boris Yelson's heart; which was a very successful operation. Bob Brown is not only an excellent Doctor, but he also was one of the New York Yankee's better baseball players during 1948 and 1949. All are Tulane graduates in my Dad's class or they had Interned with him.

After graduation he worked with Dr. Oscher in the Touro Infirmary and was recognized as intern of the year and later was offered a position in the clinic that Dr. Oscher was starting in New Orleans after the war. Instead my father chose to go to Fort Walton Beach in Northwest Florida and open a general practice as that area had no medical care at the time. This was front-line medicine dealing with all manner of treatment outside his office including house calls. Working with the local Congressman Bob Sikes they established a small hospital and attracted more doctors to the area. He was the doctor of record and call when US presidents came to visit the many armed forces bases in the area. He sat on the Florida medical exam board as well as being the head of the State Board of Health for some time. In the early 1970s he retired from medical practice.

In Memory of Johnny's Mother

This picture was taken in 1955 when my Mom (Eugenia) and I were at our Family Reunion. Eugenia Annie Mae Rudulph Maxon 1917- 1973 was born on the 9th of June 1917 in Selma, Alabama to Burwell Blount Rudulph and his 2nd wife, Caroline Caffey Rudulph. This was his 7th daughter and the first child of Caroline. Three of his daughters and his 1st wife died of scarlet fever during the epidemic that spread across the country.

Eugenia grew up at Cloverdale, the family place in Lowdnes county, near Hayneville Alabama that had been in the family since 1834. She was sent to De Funiak Springs to Palmer High school, a part of the Chataqua Movement at the time. She graduated from Wheaton College in Chicago in June of 1938 with a degree in British Literature. Her classmate and good friend was to become the famous Billy Graham. She married Robert von Purucker Maxon at the First Baptist Church In Montgomery Alabama on 25 June 1938.

For several years in the early 1970's she had been battling different cancers. We were together in London in 1973 and while going through the subway turn-style she hit her right side that released toxins in her liver that took her life very shortly within days. I loved my mother very much, but I must say over and over again I am reminded throughout my whole life of the importance of good liver health.
