The self-healing success of

Naim Abed

For as long as I can remember I felt different from others. I was always bothered by something and the older I got the clearer it became that I was no longer coming along.
Not in terms of growth, not in terms of weight, but also not doing fun things. Nice things were not nice, I got sick from everything and started to withdraw more and more into my own world. A world of pain, fear and a lot of stress, because participating in normal life took a lot of effort. In the long run, so much effort that I no longer knew what to do.
From the age of 3-4 my parents also knew that something was wrong. They visited many doctors and therapists, went in and out of the hospital, but no one could tell what was the matter with me  It was clear that my body was under tension. My parents thought about Lyme, but this was tested in the hospital when I was 8. It was not Lyme and so we were in the dark again. In the meantime I became insecure, because how could it be that I felt so bad when there was actually nothing wrong?

We discovered by chance that I did have Lyme disease

Just before I turned 12, in December 2017, life became too much for me, I couldn't go on. Fortunately, the search continued and we accidentally discovered through a bioresonance therapist that I did have Lyme disease. And a lot of co-infections. I was relieved, it was finally clear that my misery had an origin and that something could be done about it. Immediately I felt that the bioresonance had a lot of impact on my body. After a number of treatments, we went looking for a doctor who could officially make the diagnosis, because going to school was no longer feasible. I did blood tests and was diagnosed and had stopped the treatments with the bioresonance therapist.

Because it seemed to catch on, I wanted to continue with the bioresonance treatments. My parents searched all over the internet and when my mother read the stories of Erik and Tessa she burst into tears and told me that we were going to Amstelveen. These people understood my fight, my grief and frustration, and my parents', she said. The day she spoke to Tessa, she was so happy that someone understood her and made an appointment right away. No sooner said than done. The first time I came to Amstelveen I had trouble with everything. Walking, thinking, eating, sleeping. I had a lot of severe muscle twitching. I weighed less than 26 kilos when I was 12 years old. My body was so tired, I couldn't take off my own coat.

We were so well received by Tessa and Erik! We kept asking questions and talking, because it is great to talk to people who have experienced the same after more than 10 years.

Now, a year and a half later, I have become a different person! Life is livable, I almost fully participate again! Maybe I am a bit small and thin (but now have passed the 30 kilos!) For my age and tired a little faster. But I became myself, I didn't know who I was. I know that now. I am a boy who is going to recover completely from Lyme, who lives life with pleasure and energy. Someone who knows how tough a fight can be, but has learned from it. I am a go-getter.

In the group I talk to group members. Even though I am only 14 years old, I count and we cry, laugh and fight together. This environment has given me confidence and helped me gain confidence in my body. The hard start of my life has shaped me and I see my struggle as an experience that made me richer. I've met people I never would have met, I've been places I would never have been otherwise.

From the bottom of my heart: thank you Tessa and Erik, you are heroes!
