Her chances of making it through the surgery and NOT becoming a vegetable were less than 1%. Of course, she made it. She then seemingly cured her chronic Crohn&#39;s Disease by simply deciding she didn&#39;t want it anymore and living her life in that manner. Then, without qualifications, experience or training, she started an Epic Adventure business and a hypnotherapy practice which are both thriving more than a decade later. On second thought, she&#39;s either a miracle or from another planet. Regardless, check out the latest episode of Middle Age Mess or find Amira at www.epicmauihikes.com.</p>]]></description>

But somehow, he figured out how to build hospitals all over the globe, some in the world&#39;s most neediest places.  Springing out of his experience in the Vietnam War, he has focused the last 50 years on improving the world&#39;s health care system, both now and in the future.  Along the way, he created a non-profit organization dedicated to providing medical care to the most underserved populations ever seen.

                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Jeff Hardy is not a doctor or a medical professional in any respect.  But somehow, he figured out how to build hospitals all over the globe, some in the world&amp;#39;s most neediest places.  Springing out of his experience in the Vietnam War, he has focused the last 50 years on improving the world&amp;#39;s health care system, both now and in the future.  Along the way, he created a non-profit organization dedicated to providing medical care to the most underserved populations ever seen.  Check him out at www.careforpeace.org or on this week&amp;#39;s episode of Middle Age Mess.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>
