You don't drown by falling in the water.
You drown by staying there.

TO RICK SIMPSON OIL - CURE FOR CANCER
My honor Rick,
Hi Rick!
Let me start by introducing myself. My name is Aaron Avila. (My story)
I am creator of what has now evolved to a global stroke support network called Second Chance Stroke Survivors Worldwide.
I need to tell you I am spiritual (not religious). You see I truly believe it's my life's destiny I'm meeting you right now! Because I believe
Through what appeared
to be a bad thing ... (the story).
About a week ago my 23 year old son had what appeared to be a skin cancer growth on him. So he had a biopsy done.
While waiting for the test results his awesome mother and my amazing wife of 25+ years found you, your cure for cancer CBD Oil. Finding out this life changing cure for cancer gave his mom and I hope and a confidence knowing if our son did have cancer we have a cure!
Now here's where I feel the universe was using what appeared to be a bad thing but this was happening for us not to us.
Ryan's biopsy came back negative for cancer! (Extremely grateful) But now we were armed with the life changing knowledge of CBD Oil.
So Rick here's why I believe this all happened!
As creator of a global support group for stroke survivors and watch numerous videos and countless hours of research, I have every reason to believe that your oil will be a life changing groundbreaking breakthrough for my stroke survivors worldwide! You agree?
Please contact me via email at: aaronsstrokechronicles@gmail.com
I'm extremely excited to speak with you!
Sincerely,
Aaron Avila
CEO Second Chance Stroke Survivors Worldwide

Jeffrey Hayzlett will you teach me how to fish?
Give a man a fish
he will eat for a day,
teach a man to fish,
you feed him for life!
Hi Jeff!
You and I have talked in the past and I want to say it's a total humbling honor to have a man of your caliber talk to me!
For I am a 1/2 paralyzed wheelchair bound stroke survivor. (My story)
Jeff,
I'm not going to ask you for a fish but rather teach me how to fish.
You see since my stroke, September 17th 2010 my family has survived (Thanks to my soulmate Rebecca) on just my disability of under $19,000 a year.
Now we are being faced with an even more scary situation! My stellar 23 year old son Ryan may have cancer! Biopsy test results today or Monday.
I realized yesterday that my stroke survival was not just for me but it was for them! Because my family needs me! (If interested my near death experience)
So please brother I know you're extremely busy but I need your help!
I cry from the very core of who I am as a man!
I MUST LEARN TO SADDLE UP AND RIDE! I MUST THINK BIG ACT BIGGER! MY FAMILY NEEDS ME TO!
Jeff, please consider giving me advice how to turn my visions into money my awesome family so desperately needs.
Current idea! Put out on Twitter and no response? My vision!
Another company vision I'm building. Jeff, here's the company Blog I'm building.
I've started putting my vision under each tab.
Please email your decision.
aaronsstrokechronicles@gmail.com
My best to you and your family,
Aaron Avila

#AaronsDidYouKnow Gemma
Hi peeps!
Did you know that we own a fully grown 3 year old 4 pound teacup Yorkshire Terrior named Gemma? Well, now you do!
I had to share this because I've never in my life seen such a thing!
Gemma has established a relationship with several birds!
YES! I SAID BIRDS!
Mainly a California Towhee and several crows!
She runs around the yard barking (calling them) and out of nowhere crows or sometimes her Towhee land on the roof next door and squawk at her (animal talk) and they begin to banter back and forth! AMAZING TO WATCH!
But something happened the other day that was this short of miraculous!
The California Towhee flew from the roof of the house, landed on Gemma's back and they got in a bit of a tussle! WHAT!
None of us could believe what we were seeing!

#WhatsOnAaronsMind 6/9/16
Peeps listen! Take it from someone who has almost lost his life. Your life is to short and to precious to want anyone to bring negative energy and drama in it! The only ones that will argue with this are the ones. I only speak 100% truth peeps!

WAM = #WhatsOnAaronsMind
WAM = What's On Aaron's Mind #WhatsOnAaronsMind
You would think the brain being damaged would sleep so it heals?
OH HELL NO!
Let's give us stroke survivors an EXTREMELY frustrating no sleep disorder!
Making recovery that much more difficult!
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

#AaronsBucketList
Okay peeps,
Been up since 12:30am very sleep deprived, riddled with pain from my rolling prison (wheelchair).
Funny thing is, it's during these times I receive some of my most profound insights and inspiration.
I believe it's my Yin & Yang.
So trying to nap usually turns into my quiet time of prayer and talking to God. It's what real prayer is. It's us, man, talking with God as if you were talking to your best friend. Not the hollow words of man made religion. Man's religion is just lifeless words. A clanging symbol.
Sorry! I hate what man made religion has done to mankind! Gives him a false sense of being okay in God's eyes! When he 100% is not!
Okay I'll save it for an episode of Aaron's Spiritual Sunday! Tune in! lol
Anyway, so I'm laying there praying, I become overwhelmed with emotion! Begin to cry from my very core as a man.
BUCKET LIST #1
I begin to visualize Rebecca and I walking hand in hand (using my affected left side) on the beach enjoying an awesome sunset. I see myself drop to the sand and I'm overcome with a deep to my core gratefulness I didn't have in my "First Chance" (before stroke)!
I cry out loud!
THANK YOU! WITH EVERY FIBER OF WHO I AM THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME LIVE! TO WALK HAND WITH THE MOST INCREDIBLE WOMEN ON PLANET EARTH, MY SOUL MATE WHOSE LOVE COMPELLED ME TO CHOOSE LIFE IN MY NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCE. MY EVERYTHING REBECCA AVILA.
I can hear the roar of the surf now in my mind's eye.
#2 On My Bucket List
Hug a mighty Redwood Tree in Armstrong Grove.
To smell the amazing sweet smell the mighty Redwood fills the air with. So intoxicating is this smell of a mighty Redwood, I can smell it my mind's eye.
Boy, you sure can tell I'm trying something different.
So I've done quite a bit of research on the human brain since my stroke. And most current Neuroscientists believe the human brain is so amazing it doesn't differentiate between something actually happening versus visualizing something happening (like visualizing using our stroke affected arm).
So starting today I'm going to start on a daily basis, going to start visualizing myself walking on a beach with Rebecca or hugging a mighty Redwood Tree. If my and others theory holds true, someday what I visualize my body will start doing one day. Figure it can't hurt! I'll update you from time to time.
I almost forgot to tell you the rest!
So I begin to cry a deep cry and say to God, Please, please God let me do these things before my circle of life is over on planet earth!
You know peeps? I feel I will!
GOOOOOOOOOO! STROKE SURVIVORS!
STAY AWESOME!
Until next time,
Awesome stroke survivor up up and away! lmao

2nd request! Please help me! Stroke Survivor, Abscess tooth, No money, Haven't slept in 2 days.
Peeps!
I'm so sorry I have to ask for help on Twitter but my stroke survival has humbled me to that point.
Never in my wildest dream did I ever see myself in this situation in life! The devastating ripple effect of stroke is unfathomable! My story.
Due to my stroke September 17th 2010 and it's cataclysmic decimation of all my family's finances, we have 0 money.
I have no other choice than to reach out to my fellow human beings in hopes one of you may be in a financial place to help me?
My stroke took all my fine motor skills away, making it impossible to floss properly since September 17th 2010.
I haven't ever had great teeth but throw in my inability to floss since 2010. Well let's just say I have no opposing teeth left making eating extremely difficult.
Here is a letter I wrote last week with no reply.
The minimum I need is for you to help me by covering the cost to get the problem tooth extracted along with antibiotics I'll need. (You will pay the Dentist directly).
If you have been blessed financially and can solve my dental issue that would would allow me to live out my circle of life on planet earth with no dental issues. It would be to cover the cost to have all my remaining teeth extracted and get dental implants.
Either way it will be an amazing miracle to me!
So, If you can help me contact my wife Rebecca via Facebook or Email. If you send me an email, I'll give you Rebecca's cell number.
With all my heart,
Thank You!
