Dr. McDougall Update

Postby John McDougall » Thu Oct 12, 2017 10:36 am

Mary and I are well and with family. All our material possessions are lost. The same for Heather's and Tiffany's families.

Our years of struggle against the established thinking regarding nutrition and many medical treatments of patients will continue. The McDougall Program is alive and well and will run Programs (10-day and 3-day), conduct webinars, newsletters, etc., with as few interruptions as possible.

We are so fortunate that our lives were spared.

There are no authorized donation programs - Do not donate to any you may see.

We are humbled by the many offers of help. We may have many unexpected financial pressures, and if we decide to seek any monetary help from you, our friends, we will let you know.

So very sorry to hear of your disaster and loss! But so glad you and your family are safe. We know the fears and devastation of fires all too well here in Australia.

Please take care of yourselves and each other and don't forget you have many people who are thinking of you and willing to help, in whatever small way they can. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Dr. McDougall - I am so glad to hear you and your family are safe. I wish you all the best as you move forward.

Your work inspired me to change my eating habits, and changed my life. Thank you for what you've done.
