The Call

Hey everyone, this is my first ever requested prompt. I didn’t include Erin because, while I lover her, she isn’t going to be in the show anymore so I thought it best to leave her out. I hope you enjoy!

Prompt: “Intelligence gets called for a hostage situation in the ED, but Will gets badly injured and Jay is worried AF while he doesn't want to admit it :p Some good old fashioned angst would be cool. Make someone die if you feel up to it. Enjoy! :)” - @monicaaaaatje

Word Count: 2063

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Chicago PD/Med characters but I definitely enjoying writing for them ;)

There was never a normal day in the intelligence unit, unlike a typical 9-5 office job Jay couldn't count on anything being 'normal.' That being said, he never expected to get The Call. You know, The Call. In movies or tv shows it the one that sets everything in motion by tearing someone's world apart.

The phone rang and Voight picked it up from his office and he was on his feet and grabbing his jacket before the unit knew anything.

"Let's go, gear up we have a hostage situation." He said.

"Where?" Atwater asked while everyone followed suit and put jackets on their backs and guns on their hips.

He hesitated and looked at Jay before responding. "Chicago med." he waited for Jay to process.

After years in the service and on the force it took a lot to shake Jay. He'd seen some truly gut wrenching things, but imagining his brother and friends at the hospital being trapped and possibly hurt, or worse, made his stomach turn. But in true Halstead fashion he kept his composure on the outside.

"What do we know?" He asked. All eyes were on him.

"Nothing yet. Just that there's someone with a gun in the ED." Voight explained. "Let's go," he added noticing everyone waiting for one of them to make a move.

Upon arrival all anyone could see in any direction was flashing lights. Police cars, police vans, ambulances, you name it.

Jay was coming out of his skin. He'd kept fairly calm but now, being here, he was starting to fall apart.

"Who's in charge?" Voight found the main command tent they had set up.

"I am, Sergeant." Jay tuned out at his name and rank knowing Voight would be in control within a few minutes.

"What's going on? Any contact yet?" He pulled at his vest in front of him, a habit he'd picked up.

"Two phone calls one from us to them, one from them to us. We know there are 6 patients, 3 doctors and 4 nurses inside, all the people from the waiting room were able to get out. One doctor has been shot, we are unaware who or how bad." Jay's head went fuzzy for a minute. Like someone turned his brain to 11 and he couldn't handle it. White noise sloshed around his head from ear to ear and back again before Olinski's voice pulled him back.

"Halstead, Jay!" He yelled.

"I have to go in," he started pushing by everyone.

"Jay! Absolutely not," Voight grabbed his arm and pulled him back.

"That's my brother in there! You want me to sit and do nothing?!" He yelled finally snapping. Voight wasn't upset, he'd expected it, hell he'd bet it would have happened sooner.

"No, I expect you to sit your ass down while we figure out what the hell's going on." He guided him back to the tent. He didn't sit. He paced. He waited for 15 excruciating minutes while everyone around him ran in circles and did next to nothing.

In those 15 minutes they had learned the man inside waving a gun around called himself Trent. Trent Williamson. After doing some digging the unit found out his wife died in the hospital 5 months ago. She had a brain tumor and refused chemo because it was already in its later stages.

"Ruzek you're going in," Voight said.

"Sarg, just le-"

"No Halstead. Take a back seat on this one." Hank interrupted the young detective.

Jay had no intention of listening. Adam took off his holster and set his gun next to it, he then unstrapped his ankle gun placed it in a line next to his 9mm.

"You ready?" Voight asked him. He nodded and they all watched as he walked past the police line with his hands in the air. Jay inched his way closer and closer to the barricades and was about to sprint in front of them when a hand caught the back of his vest.

"Don't do it. You're just going to get yourself or your someone else killed." Alvin said quietly. Jay took a deep breath and let Alvin drag him back.

"Ruzek has a microphone in his pocket, we're gonna be able to hear everything okay, I want snipers ready! Nobody takes a shot unless I give the go ahead, go it?" Voight was handing out orders left and right but Jay was just focused on hearing his brother's voice come through the speaker.

"Come on. Come on Will. Talk to me. Please." He wasn't sure if he was saying it out loud or not but he didn't care.

"Hello Mr. Williamson, can I call you Trent?" There was no shakiness in Adam's voice, he was rock solid.

"Yeah- whatever!" There was a man who was not rock solid. He sounded as unstable as they come. "Did they tell you what I want?" He hissed.

"They did, they said you wanted to see your wife."

"Her name is Anna!"

"Right, Anna, they said you wanted to see Anna. While they work on that do you think I could send these people back outside? You have me in here now, you don't need them."

"No! No! They stay! I'm not an idiot!"

"Of course not, but if you know how these things work you know I have to send somebody out there. They need some good faith from you?"

He waited to answer. They heard shuffling.

"She can leave."

"Okay, Natalie can you walk?" Adam asked.

"No," they heard a muffled voice coming from her.

"Trent, could one of them push her out on a gurney? You still have plenty of hostages here."

"Just go! Quickly!" He ushered. Then nothing. The mic quit responding and the unit was left standing in a circle wondering what the hell just happened.

"COMING OUT!" Somebody yelled. Across the barricades they saw a patient pushing Natalie out in a wheelchair. Blood was pouring out of Natalie's thigh and her entire pant leg looked sopping wet with the deep red substance.

Once they were across the line everyone swarmed the two of them. Natalie was out in an ambulance and shipped off before Jay could ask her anything but the man, the one that pushed her out was sitting in the back of an ambulance with a shock blanket wrapped around his shoulders.

Jay pushed through and interrupted what ever question he was answering.

"Tall redhead, doctor, you see him in there? Is he okay?"

"Uh, yeah," the guy sounded terrified. "He was trying to help the lady doctor. The one who got shot. He kept telling the guy to keep him and let everyone else go." He said shakily.

"God dammit," Jay mumbled. "But he was alright?"

"Yeah but I was real afraid he was gonna go hero. He was itching to tackle the guy."

"No no no," Jay had heard all he needed to.

"Hank please, you have to let me go in there. He's gonna get himself killed." He begged.

"Adam is in there, talking him down. You know how delicate this is. You need to back off before I have you removed." Voight warned. Not 10 seconds later a shot could be heard from in the hospital.

"NOBODY MOVE YET!" Voight screamed from the front of the barricades. They waited. They waited. They waited some more. Jay thought he was going to pass out. He kept picturing his brother bleeding out and screaming for help.

Finally the hospital doors flung open and people ran out. Jay pushed past the front lines and ran towards the door, the line of people stopped and his brother was yet to be seen.

He ran inside the hospital and saw Adam cuffing who he assumed to be Trent and Will sitting, propped up against a wall next to them holding his shoulder.

Officers started filling in around them but Jay made a B line to his little brother and squatted in front of him. Will looked up at him and seemed fairly unfazed by the bullet hole in his arm. He was no doubt in shock.

"What happened? Are you okay? What the fuck!?" The questions flew out of Jay's mouth.

"I got shot," Will winced.

"How?!" Jay wasn't sure how to process.

"Just relax. It's just a scratch, I'll be fine." Will waved him off and tried to stand up. It resulted in him going pale and then sliding back down the wall with Jay guiding him so that he didn't just crash.

"Can I get some fucking help over here!" Jay turned and screamed.

Immediately Will was lifted up and set on a gurney and Dawson and Brett wheeled him out.

"Is he going to be okay?" Jay asked trailing right behind them.

"Looks like it. He's just gonna be really sore. Plus he's lost a good amount of blood so he'll be out in a few minutes but he's gonna be fine Jay." Gabby answered. Jay let out the breath he'd been holding in for what seemed like years but had only been hours.

"How the hell did you get shot?" Jay asked as they set up the IV.

"Tackled 'im." Will was quiet as he said it. Partly because he was moments away from passing out and partly because he knew how his brother was going to react.

"You what?" Jay raised an eyebrow.

"Jay, I'm putting an oxygen mask on him. He's not gonna be able to talk." Gabby explained as Sylvie started driving to the next closest hospital as Med was currently a crime scene.

"You better hope that that was you're delusional self getting shit mixed up because if I find out you tackled a crazy guy with a gun I'm going to fucking kill you Will." Jay threatened. Will responded by passing out.

At the hospital Jay waiting in Will's room, bedside, for him to wake up. His surgery was short, they just needed to get the bullet out and stitch him up. The surgeon had assured him Will would be back to his smart ass self soon.

"He saved my life ya know?" Jay looked up, a little startled until he recognized Adam. "I had the guy talked into letting everybody out. But something happened, I'm still not sure what, but he snapped. Lost it and started screaming about how we'd all meet his wife soon. He pointed his gun at me and Will came out of nowhere and knocked him over. Before I could even respond the gun went off." Adam said.

"I'm glad you're both alive." Jay smiled lightly.

"Tell him I said thanks when he wakes up." Adam took the hint to give him some space and left. There were more visitors in the next few hours but Jay was the only one there when Will woke up.

"Hey," Jay said from his chair.

"Ugh," Will groaned.

"How ya feelin'?"

"Like shit, how do I look?" He grinned.

"Even worse." Jay smiled back. "Come on, give me a hug." Jay stood up and Will pushed himself forward a little bit and allowed Jay to wrap his arms around him. He was careful not to touch his left arm or shoulder, they were covered in the cloth from a sling.

"How's Nat?" Will asked worried.

"She fine, just got out of surgery. She's gonna be okay." He said. Will nodded letting out a deep breath.

"Adam says thanks." Jay said once he was back in his chair. He had his eyebrow quirked up to let his brother know he was pissed.

"What was I supposed to do Jay? Let the guy shoot Adam then all of us?" He sighed.

"No. Just- I don't know." He huffed. After a few moments of silence he broke. "I'm proud of you. You did what I would do. But if you ever do it again I'll kick your ass." Jay smiled lightly.

"Yeah yeah, whatever." Will laughed, stopping to groan at his shoulder.

"I'll go get your doc," Jay left the room and did what he said, he found Will's doctor and told him Will was awake but he made a stop on his way back. He found himself in the men's bathroom, crying. He hadn't cried in, in he didn't know how long. He just couldn't stop thinking about how the call could have gone so differently.

So this month is apparently my month. May is both Medical Health Awareness Month and Brain Tumor Awareness Month.

Look everyone, I’ve made a thing!

To be honest, I hesitated before posting this, especially since I’m getting to know people much better. I had some shit to deal with, and I was pretty graceless about it at points. I only hope that my sharing this both encourages understanding for people who’ve gone down my path and also brings you all some happiness. Seriously it breaks my heart to hear what some of my loved ones are going through, and I want them to know that even if your world feels like it’s ending, there’s hope.

I thought I had everything planned out at the age of 15. I was going to go to Stanford and become a pediatrician, my life calling. Through high school, I worked roughly 90 hours a week, between school, homework, and my extracurriculars (co-captain of the tennis team, swim, cross-country, National Honors Society, weekly volunteer work at the hospital, and Amnesty International). I even made it on the news, with the title “Future Doctor” under my name. I had a 4.7 GPA and the burning passion of a million suns.

I was literally EN FUEGO. But

Headaches. Horrible headaches. I gained 30 pounds (that’s 14 kg) in a single month, while eating very healthily and exercising vigorously. Then deep as hell depression. And daily hallucinations. I literally felt like I was losing my mind. My blood chemistry levels were swinging around like they were on crack, but no one could figure out what was going on.

My mom (dad was gone) told me I was being melodramatic and looked fat and disgusting as hell. She’d roll her eyes when I’d react to my hallucinations. I went to doctors who reassured me “Puberty is difficult for everyone.”

At the very least, she continued to send me to hospitals throughout the Los Angeles area. Finally, they decide to scan my head to ��rule it out.” I lay there with a cage on my face and was serenaded for 40 minutes by what sounded like the mating call of a dozen fax machines.

ADVENTURE TIME ! ! !

I was called back into the hospital (UCLA) in a matter of days, which is strange on account of the fact that most people have to wait months. When I see my doctor there, suddenly a neurosurgeon walks into the room. “Okay, that’s weird.”

He slaps an image of my brain up on the wall, points to it, and says, “You’ve got something there.”

He said it kinda like he was telling me I had spinach in my team.

“What?”

“A brain tumor.”

For a few months, peoples’ attitudes changed. My mom told me about a dozen times a day that I was going to be okay. I think she was reassuring herself more than me. I was a little worried, but more than that, I was happy. It was proof that I wasn’t crazy. And most importantly, there was something in my brain that could be removed. I could actually be normal again! No one understood how much I’d been suffering all along.

By the way, the niceness lasted for a few months. Went away after that, then back into the abuse.

I’m going to take a minute out and say something. I’m sure tons of people reading this have gone through hard times, especially around that age, and were not taken seriously. Listen, I had a fucking brain tumor and was still dismissed. I took it personally and felt like a piece of crap, though now I look back and see how wrong it was. I’m really sorry for those of you in a similar situation. All I can do is advise you not to let that guilt you into thinking your struggles are inconsequential, though I did a shit job of that myself. I love you all.

-ahem- Back into it then…

The physical pain stayed constant, but the psychological issues exploded. I always remember that I’d be standing in a room, then everything in my field of vision became neon. The room would stretch out for what seemed like miles, and my ears would ring so loudly it hurt. Then random shit (looked like humanoid figures) would come out at me. Terrifying.

My mom again insisted I was being dramatic. It was a house of cards, and as it was bound to, it fell. I injured myself pretty badly and was sent to a psych ward (at UCLA) for a week. I was still holding on to that dream of becoming a pediatrician, but in all honesty, I didn’t know if I’d be alive that far into the future.

No one close in my life was supportive. They viewed this as me just being “dramatic.” They diagnosed me with Bipolar Disorder in the ward.

My psych state continued to deteriorate to the point that I lost touch with reality. The depression was as crushing as death, and I saw no reason why anyone would want to live. Life was just a pointless dream. I took a bunch of pills one night and was rushed to the hospital by ambulance. I was in a coma for about 3 days and nearly died.

I woke up in the Intensive Care Unit, confused as to how I’d gotten there (I had no memory) but also not really caring. My family was screaming at me about how close I’d come to death, but the most they’d get out of me was a shrug. They sent me back to the UCLA psych ward, and literally, I was sent back to the very same room.

I don’t know how, but through all of that shit, I kept my grades up. I still had a 4.7 GPA when I got out of high school. I scored a free ride to UCLA, the same place where I’d found out about my brain tumor, and the place where I’d been kept in a psych ward twice. Crazy. Meanwhile, the tumor grew and bled into my surrounding brain tissue.

But the depression just kept getting worse, and so did the hypomania that accompanies Bipolar. I kept having blank periods and would wake up in the ICU, again with screaming and crying family members. I didn’t want to die anymore, so I was very upset by this. I wouldn’t even remember trying to take my life, so it literally felt like I just went to bed and woke up in the hospital. That happened at least three times, maybe more.

I got into the drugs (literally the worst ones) and became addicted to them. Bipolar is tricky, and my mood would swing. At some points, I was so depressed and disillusioned. I would often say, “I’m not making it to my 30’s.” I accepted that as a fact. So who cares if I’m addicted to shit? Becoming a pediatrician was a pipe dream. Something’s going to knock me out, either the drugs, my psych issues, or the brain tumor. Whatever.

Then I’d come out of that depressed stupor and realize, “Holy FUCK, what am I doing with my life?!”

Sober up. Then relapse. Then sober up. Eventually, I got so sick physically that I could hardly leave my house. That ended the drug use.

My treatment team was fairly large, and all of them were well renowned. I’d been told by different ones that I was risking going blind by not having surgery. Others said that the surgery was just too dangerous and would itself risk my vision, could lead me to have a stroke, or could, ya know, kill me. One doctor thought I needed my hypothalamus removed, which I previously didn’t even realize was a thing.

I started having something called cluster headaches. These are informally called “suicide headaches,” and are debated to be the most painful medical condition in existence, worse even than childbirth. I spent about 70% of my waking hours having those for months. I thought I’d known pain before. I didn’t know jack shit, but I sure learned fast.

I was then too sick to go to school. It was obvious, but the final straw was when I went to take my finals and passed out on the lawn for several hours. When I came to, my head was screaming, and my vision was blocked by large neon splotches. I told my mom thought I couldn’t go to school the next quarter. She said that if I didn’t work or go to school, I had no place to stay.

Enter: Homelessness!

At that point, I was beyond fucked. I had nowhere to go. For about a week, I stayed on my best friend’s couch. His house was literally a drug den, and basically shit was never farther than a few feet from my head. I started using again, and that was probably the darkest point.

I had no home, was critically ill, had no money or food, and was on drugs. I’d had to drop out of college, and my goal of becoming a pediatrician was laughably far away. Looked like the end of the road.

The homeless shelters were full, and I was totally prepared to get a sleeping bag and camp out under a bridge. Possibly just die there. Thank the lord, my fiance’s family decided to take me in. I lived there for months, not leaving the house even once, not even a mailbox trip. I was in excruciating pain every single day. Ironically, even though I was at my sickest physically, I was recovering psychologically. I wrote stories and loved to play Guitar Hero during what few comfortable hours I had.

I’ll still remember that early 2009, the headaches became drastically rarer. The tumor was growing slightly but no longer bleeding into my brain tissue. I thought, “Oh my god, what if I can finish college after all?”

It was a huge risk, but I flew out to California to finish up at UCLA. I was in horrible pain. I’d study over a puke bucket and with 2 pairs of shades on in the dark, with the text the size of my palm. I was seeing double. It didn’t matter to me that I had a sad story, or if it was “understandable” if I gave up. No one could save me from the consequences of that, so I pushed through.

Every day I walked to class, I passed by the old psych ward I’d stayed at. It just loomed there, monolithic and so tall. It felt like at any moment I’d be sucked back into its gravitational pull. Like being the slightest bit functional was just a brief gift, and I’d soon go back to where I belonged.

I finished my first quarter. Straight A’s.

I was so fucking proud of myself.

Another quarter came and went, and despite all the pain, I got 3 A’s and one A-. Passing by the ward one day, I took the elevator up to the ward’s floor. I wanted to face the past. The thought occurred to me that this time, I was coming here on my own free will. I was here to get an education and improve my life. Ever since that day, when I passed that building, I felt a swelling sense of pride and victory. I was on the right track again. Totally taking life by the huevos.

That quarter they found another tumor on me, in my adrenals. I didn’t let it throw me off much, because seriously nothing could rattle me at this point. I did admit to myself that becoming a pediatrician was not a wise path for me anymore. My health and immune system were too poor to make it through medical school, let alone residency. And even after that, I’d constantly be exposed to pathogens from my patients. Even now, I’m nowhere near healthy enough for that.

So it was time for Plan B. I studied economics, which I didn’t realize until later interested me like crazy.

I graduated from UCLA with a 3.4. It was nothing fancy, but it was by far the greatest accomplishment I’ve ever had in my life. To this day, I am so incredibly proud of myself for that. I know that I can take whatever life dishes out and throw it right back in that bitch’s face.

The recession was deep when I graduated, so I decided to go to grad school. I passed with a 3.7 GPA, and the brain tumor stopped growing. We don’t even know why.

Flash forward to now.

I’m still mentally ill. I take about 7 medications a day. Sometimes I’ll still have hallucinations and cluster headaches. This shit doesn’t just disappear.

My family likes to pretend that they’d been so supportive about the horrible things I’d had to go through.

But the fact is that I’m working a relatively high paying job and am engaged to a wonderful person whom I’ve been with for 11 years. I’ve traveled to twenty different countries (and counting) since I graduated from grad school, one of my greatest life goals. I lost all those excess pounds and am training now to run a half marathon. I’m passionate about life and like to think that I’ve helped some people in life-changing ways. I look back and can’t believe that I made it, but I did.

I went from homeless, penniless, and critically ill to being comfortable, having a healthy relationship, and traveling the world.

What freaks me out is how damned close I’d come to ending it. People tell you “It gets better” all the time. I know it sounds like trite bullshit, but it’s true. You have to be strong and adaptable, but I truly do believe in resiliency of the human spirit.

Nobody asked for my advice, but I went through hell to learn it, so I’m sharing. Never let life take more from you than it absolutely must. If you’ve never been truly tested, you would be shocked at how adaptable and resilient people can be. Don’t give up; as they say, this too shall pass. It’s okay if you don’t have your shit figured out yet, I promise you.

Please don’t compare yourself to others who might have had a “more difficult” life and chide yourself for hurting. You have every right to feel as you do and do not deserve to be dismissed. If you beat yourself up for feeling the way you do, you’ll only be weaker in the end.

Oh yeah, and also...

And for those who need help, I am here.

Food, Health & You - Complete Implementation System

Food, Health & You - Complete Implementation System

Buy Now

Hi there,

If you want a chance to possibly add decades to your life, lose weight and avoid some life-threatening illnesses, I want you pay close attention as I explain exactly why the modern food industry is designed to keep you unhealthy AND addicted as long as possible.

I’ll also show you how to beat them at their own game and prevent all those preventable illnesses that come from eating their “Frankenstein foods.”

And you can do that while burning fat and having boundless amounts of energy in the process!

Plus, you don’t have to resort to crash dieting or fad diets that could wreck your metabolism and cause you to put on the pounds even more.

As the saying goes, “Health is wealth,” and I couldn’t agree more.

Being in great shape means being more productive at work and taking fewer sick days (if any).

But most of all, you won’t have to bleed your savings dry from medical bills!

So being healthy not only benefits you physically and mentally but financially, too!

You might be wondering, “How is this all possible?”

Well, I had my own share of health struggles not too long ago…

Yes, it was the big “C,” and this harrowing experience had an effect on me.

But it wasn’t all bad. If anything, my challenges sent me on a personal quest to learn all I can about the hidden link between what you eat and the quality of your life.

After doing my own research as a medical professional and connecting with the leading experts in health and nutrition…

…I ended up discovering a number of revolutionary, natural illness-prevention methods with the science to back it up.

Let’s just say it’s not in their best interests if everyone learned the truth.

And today, you’re about to take your first step into a world that most people only dream about.

I’m talking about a world where you can enjoy your life AND not be overweight or exhausted all the time.

You’ll finally be free of the grip of processed food that’s slowly poisoning everyone…

…and escape the prison of unhealthy habits and poor lifestyle choices.

What I’m offering you right now is a different kind of freedom that will allow your body to function the way nature intended.

Just imagine what you could accomplish if you were always running at 100%. Think about the impact that would make on your career, as well as your personal and professional relationships.

That’s why I’m inviting you to be part of a growing revolution that rejects the lies that the pharmaceutical industry has been drilling into our heads for DECADES.

In my opinion, we’ve been told that their drugs are the ONLY way to cure illness, but you’re about to learn that this is the farthest thing from the truth.

And I believe we should not forget the food companies and their disingenuous marketing teams who trick us into thinking their cheap, processed foods are ‘healthy’ or ‘low-fat.

I’m excited to show you how to get out from under that and join thousands of other people who are now enjoying a truly healthy lifestyle that’s completely sustainable.

Now, before we go on, I’d like to share a little about myself. I firmly believe that my experiences put me on a path that’s ultimately lead me to YOU…

…along with many others who’ve benefited from the discoveries I’ve made over the years.

So who am I, and why should you listen to me?

My name is Dr. Carl Bamlet – I’m a chiropractor, certified nutrition specialist and a modern caveman.

I almost lost my life when I was just 19 years old. After enduring long months of excruciating headaches and blurred vision, it turned out I had something called pineal germinoma…

…otherwise known as brain cancer.

This illness turned my world upside down. I dropped out of college to undergo chemotherapy and radiation.

On top of that, I went through two brain surgeries and the drugs I had to take made me weak and sick all the time.

I was terrified of what my life had become.

The surgeries removed my tumor, but I was told there was still a significant chance of my cancer coming back in the years to come.

At less than 20 years old, it felt like a death sentence hanging over my head.

But it’s not the end of the world…

I thought to myself that I had to find a positive lining no matter how devastating my condition was.

And that’s what I did…

I was determined to take back my health.

My mission was clear: I had to figure out what I could do to rid myself of cancer, and maintain my cancer-free prognosis and live a long, full life.

I didn’t just want to fight cancer… I also wanted to help others like me find the answers to the same questions I had.

As I course through life, I became more and more aware of all of the people around me who were falling victim to crippling conditions such as obesity, heart illness, and Type 2 diabetes.

I saw my friends tragically lose their parents at a young age. Many of my family members also suffered.

I felt powerless as I watched their health decline – it seemed like there was nothing I could do.

So, I wanted to empower myself and find a way to do something about this situation.

Thus, I began my journey into the world of natural illness prevention.

I made it my life’s mission to uncover the scientific truth of how you can take back your health, lose weight, and enjoy a long, happy, illness-free life.

I studied nutrition and chiropractic medicine in college. After that, I finished my doctorate as a chiropractor and went on to complete a postgraduate certificate in acupuncture.

However, I expanded my learning beyond the Western model of medicine because I didn’t get ALL the answers I was looking for.

So, I studied holistic medicine which included Eastern medical practices. I discovered incredible results when it came to natural illness prevention and reversal.

I sought experts all over the world and interviewed them. This helped me uncover a new approach to treating illnesses that I didn’t know about until now.

I investigated the claims of drug companies and pored over the results of their studies. I had to find out for myself if their claims were true…

…or if they were just pulling the wool over people’s eyes and exploiting an overfed and undernourished public.

Since then, I’ve worked with hundreds of patients and personally witnessed a lot of success stories.

Most of them weren’t getting results with the traditional approach…

…so they tried a different method which radically transformed their lives.

Slowly but surely, I put the pieces of the puzzle together. Throughout my journey, I applied the precious bits of hard-earned knowledge I picked up along the way.

Not only did my health improve, but I also managed to turn around my situation completely.

I am fitter and healthier than I have ever been.

It’s all because I discovered the nutritional truth behind the simple lifestyle changes that you can make, starting today…

…and these changes will create a MASSIVE impact on every aspect of your well-being.

But I’m not just talking about preventing illnesses such as cancer, obesity, heart illness, and type 2 diabetes. Using this simple but powerful lifestyle shift, you’ll also:

Lose weight and burn fat naturally AND effortlessly

Put the glow back in your hair and skin

Sharpen your mental focus like never before

Develop a strong and healthy body that can naturally resist some illnesses.

This cutting-edge program is a Complete Implementation System for optimizing nutritional health, and it’s the culmination of my life’s work up to this point.

I couldn’t find anything out there like this, so I decided to create it to make a big difference in this world.

It contains the full recordings of the 8-part program (the original Food, Health, & You docuseries), PLUS several critical additions…

You’ll also receive 4 of the previously unseen episodes which haven’t been released to the general public – until now. These additional episodes are really important for you and your family’s health.

Also, you’ll receive companion guides that go with each episode to make it easier to go back to any of the episodes and quickly recap the information you want.

And you’ll get a few other FREE gifts which you’ll learn about in just a bit, so watch out for that…

In my opinion, this was the result of natural illness preventions and lifestyle changes that Big Pharma corporations and food companies don’t want you to know about!

You’ll also hear about my own journey with cancer, and what I did to change my life and make sure it would never haunt me again. Follow me as I go around the world to get direct access to life-saving information that most people will never have.

Thanks to the valuable insights you’ll get from this revolutionary series, you’ll able to achieve the following:

Prevent illness – Follow my plan to boost your immune system, improve your gut health, balance your hormones, optimize your metabolism, and so much more…

Manage your health – If you or your loved ones have been diagnosed with conditions like type 2 diabetes or autoimmune disease… or suffering from chronic systemic inflammation (which can lead to serious complications)… then you need to follow the recommendations from the experts you’ll meet in this series. You’ll acquire the tools to guide yourself or your loved ones back into good health.

Chance To Live Longer– I want you to live a full, healthy life filled with energy and vitality for decades to come!

The Food, Health, & You Complete Implementation System features a series of modules that contain shocking revelations and valuable information to put you on the path to excellent, long-term health. We’ll show you exactly how to heal you from the inside with the right foods to supercharge your immune system.

So, each module features an episode from the original Food, Health, & You Complete Implementation System. Here’s a quick overview:

In Episode 1 (The Scary Truth About Sugar), you’ll discover the real reason why the so-called “expert” advice of eating less and exercising more is counterproductive from a nutritional standpoint. In fact, you’ll stand to gain even more weight and destroy your metabolism in the process!

You’ll discover the reasons why Type 2 diabetes, cancer, heart illness, dementia, and obesity are increasing at a terrifying rate… and find out what really works when it comes to preventing these illnesses.

In Episode 2 (How To Burn Fat and Lose Weight), you’ll learn why you should stop counting calories if you want to lose weight quickly AND safely. (Hint: the secret to effortless and sustainable weight loss is WAY simpler than you think!).

For the longest time, we’ve been led to think that we need to cut down on calories and spend a good chunk of our time working out. But this outdated approach isn’t just counterproductive, but also dangerous!

Episode 3 (The Truth About Diabetes) reveals the solution to what experts are calling ��a lifestyle-driven epidemic.” Learn how to put yourself in charge of your dietary choices so you can prevent type 2 diabetes or turn it around.

Most people don’t realize how their eating habits are sabotaging their metabolism. A lot of foods cause a huge spike in our blood sugar, which could lead to hormonal imbalance, insulin resistance and ultimately, type 2 diabetes. And things only get worse from there – it could also open the door to chronic inflammation and even cancer!

In Episode 4 (Gut Health), you’ll discover how the unique ecosystem of your gut bacteria affects your overall health (and how to keep it in perfect balance).

Uncover the real reasons why your digestive system is at the root of all of your health concerns, whether it’s your immune system, mental health, or even the general quality of your life!

You can use this knowledge to heal your body inside out, boost your energy levels, lift your brain fog, lose weight, and more.

In Episode 5 (Problems with Gluten and Gluten Free, What Next?), we expose the truth about gluten and a ‘gluten-free’ diet. Don’t fall for the trap of weeding gluten from your diet and replacing it with something just as unhealthy!

Become an expert on identifying gluten-free “junk foods” so you can steer clear of them and avoid feeling sick.

In Episode 6 (Fighting Cancer With Nutrition), we’ll tackle the big “C.” Discover why cancer is like a plant and how our environment causes it to thrive.

Understand the importance of epigenetics and the role it plays in your personal cancer risk. Which people get cancer and what can you do to avoid it?

Episode 7 (Sleep, Toxins, and Autoimmune Wellness), shows you what to do if you have a type of autoimmune disease.

We’ll help you negotiate your way through treatment options and learn how to manage this condition – and even keep it at bay for good. Finally, you’ll get the answers you need and stop your immune system from attacking you!

In Episode 8 (Are Fake Sweeteners Worse Than Sugar?) we find out the shocking truth about the shortening life expectancy of our children’s and grandchildren’s generations.

We’re living in a time where brightly-colored artificial food is cleverly designed to appeal to the senses – but offer ZERO nutrition. Learn how to see through the clever marketing of so-called “health foods” before it’s too late.

Discover how the science behind ‘sugar dysregulation’ is slowly killing us – and how to STOP it!

Join me and the FHY team as we travel around the world interviewing specialists, scientists, and survivors about their secrets to living longer, preventing and reversing illnesses.

Episode 11: Exploring the Links Between Food & Depression – we’ll reveal the enormous impact obesity has on mental health. Find out the role food plays in combating symptoms of depression and improving your emotional state.
