Against-All-Odds: True Stories of Spiritual Healing

In My Life with God, Dr. John Gerard Gallucci presents a compilation of against-all-odds spiritually and metaphysically based true stories that demonstrate how God and a healing spirit move and work through our lives. Through his work as a pediatric surgeon, Gallucci shares the essence of what it means to live and work in a spiritual-metaphysical world of healing while rendering gold standard surgical care to premature infants, babies and children.

In a world filled with anxiety, pain and heartache, My Life with God illustrates what can be accomplished by allowing God’s river of love and light to flow regardless of how difficult some challenges may seem or how improbable finding a silver lining on the darkest cloud may appear. Throughout its pages, Gallucci shows how seeing others with the eyes of the heart and offering them love and compassion renders true healing.

John Gerard Gallucci, M.D., is a board-certified, award-winning pediatric and neonatal general and thoracic surgeon who has held the designation of “Top Doctor” in his home state of New Jersey for many years. He is also a reiki master, energy healer and prayer warrior.

Tick Talk

Spring officially sprung on March 21. We have turned our clocks ahead. We are looking forward to warm winds, sunny skies and the smell of fresh cut grass. The daffodils and tulips have recently bloomed and we are just starting with the yard work that comes with the warmer weather.  Sadly, another season has started ramping up.  Tick season.

•             The best form of protection is prevention. Educating oneself about tick activity and how our behaviors overlap with tick habitats is the first step.

•             According to the NJ DOH, in 2022 Hunterdon County led the state with a Lyme disease incidence rate of 426 cases per 100,000 people. The fact is ticks spend approximately 90% of their lives not on a host but aggressively searching for one, molting to their next stage or over-wintering. This is why a tick remediation program should be implemented on school grounds where NJ DOH deems high risk for tick exposure and subsequent attachment to human hosts.

•             Governor Murphy has signed a bill that mandates tick education in NJ public schools. See this for the details.  Tick education must now be incorporated into K-12 school curriculum. See link:

•             May is a great month to remind the public that tick activity is in full swing. In New Jersey, there are many tickborne diseases that affect residents, including Anaplasmosis, Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis, Lyme disease, Powassan, and Spotted Fever Group Rickettsiosis.

•             For years, the focus has mainly been about protecting ourselves from Lyme disease. But other tick-borne diseases are on the rise in Central Jersey. An increase of incidence of Babesia and Anaplasma are sidelining people too. These two pathogens are scary because they effect our blood cells. Babesia affects the red blood cells and Anaplasma effects the white blood cells.

•             Ticks can be infected with more than one pathogen. When you contract Lyme it is possible to contract more than just that one disease. This is called a co-infection. It is super important to pay attention to your symptoms. See link.
