In 1993 while still a full-time nursing student at the University of New Mexico, Whole Woman Founder Christine Kent was diagnosed with a fibroid tumor on her uterus. Told by several local gynecologists that hysterectomy was the appropriate treatment, but having watched the impact of hysterectomy on both mother and sister, she refused.
She called her former gynecologist in San Diego, where she and her husband Lanny Goodman had lived prior to moving to New Mexico. His response was, “Hysterectomy is unnecessary. Laser surgery will take it right off.”
They made the arrangements for the trip and surgery. In the pre-operative meeting, the doctor asked if there were any other issues of which he should be aware. Christine mentioned that she occasionally leaked a little when coughing or sneezing.
“You’re much too young for that!” was his response. “While I’m in there anyway, I’ll just tuck up your bladder, state-of-the-art operation, and that will solve the problem.”
Trusting a distinguished doctor at a major southern California hospital, she agreed.
The fibroid surgery went well. At home a week or so later, Christine got ready for her first walk outside. Noticing something odd, she was horrified to discover her cervix was sticking out an inch and a half.
On the panic-stricken call to the surgeon, his response was, “How could that have happened? Now this is serious and hysterectomy is your only option.”
Christine never spoke to the man again.
Over the next ten years, Christine struggled with her profound uterine prolapse. Yoga, bodywork, Indian dance, and acupuncture were just a few of the experiments she ran to try to stabilize and reverse her condition.
She wrote for her surgical records and found that the surgery state of the art surgery he performed on her bladder was called the Marshall-Marchetti-Kranz method, which was designed in the 1940s for men who had lost their prostate to cancer and in women virtually always resulted in a profound uterine prolapse.
As her discomfort reached a crisis point, it became clear to her that resolving prolapse was her life’s work. Little did she know where that would lead.
Almost four years of virtually full-time research in the medical school library finally revealed the answers. Slowly, she was able to get her own prolapse under control.
Her first book, Saving the Whole Woman transformed the lives of thousands of women worldwide. Video was emerging on the scene and Christine started producing VHS tapes, then DVDs as the technology evolved.
Christine’s first web site at wholewoman.com included a public forum where thousands of women shared their struggles and successes with the Whole Woman work. Interestingly, two or three women reported on the forum that not only had their prolapse dramatically improved, but their hip pain was gone.
This data led her back to the medical school library and fifteen months, a thousand research studies, and her second book, Save Your Hips later, Christine had connected the root cause of prolapse to chronic hip pain. The work has continued to expand to bladder challenges and chronic knee pain, all related to the same root cause.
Her current work is a deep dive into the madness of virology, gene therapy, and “synthetic biology” which is now impacting the lives of billions of people across the planet.
The Whole Woman School of Natural Health is the consummation of her long-held dream, to create a comprehensive, legitimate alternative to conventional drugs and surgery medicine that is aligned with the natural intelligence of the universe and all it’s living creations.
Christine holds bachelor degrees in anthropology and nursing, and is currently at work on her new book, The Covid 19 Global Disaster - What You Need to Know About Spike Protein, Synthetic Biology, and the End of Scientific Materialism, which should be available in the spring of 2024.
