A Compassionate Man, Michael Ortiz Hill
Posted by Tommy Garrett on Sep 18, 2011 - 11:26:06 PM

BEVERLY HILLS—Why is it that the things and people that are best for you are secret? I’m happy to reveal one of the most incredible authors, who is also a registered nurse and has touched the lives of many people, helping to heal families, people suffering from the painful debilitating disease of multiple sclerosis and other such ailments. The shocking revelation is that Michael Ortiz Hill also healed himself of the disease, and he stands ready to make a metaphysical appearance around the world and help others achieve their own greatness, by first teaching them to love themselves enough to release the negative energy they embrace in order to make room for the true blessings they soon can have in their lives. “As a man who actually lost feeling in my own legs, I know how (MS) can be such a physical and at times emotional destructive force. However, even diseases we have to deal with can always be used as blessings to place us where we need to be, and where we are then able to help others,” said author Michael Ortiz Hill.

Don’t wait another moment, go to Amazon and purchase “The Craft of Compassion” today. Ortiz Hill is a nurse of almost a quarter of a century, and he also worked for 12 years at the famed UCLA Medical Center in Westwood, assisting patients and trying to comfort them and their families, until he found a mission worthy to grow further in his spiritual realm and also to help heal families who are losing loved ones. “I have seen death, the very moment of death be the catalyst to heal families, Tommy. I cannot use this person’s real name, however, I knew a lady named Ella when I was a hospice nurse, and it’s amazing how peaceful death often is. Ella’s partner was there by her side, I was the only medical professional there, but also Ella’s young son was by her bedside, who she had a very turbulent relationship with throughout his life. He knew it was close to death for her, and yet still wanted to be there at the end. He was feeling very uneasy, very sad over the past they had shared. Just seconds before Ella died, a bedridden Ella bolted from her waist up, and in an emotionally charged moment, hugged her son, goodbye, then seconds later went to rest and was at peace. In that moment, I watched her son’s eyes, and the once troubled relationship healed. With death, there can still be blessings. I’ve seen it over the years working as a hospice nurse,” said Michael Ortiz Hill.

The author has a glaring reference list, and mentioning only a few people’s opinions will give you an idea of his trailblazing abilities to help others, and therefore anyone in need of his services should feel free to contact him. However, my suggestion to everyone, is start with his book. “Pssst! a little secret: The most influential force in our world is not power but compassion, empathy, and love. ‘The Craft of Compassion' shows why. Handle with care: This luminous book can change your life," said Larry Dossey, MD Author of “The Power Of Premonitions.”

“Chock full of beautiful, elegant wisdom... truly a magnificent piece of work. It resonates with heart, depth and the humility of real experience. It is a gift to us all,” said Dr. David Forbes, MD president of the American Holistic Medicine Association.

In addition to being a magnificent author, caring and empowering nurse in the medical field, Ortiz Hill also has a lengthy history as a medicine man with ties to the beautiful nation of Zimbabwe in Africa. Like everything the author/nurse does, his book is not only filled with compassion, but it helps to nurture and teach the reader how to refine the art of compassion, that Hill credits with his own self-healing from a debilitating disease that took away his pride, and other not so positive aspects of his life as well.

“Tommy, I was once a very arrogant guy, who thought I was on top of the world. I was cocky and arrogant, but soon with multiple sclerosis I was in a diaper, falling down on the street needing people to help me up. So for that reason, (MS) was a blessing to me. I used that blessing to heal myself, and eventually my doctor told me, ‘whatever you are doing, you need to keep it up.’ What we do today is depend on a lot of drugs and we fail to be able to accept our blessings and ultimately heal our souls, which in turn will often heal the physical body as well,” lamented Hill.

Think about these important things. “What is compassion in truly hopeless circumstances? How does one bring heart to a heartless situation? These two words, craft and compassion, then, twine into a single idea: the craft of soul-making in the activity of compassion. The gesture toward a suffering being is at the same time a gesture towards one's own awakening. This craft requires the full gamut of what one is. When one vows to learn compassion, one soon realizes one has pledged one's whole life from now until one's certain death. We are forever the apprentice with regard to what we don’ t yet know. Nothing less than the complete transformation of the self is required.” These are the words of a healing heart, and capable hands of author Michael Ortiz Hill.

The Topanga Canyon resident is open for dialogue, questions and inspiring stories from readers and everyone.
