Update: Still Alive and Kickin

Just wanted to post an update here that I am still around and have had no cancer since I originally found the lump in late 2005. I have some other minor health issues I’m still dealing with – such as weight gain and some problems with recurring staph infections. Overall though I’m pretty happy with my health and can’t complain. I just wanted to post an update for anyone who finds this blog and wants to know whether or not I am still around.

Both my parents have died since I first started this blog – my mother of lung cancer. We thought we would send her to the Mississippi clinic that Abraham Cherrix went to – well it turned out that this was a bad decision and my sister and I believe that the clinic ended my Mom’s life in the end. I can’t remember the name – but I am sure I mentioned it in the blog. My Dad was 85 and lasted three years after my Mom’s death, living on his own. We were actually surprised he lasted that long – he was really never happy again after he lost her. It was hard to watch him barely living…

Even my beloved dog Cody died from cancer in 2009 – hemangiosarcoma. I wasn’t able to save him which pains me… It’s not as easy to save a dog from cancer. I have learned a lot since then – there are many things that can be used to fight cancer naturally – the problem is deciding which one to use because you don’t want to use too many at once.

There are some new developments in cancer treatment – namely targeted chemo. Will have to wait and see if it really helps. Seems to me that they are still missing the mark by trying to “kill” a tumor instead of “switch off” the cancer cells or deprive it of something it needs and only the cancer cells need. That seems like the best targeted treatment to me.

In the mean time, I am just trying to figure out my menopausal weight gain issue and learning methods to deal with staph infections. My most recent success in the latter problem is using bentonite clay on the staph (as well as aloe and coconut oil). The clay seems to draw out the toxins from under the skin which is very desirable. If left under the skin it seems to just stay in your system and pop up elsewhere. I even feel that my left hip was close to becoming “septic” – I had pain deep in my hip that did not seem to be related to any muscle. I treated my hip with far infrared heat from FIR lamp and used a Biomat for several hours total and it seemed to have worked. However, the staph then just came out at another spot – under my left arm of all places. So now I am drawing it out with the clay. If it works I’ll post an update. So far it does seem to work though!

If you are dealing with a cancer diagnosis – I hope this blog gives you the hope that you so desperately need. I truly believe that a cancer diagnosis does not have to be a death sentence. Once you have decided that it is not, you are that much closer to beating it.
