Sorry I have been so absent guys, I have been busy running around and getting things in order for my chemo, and got my new wig too, but I prefer hats...the wig is too hot and tight around my head....but will be good for going out somewhere...but for everyday, I will be going au naturalle or wearing a hat or scarf. I have been making soups and muffins and other dishes so I won't have so much to do after my chemo...but I am hoping that this one will be better.

And I went to my oncology dr today and she said the tumors are shrinking, so the chemo is doing it's job...I will have a ct scan after this next one has a chance to make a difference.

I am doing a very strict candida diet and that has really helped my recovery. And so has the immune stimulator and the astralagus recommended by Russ...the drs couldn't believe the difference from the last time they saw me in the hospital, just one month ago...I was almost dead. The immune stimulator made me feel better right away, it truly is amazing stuff!! And mercury knocks the hell out of our immune systems as does chemotherapy...

Will keep you posted, thanks for all the prayers, I am sure they made a difference too. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

HI Sandi, I am so glad to hear of the tumors shrinking and let's hope and pray for a proper and permanent cure!! The efforts you are making a pretty darned heroic and are an inspiration to us all. Should anybody else have to face something like this, your posts will be a godsend.

God bless and I pray for a complete recovery for you and may all your efforts pay off.

luv Rebecca. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Thanks for all the kind wishes guys, your support means so much to me...the cancer marker blood tests so that the levels have gone from 1200 to 1000, and I am hoping to reduce them even more after I start eating the apricot kernels that have been banned by both the fda and it's cdn counterpart.

I had my 2nd chemo tonight and even though I am tired...I am feeling better than I have in over 20 years. Hope it continues, the 3rd and 4th days were the worst last month.

I was so near death when i was hospitalized, and I didn't even realize it until I started to get better. It is funny when you are that sick, you are kind of in shock and you don't even care if you die...maybe cause you feel so crummy.

Today the head oncology nurse for women's gynelogical cancers came to see me today about doing a study with an group from UBC that are working on getting funding to help incorporate alternate cancer cures with traditional methods.....that is what we need more of.....integration of the 2.

HOW COOL IS THAT!!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> I thought I was going to get a lecture on taking the alternate supps, (against the advice of the cancer clinic pharmacist).....what a shocker that was!!!!

Just wanted to share that with you, I told her that was going to be my life's mission after I beat the cancer....she was happy to hear that. You don't know how good it makes me feel to think that this is happening...integrated clinics are quite common in the US....but here is it the same old, same old...we need more funding.

ttyl,
Sandra
