Bear with me guys. I’m new to this. It can be done. I was diagnosed
with Stage 4 Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma and a little over 4 years ago I was
told to have the last 3 cycles (I’d already had 3 out of 6) of RCHOP
chemotherapy and Rumaxitab but as it wasn’t having much impact
they’d be treating me as a palliative patient - keeping me
comfortable for the short time they thought I had left. Fortunately
for me, I was a positive sort of person. Having 4 young children I was
determined that I couldn’t die. I had a fantastic support network of
family and freinds. And I’d chanced upon a website offering natural
strategies to kill cancer, while I was researching NHL which I must
say at that point there wasn’t anything too positive out there.
I’d read through the pages of information and supporting
documentation for each strategy (qpproximately 100 pages in total) and
was keeping it up my sleeve.. just in case. I muttered under my breath
at that point something along the lines.. I’ll show you b*tch.. The
doctor (a med student) had been quite blase about the whole thing. In
hindsight I don’t think that I would have understood just how sick I
was without the information she’d just delivered. Without it I may
not have made the decision to go with the supplements and strategies
without which, I dare say I would not be here now. I started by
boosting my immune system. I drank Aloe Vera Juice. It is readily
available in the health food aisle in the local supermarket for around
$12 a litre. I drank about 125 ml twice a day which can be mixed with
other juices. I started taking a multivitamin, 1500mg Vitamin C twice
a day. I took 150mg Co-enzyme Q10 daily, flaxseed oil and milk thistle
to help my liver. I ate a healthy diet, lots of fresh fruit and
vegetables. Got a good night’s sleep in a quiet dark room (atleast 8
hours), started filtering my drinking water. I would sit out in the
sunshine, watch the sunset, potter around outside.. appreciate the
beauty of nature, enjoy the company of family and freinds. I did some
deep breathing several times a day, visualised my cancer shrinking and
disintegrating, took daily walks, laughed alot and as strange as it
sounds I would channel all of the positive energy from those around me
- whenever anyone asked how I was.. I would feel almost invigorated! I
tried to not let myself wallow and let my cancer rule me. Getting
angry is negative and not the best place to be in a situation like
this. I finished my last 3 cycles of chemo and was sent for my
restaging PET Scan. My Oncologist was amazed. I had been full of
cancer, throughout my body, and in my bone marrow. It had almost
completely resolved. His words were “It doesn’t happen very often
- to do what I had done.. whatever you’re doing, just keep doing
it” My followup CT showed the cancer was gone! It can be done!
There’s alot you can do to help yourself. I call what I do
“complimentary” - you use it in conjunction with what your
specialist says. I believe in being proactive. You do everything you
can to make yourself stronger and if you’ve got to go down you’re
going to go down fighting. I have a facebook page - complimentary
strategies to beat cancer if you want, have a look. More stuff to
follow
