Guest guest Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 Depends on what you mean by living well. I was diagnosed with breast cancer around thanksgiving. I am going the natural route. After doing juicing and a few other things my blood test came back on the very low side of normal for cancer counts.

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 Hi Cathy ! I'm 50 and was diagnosed in October 2006. I have had a mastectomy, total lymph node removal to one side, and chemotherapy. I am now taking something to block oestrogen. My cancer had spread before diagnosis and I still have tumours which I am hoping to eradicate. I have made many lifestyle changes over the last year, so although I haven't rejected conventional therapies I am seeking to heal myself through means other than pharmaceuticals alone. Unfortunately conventional therapies will only hold things at bay for a while, not cure.The word cure is NEVER used! My strategies so far are as follows : DIET I have eliminated all dairy (thus reducing fat as well as whatever is injected or fed to the cattle, not to mention the puss milk products are reputed to contain.) I have drastically reduced salt. ( I eat sea vegetables and now love chard or celery for the salty hit) I have greatly reduced oils in my diet. I do get oil from vegetables, seeds and nuts , but rarely add oil otherwise. I have largely reduced sugar, but do eat some fruit- apples and pears which I believe are very alkaline, and pineapple because it contains the enzyme brommelaine. Life has to be enjoyed. Perhaps I'll give them up later, but I'm not ready yet. I have cut out processed foods, largely because they contain all of the above. I have cut out meat, and have now started reducing fish. I take supplements and lots ! of vitamin C No caffeine.. Lots of raw food. fermented sauerkraut for the enzymes. fresh juices and green drinks. RELLAXATION, MEDITATION, VISUALISATION. Did you know deep breathing makes your body more aalkaline? I do all these to support my immune system which needs all the support it can get now that I've learnt what chemotherapy does to it ! SUPPORT GROUP MEMBER AND NOW LOOKING TO THE INTERNET FOR INFORMATION AND A SENSE OF COMMUNITY- (you know- moral support and encouragement. Not everyone is able or wants to change their ways. It can be lonely . My breast cancer nurse still offers coffee and biscuits at support group meetings. And I can tell amazing stories of what they still do and think. One pushes you to spoil yourself with cream cakes. My research to date suggests that this is a very unwise route! EXCERSIZE AND FRESH AIR AND SUNSHINE ( in theory anyway , though we did have some sun last week and as we were on holiday we got a walk in every day in the Sun !!! I'm also doing a gardening class so that I can start my own vegetable plot next month - fresh air and sunshine and fresh 'living' food ! ( I have cabbage, kale. lettuce and peas in pots now so I do have a very few fresh, fresh leaves at present. ) LAUGHTER !! I have movies that I watch and I'm reading funny books, and just this last week I've found out about blogs and have found some funny sites. Anything amusing and lighthearted attracts me. I used to like thrillers and murder mysteries, but I can't take them anymore. I believe they suppress the immune system and so I avoid them and go into a different room when they're on t.v. There's probably more I do, but I can't remember at present (chemo- brain or lack of oestrogen, the cause iis irrelevant.) I've incorporated these changes over time so sometimes I forget what changes I've made. I eliminated dairy in September 06 before diagnosis, having reduced it prior to that - though knowing what I know now I was only playing at it. The other changes followed in April 07 after chemotherapy when I had the energy and courage to do a bit of research though my diet was already changed by chemo- I lost my appetite and- more relevant- didn't have the energy to make myself anything to eat and relied on my husband to prepare very simple meals- baked potato and salad! You sound to have saved yourself the nightmare of chemotherapy. I don't regret the surgery and chemotherapy which left me very poorly; they reduced the tumour load and I see it as like a wolf biting off its paw to escape a trap. I am going to do everything in my power to escape this particular trap !! I wish you lots of luck in overcoming this challenge and would be very interested to hear what you are doing, what you've learnt and how you get on. My own journey is evolving all the time . I admire your courage , foresiight and strength in foregoing conventional treatment . I know only too well how difficult it is to fight against the current and the experience and accepted wisdom of the medical professiion .

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 I read Hulda Clarke's book called The Cure for all Cancers and she really advocates doing the parasite cleanse as described in the post I sent awhile back- I can repost it it you're interested. I am glad to hear you are doing better and wish the best to both of you! Dianne PS I also read something about ground flax seed halting tumours- if you do this be sure to grind your own organic seeds and store it inthe freezer-grind only enough for 1 week at a time. Flax seed helps escort excess estrogen out of the body. - cheryl Thursday, February 21, 2008 9:34 PM Re: Living with Breast Cancer Depends on what you mean by living well.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 Go to the Flaxoil2 website I believe it is http://health.FlaxSeedOil2 Go to the " Files " section to the left of the page. In there you will find stories of people that have used flaxoil/cottage cheese. One person's story is one by Nan Parson. She beat breast cancer and her husband Bill beat pancreatic cancer. I know Nan's cousin personally and she emailed me Nan's progress of fighting and winning the breast cancer. Amazing! She won mainly by juicing, supplements, vitamins, fo/cc. She had no surgery, chemo or radiation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
