Wonderful week and feeling stronger ! ! !

Recovery from chemo was REALLY tough. Never again. Each day a little chemo leaves my body I feel better. I no longer have fevers and I AM stronger.

Rod, Lara, Jake and Aaron stayed for a week and it was just what I needed. All of us staying at Joe and Debs house. To be able to hold my new grandson ( 6 weeks old) and see how Jake ( 2 years old) has grown really made my heart BIG. Being all together, helped make me stronger, giving me the will to fight-fight-fight for recovery.
It was a big trip for them with all the suitcases and gear, a small baby and an entergetic toddler. I am so grateful they came out.

I have made my mind up on an alternative cancer treatment. I believe I told all of you about The Moss Report I ordered back in October 2006 . It is 500 pages on only Mixed Mullerian Tumors, written by a cancer researcher. Dr Moss has been doing this for 30 years, he covers every angle on what is offered, from tradition chemo, clinical trials and alternative therapies.
I have read all the material, yet was not sure what I should do. I resolved that by booking a phone consultation directly with Dr Moss. I asked him for his top 5 recommendations of treatment. His #1 recommendation was pancreatic enzine therapy.

I had already been interested in this. I researced and read about a doctor in New York who specializes in this. Many people use this therapy when it is their last hope ( thats where I am) and have excellant results. Dr Moss said there were other professional's who do this therapy, and had reccomendations. I have engaged a naturalpathic doctor who is going to guide me through the process. It will take alot of effort and hours of my day...I can do this!
I am in the process of "moving" to Joe and Debs . That will be where I live. They have a lovely bedroom on the back of the house with french doors that open to a fountain, very peaceful.

Some of the treatments for this is doing a particular type of infra red sauna for 20 min 3 times a day ( Rod and Joe built the sauna this last weekend). Included is organic coffee enemas ( pulls the toxins from my liver and kidneys), those will be at least 3 times a day(takes at least 30 mins). Also taking up to 100 pills a day ( enzines plus suppliments), eating wild salmon, organic eggs, vegtables, nuts and seeds etc.
Each person has there own protocal designed from blood test results.

It all starts with customized blood tests. There are 4. Kaiser will not do these. I am sent kits for each test and I go to a local lab. They will draw my blood and overnite my blood to these various test sites. One test is to measure 7 different cancer tumor markers ( not just the ca 125). This test site is the only one in the world that performs this. Lastly will be a hair test. The doctor says I need to get all the chemo out of my body and also get ride of all the metal toxins and any other bad stuff. I need to get my body healthy so the enzines can work.

I am back at my condo to sort thru "stuff". Think about what is below your bathroom sink...none of that stuff can go. There is room only for essentials. This will take a bit of work.

Also to report is that Carl/ Barry and I have parted ways. I dont want to give you all the details. I feel sad, yet I am OK. I need only P E A C E in my life. I need every bit of my energy toward my healing process.
