Lynne123 Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 I hardly know where to begin with this. First of all, I would like to make it clear that Judy is, in no way, in the clear. I know that things could change at any moment but I'll share some of the highlights of the past 2 yrs. I started her on a mushroom compound called M/R/S from Pure Encapsulations. It is the Maitake, Reishi and Shiitake mushroom. Throughout her entire Camptosar chemo treatments, her counts never dropped. Her oncologist referred to her as a miracle. He said "I hit you with everything I had and you took it like no other patient ever has." She also is taking a product called LiverProtec from Montiff. Grapeseed extract to help with neuropathy, etc; Vit C; GB-3 & Endopan(can only be bought through nutritionist) for detoxification; 5 vita zyme 3 times/day (digestive enzymes); calcium/magnesium; 2000 mg vit D; Ave(very expensive but is suppose to help stop metastasis-info on Internet); beta glucan; taurine (3000mg/day). For the brain lesions we used alpha lipoic acid because it is an antioxidant that crosses the blood/brain barrier. I began taking her to a nutritionist about 6 months ago for added protection. I would highly recommend that to anyone. Chemo & radiation has no doubt helped to save her life, but she needed more. You can't destroy healthy cells & then expect a cancer patient to just miraculously have a healthy immune system. We create approx. 30-40 millions cancer cells daily but a healthy immune system destroys them. Her latest chemo was carboplatin and etoposide & towards the end, she did begin to experience problems with her counts but nothing too severe. Again, I want to stess that this, so far, has been helping us. I highly recommend contacting a nutritionist who specializes in cancer. Dr. Ralph Moss has written a brilliant article on cancer treatments and vitamins in which he cites amazing studies which prove that most vitamins/antioxidants do not interfere. In closing, I want to tell you the most important therapy of all - Judy, along with so many others, prays constantly and concentrates on the scriptures about healing. She has a very strong faith in God and is constantly reminding her devastated family members that "in the end, it is up to God and I rest in that."

Kasey Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 How very fortunate Judy is to have you as such an advocate. Wish you could just come on over to the other side of town and do the same for me . Praying for continued success. Kasey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
