Sunday, May 8th, 7:30am Sunday, May 8th, 7:30 am I was reading someone else's blog in which she fasted 30 days with water. I was greatly encouraged, because she had a few setbacks, but still continued on. That's why I'm here; I need encouragement. This is the exact right thing for me to do, but it is going to be very difficult. Not only do I know from past experience, but I add to it because of the surgery coming up, and the other special challenges i know I am going to have to face. Although my family is generally supportive, they might get frightened, especially as time goes on. They supported me through the Gerson diet, but juice/water fasting is even more radical. My husband is so supportive that he bought me a very expensive juicer. But he is also beginning to mention chemotherapy, where when I was first diagnosed, he was very agreeable to my not submitting to it. He's getting frightened. I understand that, and after all, he does have some say, since we are one flesh in God's eyes. If he were to insist, I would do it. He knows that this surgery could uncover more metastasis, and that is what makes the difference of his confidence. I would agree to chemo/radiation, but only AFTER my fasting experiment has run its course and has proved a failure. I hear that cancer will often respond to fasting, but NOT if it is within the lymph system. Mine IS within the lymph system. If this is true,(that CA in the lymph system does not respond to fasting), the fasting will still be very healthful for me, and I can start chemotherapy in the late summer or early fall. I've read two contradicting reports about fasting: 1) fasting weakens the immune system, and 2) fasting strengthens the immune system. Both are probably true, don't your think? It weakens it while your body is autolysing and cleansing itself from built-up toxins, and then, when the body is cleaner, the immune system is strengthened? Some will say that I am playing roulette with my life. My life is hid with Christ in God. Whether I submit to chemotherapy, or fast, God is the LIFE within. As long as I do not sin in rebellion (like deliberately running in front of a truck to commit suicide), my life will be exactly as it was meant to be by God. As long as I seek Him with my whole heart, no TACTIC I perform will make a difference. There is no right or wrong choice if I am seeking Him with my whole being. THAT is the confidence with which I am able to do this. The key: It's a matter of the heart, not the device. Today is Mothers' Day, but I avoided going out to eat, although it was difficult to persuade my husband. I think he's planning a 'surprise' late Mother's Day celebration on Tuesday night. If he is, I'll just pick a restaurant where there are good salads, and I'll have one of those. Not organic, probably, but the best I can do without hurting my family's feelings. Not a problem. I'll make my own dressing and take it with me and use it without making much fuss about it. I bet nobody will even notice! They don't want me to start any type of eating preparation 'till AFTER the surgery. But eating all raw, fresh, and organic fruits and veggies, no salt will HELP me, not weaken me for the surgery.
