On February 10th 2002 I brought my husband to the emergency room with a splitting headache and projectile vomiting. We thought it was a bad migraine but later found out that it was a brain tumor. On February 12th he had surgery and the surgeon told us and the lab work later confirmed that he had a Glioblastoma Multiforme IV. It is the most deadly and fast moving brain tumor you can have. The surgeon removed all of the tumor he could see. The doctor told our family that Tom had about 26 weeks to live if he didn?t take any radiation and if he did take radiation it might give him a year. Tom was in the hospital for eight days. We were not sure what to do so we took the doctor?s referral and went to radiation about a week after he got out of the hospital. Tom only took five days of radiation and it made him feel terrible, and sapped all of his energy.
We are Christians and knew that we needed to seek the Lord?s guidance in this crisis. So we went to our Church and had Tom anointed with oil and hands laid on in prayer by the elders of the Church (James 5:14). After that some friends came forward and told us of some alternative ways people were fighting and winning the battle against cancer. Since the doctors did not hold out any hope we decided to throw our lot in with the holistic treatments and did not take anymore radiation. We started the holistic regimen in March.
Tom?s three month MRI looked good, his brain was clean and the hole where they removed the tumor was empty except for a tiny line around a portion of the inside of the hole. The doctor said that it could be scar tissue, a benign bit of tumor or a regrowth of the Glioblastoma.
At the six month MRI his brain was completely clean. There was no cancer at all. The doctor said that it was a miracle. In 14 years of practice he had not seen anything like it.
This is what we did:
Take ¼ cup Low Fat Cottage Cheese and mix it with 1 tablespoon Flaxseed oil and eat it twice a day.
Take Three 750 mg Shark Cartilage capsules three times a day
Take a Borage Oil and CoQ10 supplement
Drink plenty of water
Try to get light exercise, walking is best
Get some sunlight
For the first three months I also rubbed Frankincense on his head because it is supposed to have anti-tumor properties.
I searched on the Internet to see if there were other people having success with the flaxseed oil and cottage cheese. If you go to www.yahoo.com and go to groups there is a group called FLAXSEEDOIL2 and there is some good exchange of information there.
After doing more research and talking to more people we added some things to our regimen after the first three months He started using an extract of a Brazilian fruit plant called Graviola (3 drops twice a day). We also added the AIM Garden Trio twice a day to build up Tom?s health. Our whole family tries to take at least one AIM Garden Trio a day now.
Tom did not go vegetarian, but we did cut back on meat and sugar. We follow the biblical eating laws and do not eat any pork or unclean fish. It makes it harder for your body to fight cancer if you put unclean and artificial things into it. We think artificial sweetener caused Tom?s cancer. He used to drink at least 2 liters a day of diet soda. Go to www.dorway.com for more info.
