Thanks to you and everyone else for their kind and supporting words.

Four weeks post Bone Marroww Transplant and finally some good news!

My son had a CT scan last Thursday and over the weekend the results came back showing no sign of the disease, just a 1mm speck in his chest that could just be a fungal infection - at least the doctors aren't worried about it.

This is great news, although I must admit I don't want to get too excited as there is still a long, long haul ahead to full recovery and chance of many pitfalls.

I'm now questioning whether to put him back on DCA at all for the following reasons:

Browsing the net and the science blogs, I've found several that question the differences between acetic acid and NaDCA, primarily that the only difference between acetic acid and DCA chemically seems to be the subsitution of some hydrogen atoms by some chlorine atoms. So, why should DCA be so special? (I'm not a chemist, but I do know that very minor differences in structure between similar molecules can result in major differences in chemical properties).

Now, you have been reporting success using 'lemon water', DCA and Quercitine, so could lemon juice be just as good as DCA in fighting cancer?

Of couse, it sounds ridiculous saying lemon juice can directly fight cancer, because if lemon juice was an effective cancer fighter, it would have been identified years ago?

So. I may be putting my son onto lemon water instead.
