What do you know so far?? What is YOUR current plan? Chemo/Radiation?

What are you planning to change about diet? ANy supplements taken currently? I think I recall you saying you ordered the DCA??

IF so, while you wait, read ALL from front page of the DCA site; Side Effects/Dosage/other peoples stories (I recall on where someone had great success with DCA with the same condition!!)

All is not lost, sufficed you do ALL that you can too for your mother, as I am sure you would do....

Feel free to roam DCA site and ask people questions. THere is a wealth of information in here already.

Hope we can help you in some way

Above is link for DCA NSCLC person WHO did have success with DCA

I also need to mention that it is metastatic and it has spread to her skull (no the brain) and lymph node. The doctor said the metastasis is level IV, but the lung cancer is level III.

I've read Tom McGhee's story and it is encouraging. I just hope the DCA would come a bit sooner. I ordered it on Thursday and it might take a week or two to get to Finland.

I've been reading some alternative medicine sites and watched some videos and it seems there's a chance that vitamin-B17 (apricot seeds) and relatively large doses of vitamin-D might offer some help.

Take care!

YEs, I know I know the stupid #'s they stamp on our heads as they send us down that LINE.

I have: Advanced/Invasive Squamous cervical cancer Stage 3B/IV no mets (I think???) BUT, it is in my lymph nodes. So I do hear what you are saying. SO now you have some #s..... put them away and get busy....

#1) Look/change diet (NO: Dairy, meat, sugars, NO SMOKED anything!!Fish OR meats)(this in intself will cause a body withdrawl, a kind of cleansing BUT GOOD, even though she may not feel well

Rest, lots of good water, LOADS OF dark grape juice (Pure, organic if you can)
Eat mostly raw uncooked fruits and veg.again organic if you can.

I use a juicer: 2 carrots, one apple, handful of parsley/spinach, half a beet, piece of ginger, couple of stalks of celery. Have this as much as you can stand in a day. (idea is to flood the body with oxygen and enzymes, doing the fruit and veg this way, the body doesn't have to work so hard to make itself better)

1 tablespoon of organic flax seed oil MIXED IN WELL to 2 tablespoons of cotagecheese OR Quark 2/3 times per day. = Budwig protocol, plus it's a nice treat after not having all the other things + protine.

#2) Find everything to boost Immune system
yes, Vit D-3 (natural one) good I take 12000 iu's per day
Vitamin C (I do this through an IV @ 50grams 2 x's per week + 10g per day in my juice this is a buffered Vit C) THe body will respond to too much Vit C with diarehha ONLY. Fresh fruit and veg plates, salad, legumes ect ect. Being Finish you probably have a great access to fish BUT NO PICKLED HERRINGS! OR SMOKED> oo now my mouth watering.... THe little fish are great: smelts, mackeral,(steam them and pour a little flax oil on them, same as salade I use flax and lemon juice.

#3) EVEN while waiting for the DCA, start to implement these other things.

After you get the DCA and she starts to take it, it'll make her feel sick as she starts to use it. It works well, so really knocks it out of you. Well, think there is NO magic pill after you take it Tada??? You will feel ill until it gets out of your body.

I guess the idea, is flush out the old, start on the new and try out the DCA. DON'T just hear their #'s///

Just checkin in.... How is your mother doin>>>???

Elizabeth

Lets fight together, help each other. I truely believe that we have to be our own health advocat.

Thanks for asking. How are you?

My mum's at the hospital, because she got some fluid to her lungs after the started with chemo. It's quite tough for her and she's received 2 doses now.

Hopefully she'll return home soon. That's when I hope I can start making good, healthy food for her. I don't really trust the hospital food, to be honest.

Please, tell how you're doing and what have you done so far.

Take care

Pekka

I am sorry to hear this about your mother!!
Yes, she will be better @ home with you. CHemo is so very hard on the body...

Me, I am ok... I just posted in Support Forum what I will be doing next.

You make a good plan for your mother and keep us up to date.
