Swishing...

I've been happy with the progress of my cancer sore shrinking up until now, but I had high hopes of seeing it shrink even more by now.

It's been about 90 days and it is still getting better, slowly, so I can't really complain. It's much less red and pink since I started (I will upload a new photo as soon as possible), but that doesn't mean I don't want to do everything possible to help this cancer go away!

I believe I mentioned before that my routine would probably change with additions as my husband and I are always learning more.

With that being said, we've decided to add something else to my regime. So on top of what I mentioned doing in this post here, in this post, and in this post I have started swishing something as often as possible. I shoot for doing so every hour, if possible, and I swish for 10-20 minutes each time.

I rotate between swishing a high grade hemp oil, baking soda & water, Iodine, Essential oils, Peroxide and Apple Cider Vinegar. I've also started using a lower grade hemp oil for my salad.

In just the last week or so of this subtle addition of swishing and eating low amounts of hemp oil, I've noticed the skin start to get softer under my tongue (like a sore does when you've worn a band-aide for a while). The result of the softer flesh is that the white parts of the sore are slowly falling off in the tiniest, little pieces. 

Additionally, my pain is officially at a 0 out of 10! 

I am choosing to believe that all of these signs are good ones. I hope to report back with even more positive progress very soon. 

Rejected Again

After I was refused for dental services by the last "homeopathic" dentist (read about that here) I felt a little uneasy about going in to see another dentist for fear the same thing would happen again. 

My husband found this other dentist online that claimed to be holistic and they were only a little bit further away than the last one. We scheduled the appointment, and yesterday, we went in.  

At first, I thought this dentist might be different, because they even went as far as to set a "welcome" sign out with my name on it when I walked through the door. The front desk staff seemed very friendly. 

Then, it was like déjà vu all over again when I sat down in the dental chair and was asked to tell my cancer story. As soon as the dental assistant heard that I refused surgery, chemo and radiation therapy she scribbled some notes down on her chart and her tone shifted from friendly to a stance of "get away from me, you freak". 

She brought the doctor in to talk to me. He said he just wanted to look at my mouth. He wasn't even interested in seeing the cancer spot and acted repulsed by it. He told me to just move it out of the way. Then, he just poked around for a few seconds, raised up the chair and admitted my amalgam fillings had started to break down. 

After hearing my story, again, he started to lecture me about how he is an "in between" holistic and ordinary dentist. He kept asking if I would consider getting a second opinion on treating my cancer the conventional way. I flat out told him no! I had already made up my mind that surgery, chemo and radiation were out of the question. 

That's when it happened. I was rejected again. He stated that all he can do for me is recommend that I think about seeing another doctor for a second opinion on how to go about treating my cancer (what he meant was all he can do is tell me to stop healing myself naturally).

My husband then spoke up and said we would consider it if the doctor would consider watching the 10+ hour documentary The Truth About Cancer. It was comical. The doctor shriveled up his nose, put on his angry face and stated that he would never do that.   

His face had this glare on it that said "you are worthless, you do not deserve my attention, you are insignificant. Get out!"

With that, I leapt off of the chair and walked out. 

With each ignorant person I meet; with each person who doesn't believe that natural healing works, I get more determined. I will never stop what I am doing. 

PS: It's only been 70 days at this point and I am seeing results. The sore is shrinking every week, a little at a time! 

Being Vegan

I keep getting a lot of questions about my new found Veganism lifestyle. The number one question I get is:

"Where are you getting your protein from?"

If you research the top plant based protein sources, you'll learn a lot. If you live in America, however; I can't agree with eating Soy based anything. Click here to read up on this subject and find out why most Soy isn't great.

Another thing to be cautious about is anything that says "natural flavors" on it. I just learned this recently. Basically, those labels are a big fat lie and really mean that you're probably eating Beaver butt glands. Look it up for yourself if you don't believe me. 

Anyway.... back to the subject at hand here, you should know plants have plenty of protein!! 

I can hardly believe how many people DO NOT know that plant based foods are full of protein. Quinoa has become my favorite, go-to food and it's packed with protein. Lentils, beans, legumes, nuts, sprouts, leafy greens (like kale and spinach) and even avocados are all things I've been incorporating into my diet to get enough protein. 

Nutritional yeast is also my new favorite seasoning (it has B12 in it). This seasoning has pretty much replaced every cheese source I ever had in a meal.

Rest assured, I'm doing just fine and I love being Vegan! 

The Triple Threat

I'm sure that by now you've already heard of the benefits to oil pulling and of course, this was something I had tried in the past, but like everything else I did it wrong and then gave up when it didn't work properly. My mistake was that I tried it with REFINED coconut oil and that means it's processed. Live and learn. 

Now that I'm more serious about taking care of my overall health, I started doing this again. This time, I know better and I only use UNREFINED coconut oil. I have to say I feel as if it really does get my teeth whiter and my mouth feels more fresh after I swish the unrefined coconut oil in my mouth. As for my cancer sore, I feel that it becomes more "flat" or less inflamed after using the coconut oil. Then, I move on to using Peroxide.

The Peroxide works to really get at the spots between my teeth, around my gums and gets under the tongue, right at the cancer spot. I feel as though it oxygenates the whole area, really opening it up so that when I go to put the pure Iodine on the open sore, it can be absorbed into the tongue a lot better. 

Iodine is super cleansing and it's been said to help kill off cancer so, as with everything else, I figure it's worth a shot. It certainly isn't going to harm me to try it, because I know I am Iodine deficient, as most people are these days.

Just in the last week of me using these three products on my cancer sore, I have noticed a "calming" feeling in my mouth. The sore feels as if it's really trying to heal up. It's hard to really put the feeling into words, but all I know is that it feels different, in a good way. 

The bottom line is that I'm going to keep giving this cancer the triple threat and I hope that this routine along with everything else I am doing to detox will allow me to wake up one day in the very near future as a cancer free lady!  

How to Get Rid of Parasites With Dr. Ed Group

Dr. Edward Group of Global Healing Center joins Wendy Myers on a podcast. He spoke about parasites and how we can get rid of them! I read his book, but he shares even more information here that is mind-boggling. 
I'm excited, nervous, terrified and disgusted all at the same time, because I just KNOW that I have parasites. How do I know?
I feel it. My stomach gets all hard, I get bloated even without having eaten anything and sometimes I feel drained for "no reason". I know my body and these feelings I have are just not normal. 
I honestly feel as though the cancer and anemia issues I have been having is, in part, directly related to parasites in my body. In just one week, I will begin my 40 day cleanse. 
Watch the video for yourself and see why you should think about going through a parasite cleanse, as well.  

Homeopathic? I think not.

I went to a "homeopathic" dentist, today,  in hopes of having my amalgam fillings removed and replaced with something more natural. Instead, I met a clueless dentist. 

In the area right next to me (rooms were not private, they were more like stations with partial walls on each side), my husband overheard another patient asking if something she was about to use had fluoride in it. Clearly, the patient didn't want the dentist to use any fluoride treatments. Why would she? That's the whole reason for going to a holistic dentist... to get natural treatments. Unfortunately, it seemed the dentist didn't even have a clue about what she was using.

When the dentist made her way to my "station" she asked the reason for my visit. When she heard the words cancer and removal of amalgam fillings, she froze for a second. She didn't even bother looking at the pictures of the fillings the dental assistant took. She didn't even ask to look in my mouth! 

She asked me when my surgery was for the cancer. Not that it should have mattered, in my opinion, but I told her that I was taking a completely natural approach to battling this cancer. 

The dentist just couldn't fathom for a second why someone with cancer would ever reject surgery. She acted like she had no clue why someone in my situation would want the amalgam fillings removed. She even went so far as to verbally say that because I have cancer she didn't feel comfortable treating me, because she was worried that legally she'd get into trouble if something should happen! 

She tried to backtrack a little and stated that it was part of her job to remove silver fillings and provide "good dentistry", but only for those individuals whom are "healthy" and I was "not healthy". 

How frustrating! If this dentist doesn't agree with the holistic approach then she shouldn't be calling herself a homeopathic dentist. 

Clearly, she doesn't believe in what she is doing and still has the mindset of most doctors whom are taught to be the sheep of their industries and do conventional treatments.

Homeopathic? I think not. It would seem that she only calls herself homeopathic for, seemingly, nothing more than to attract those patients trying to be healthier so that she can make more money. 

Detox Steps & Progress

Today, I started a detox regime. It's a 4 month long process, but I think it's what needs to happen, because my diet alone would be even slower. I know I need to get the toxins in my body OUT!

Based on the works of Dr. Edward F. Group III, my next 4 months will consist of:

1.) Colon cleanse

2.) Liver & Gallbladder cleanse

3.) Parasite cleanse

4.) Chemical & Toxic Metal cleanse 

5.) Green Living cleanse (home & work- this one is already in process rather than waiting for last).

We live in a very toxic world and I don't want to ever think back on this cancer fight and wonder if I did everything I could do. I will do what I have to do, but I will do it the natural way!

I'm so thankful for my husband, because he is always cheering me on and he's doing the Vegan diet 99% of the time.

With all of this being said; I have to say that I enjoy my Vegan diet. Since cutting out meat, I feel better than I ever have. My sore spot is already shrinking. 

My husband started taking daily photos at first, but then we cut it down. Usually, we snap a weekly photo. Progress is slow, but there is obvious progress! When I get all the pictures in order, I will post some for proof that this at-home treatment is working.
