OT: Gerson Therapy anyone? Lindsey?

Hi Jenni! I have a friend who had breast cancer and was able to control a tumor w/ juicing and eating! You can read more testimonies at http://www.hacres.com  It is an 85% raw diet..but they still allow yummy foods recipes on the site too! The barely grass drink in mint or berry is pretty good! We do have an expensive juicer but not necessary if you don’t need to store it in the frig! Nice to do a large batch at a time so you can save it though!

Suzzane Summers also has a book..she had cancer too but went the alternative route!

HTH! 🙂

I have not done this but I would certainly consider it if I were diagnosed with cancer or another disease it is meant to treat. Definitely looks like lots of work. I thought about reading the book. You can also contact the Gerson Institute in CA for more information.

I whole heartedly agree w/ Lindsey! It doesn’t hurt to try! We too would go that route first!

There is a IV method using high doses of Vitamin C! check out http://www.mercola.com and search for it!

May God show you the path for you! 🙂

Have you looked into any essential oils? I know they say the Frankincense (I’m sure I can’t spell that) is effective for cancer.

Jenni, your outlook and attitude in the face of this dreadful disease is beautiful. My friend was right. None of the options look good – natural or traditional. It stinks and would never be what we choose. Praying that through this journey, your faith and your family’s will be strengthened.

A dear friend, who passed away a little over a year ago from colon cancer leaving behind her husband and 3 children, told me in the months before she died that she wins either way. Either God would miraculously heal her from a terminal diagnosis and she’d remain here on earth with her family OR she would be in her eternal home with Jesus. She was so calm, peaceful & secure. She even told me what a blessing it had been lying on her bed all those months. When I asked why, she said, “I lie here, unable to move much and my children sit by my side reading scripture to me for hours each day. We studied God’s word before, but never like this.” She was amazing woman whose children are wonderful examples of love, grace, empathy & understanding. I pray I do as well with my own. Your attitude reminds me of her very much. You win either way.

The words of the hymn “Abide with Me” by Henry Lyte give words to my prayer for you. I wish I could attach an mp3 of the version a friend wrote to update the tune. It is how I first learned this hymn and is my all time favorite.

Abide with me; fast falls the eventide;

The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide.

When other helpers fail and comforts flee,

Help of the helpless, O abide with me.

Swift to its close ebbs out life’s little day;

Earth’s joys grow dim; its glories pass away;

Change and decay in all around I see;

O Thou who changest not, abide with me.

Not a brief glance I beg, a passing word;

But as Thou dwell’st with Thy disciples, Lord,

Familiar, condescending, patient, free.

Come not to sojourn, but abide with me.

Come not in terrors, as the King of kings,

But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings,

Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea—

Come, Friend of sinners, and thus bide with me.

Thou on my head in early youth didst smile;

And, though rebellious and perverse meanwhile,

Thou hast not left me, oft as I left Thee,

On to the close, O Lord, abide with me.

I need Thy presence every passing hour.

What but Thy grace can foil the tempter’s power?

Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be?

Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.

I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless;

Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.

Where is death’s sting? Where, grave, thy victory?

I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.

Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes;

Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies.

Heaven’s morning breaks, and earth’s vain shadows flee;

In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.

Bless you and your dear family Jenni, as you walk this difficult path.

Hugs,

Christie

Hi Jenni,

I have not finished reading through all the responses, but wanted to give you a blog and ebook that I’ve recently found. Here’s the blog: http://www.chrisbeatcancer.com/. I follow him on FB and he posts lots of info.

The book I saw posted as a free download a while back and have been slowly reading through it. I’ve seen it free a couple more times since then, but normally it is around $30, I think. But I would consider it very worth every penny for the information in the book. Here is the product page: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007NUYQHI/ref=kinw_myk_ro_title

I am learning so much from this book about what cancer is and various alternative treatment options. I do know of someone that went the Gerson route, but was not succesful. I do not know the details, though, other than she may have waited too late to make any treatment decisions and was already failing by the time she went that route. I’m not even sure on the type of cancer. But I have seen the documentaries mentioned and would certainly give it a serious look. Like Lindsey said, it can’t hurt. But I think from what I have read so far in the above book, I would consider other treatments, as well.

OH, and the doctor Lindsey mentioned in Houston is Burzynski. There is a documentary about him, his treatment and battles with the government, on Netflix, and it can also be rented on Amazon. His treatment is also the first chapter of the book I mentioned above.

I hope all this is helpful, and I will be praying foryou.
