Hi All,
I have a friend whom I have been Reiking since she was diagnosed with uterian cancer. Her surgery is scheduled in a couple of weeks. They are thinking that it is very possible that it has spread to a small portion of her stomach, spleen and not certain of other possibilities.

I had posted a question on Crystals as far as any healing stone suggestions. I was wondering if anyone had any other suggestions in terms of alternatives - even if it's just something to help her spirit and nerves.

We all know that she is extremely nervous (who wouldn't be!!), but she is dealing with this with a tremendous sense of humor. It's a little tough for everyone else to react to this and make light, but we try to keep her spirits up.

Any suggestions would be warmly accepted!!

Peace and light!
big grin

There may be legal issues in regards to this where you are, but when my father had colon cancer last year the radiologist recommended that my father smoke a couple of marjhuana cigarettes every day to ease the symptoms as well as the pain or the surgry, plsu it was to keep him mellow, as being nervous and having a negative outlook can impede rcovery.

you had posted a response to my question indicating that you have the same health issue as my friend.....I wanted to tell you that this morning she had her surgery - - even though they had definitely thought it had spread - it was GREAT NEWS!!! The doctor said that it had not spread as they had thought and that they were able to remove EVERYTHING!!

I only hope that yours goes as well!!! You will be in my thoughts.

Has your friend tried B17 they are apricot kernels which research was done to find thatit was a deficiency in this minral that caused cancer! It is illegal to sell as medicine but perfectly legal to sell as a spice product just do google search for "b17" "latrael" "Cancer" "kernals" and you will find many websites who sell them!
Good Luck Love and Peace,
SHONA!!

Apricot "kernels" - another version of Laetrile, which doesn't work, either. I'll bet there ARE a lot of websites selling this stuff, but they're just ripping you off. Don't waste your money on that scam. If anything was known to "cause" or cure cancer, we would all know about it, believe me. This stuff has been disproved so many times it's not funny. This is not meant to be a put-down of you, Shona, but I think you had better do some more research. Catty (who distrusts "anecdotal" evidence) roll eyes

I don't know what the current situation with your friend is, as I am replying quite late after the fact. I would recommend that your friend look into possible complementary therapy with whatever her treatment is.

Immune boosters, for example, may be useful, as the immune system can help in the fight against cancers. She should talk to her doctor about possibly adding burdock. shitake and maitake mushrooms, and garlic to her cancer fighting treatment. I realize most alopathic doctors may be resistant, but perhaps her oncologist is willing to use the two approaches hand in hand. It is important, if she is going to use any natural supplementation that she ask about possible interactions and the like. Research is the key.
