Thank you for kind welcome.
Thank you everyone for your kind welcome. There is alot of learning to be had on this site and I hope that I can make a positive contribution.
allmost60 - Thank you for that article. I had not found that article but indeed Dr Leonard is my physician and I have trust in him. If he says it's OK to wait and see what happens then that gives me time to test the Natural Route. I have not ruled out Chemo and whatever treatments he recommends when the time comes. Meanwhile tho I am changing EVERYTHING that goes in my mouth. Someone further down in the correspondence commented that it is the Fighting Spirit within us that keeps us going. I couldn't agree more. I certainly won't go down without a good fight!
I suppose by approaching this for a natural holistic point of view, I feel for the moment the illusion of having some control. Then if that fails I have medical back-up. It's a very scary ride and wish I hadn't bought the ticket but here we go...
Currently, I am on a number of supplements prescribed by my naturopath. Happy to share this info if anyone is interested. My diet consists of Juicing 2-3 times per day. I am on an infrared sauna regime - 3 hrs a day for the next six weeks. Eating at least one raw meal per day, all Vegetarian- Organic of course. Out with Coffee, sugar, meat, dairy, no alcohol (big bummer), no white anything -flour, sugar, rice etc. So Lots of Vegetables. I do eat fish once a week and eggs 2-3x.
I am fortunate to be able to take time off work and make my health my full-time job.
As the detox goes, I feel quite exhausted and am often emotional. It's a crap shoot. I have no idea what is going to happen. There are cases of remission using natural remedies as well as conventional orthodox medicine. There are cases where the cancer takes over no matter what kind of treatments one has. It is truly with the big guy. We are all individuals.
And finally I have some puppy therapy. My family bought me a Blue Heeler Pup for my birthday. He is Peaking Cuteness and makes me smile often. When he can go out he will be my personal trainer tool. That's my favorite thereapy of course.

PS - Should I be writing this stuff in my blog on this site or is this OK to write here?

As far as I am concerned you're fine to write here. As you can see the photo I have chosen is my 6 month old Blue Heeler Puppy Sam.

He takes ALOT of energy and lots of walking to be a good boy, but is very smart and has such a sweet personality. My hubby and a couple friends are doing the walking and trips to the park for me to wear him out (he's so much better tired) which I appreciate more than words can describe.

Just keep your options open honey. You and your doctor will know what's right for you. You will find yourself building a lifelong relationship with them so it's important to find the right balance.

Take care and good luck!
