Seriously looking into Fungus as my next research topic! Will let you know what I find. Already very interesting.

Living for Eternity,

Did I not see somewhere that one of us was on an antifungal medication or am I losing it??

    Mary,
    It started out with a

    Mary,

    It started out with a friend of mine whose daughter was diagnosed (age 2) with Leukemia. She had sent me late last year or early this year information on acid/alkaline diets, alternative medicines, read the handbook "The Germ that Causes Cancer" and a few other items for thought.

    I believe as she watched her daughter going through extensive chemos etc. for the last 2 years, she has been reading and educating herself about other alternatives. She said she did not want the disease to take her daughter nor the treatments.

    Anyways, long story short, I read that someone on here or maybe elsewhere with cancer was having to take an antifungal medicine and the handbook I had read months ago had mentioned fungus.

    I thought it worth investigating. And that is what I am going to do. I can't believe the material already online regarding cancer and fungus, but again same thing with sugar feeds cancer, aspargus, etc.

    LOL! I am only on Doxil but it is a higher than "normal" dose and we already know what a normal dose does to me.

    Anything is worth investigating especially when you are on your 4th different treatment.

    I may grow wearing of investigating . . . . . .
