"Scientists say..." "Studies show..." "My Doctor told me..." What the BLEEP do we know?! We have all been duped into believing what we are told by the proclaimed experts in areas related to our health. And to be fair, we've been told many truths along the way. But as science becomes an increasing ...Read More...

With every new illness, recurrence or threat, there opens a door for... New Opportunities to Heal.

Well, DUH. Ok, "duh" to anyone who has researched the real fundamentals of cancer development, spread and prevention,  However, I was NOT one of those informed until after I had my mastectomy, so there's that.  But little did I know that the changes I did make prior to that surgery made a huge difference ...Read More...

Healing is Forever... The counting of months and years as "cancer free" have fallen flat for me this year.  In fact, days go by where I don't really pay much attention, and when I was asked recently how long it had been since my cancer adventure began, I had to think about it.  But this month of ...Read More...

"Learn to Love Your Cancer"...

When working ...Read More...

Cannabis... I did not included cannabis as part of my cancer protocol, but I certainly would have if I had the access and information that I have in hand today. However, I do have CBD in my nature's medicine cabinet and I'm continuing to research the plant for my own knowledge. While it's the big ...Read More...

I write to heal... As many of you know, my father-in-law passed away early last week.  This came as no surprise as his health had been an issue for many years and his decline was slow, yet imminent.  I always joked with him (lovingly playful) that he was part feline and that he had gone well beyond ...Read More...

It CAN be released...

Too Much Toxicity + Low Immunity = Disease... It really IS that simple!
