biggest scare ever

So glad your daughter is on her way back to good health. Welcome back. Now please take care of yourself

 

So glad your daughter is ok. I think something happening to your kids is every parents worst nightmare. A timely reminder to not fret the little things and cherish every moment with them, big and small.

 

Wow - that really is scary. Glad it worked out OK.

It really does put things in perspective, doesn't it!

 

Hey, I've missed you. So good that this story has a positive ending.

 

So sorry to hear what you had to go through and so glad that it is all over. Not only you, but this would make your daughter a much much stronger person as well. Hope she is okay and not too shaken by it

 

Yes, modern medicine is a miracle. One of the real significant advances in the last 50years or so. The efficacy of medical technology has exponentially increased. Almost certainly looks set to continue as well as technologies advance and application to medicine also advances. Hint hint: buy some well chosen biotech shares...

 

Hi Bran. I understand where you are coming from with this and it exactly right that you should encourage people to seek a proper diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible. I think that hope, faith and alternative therapies along side that can help people, but the priority is to get onto proper treatment first. My dad has been having various treatments for a while and is getting regular scans. He is also very positive, is drinking some kind of tea? and walking every day. He's lasted longer than expected, which I put down to excellent doctors, excellent treatment and also his attitude to life. Back when he was working, he saw people go into hospital, lose the will to live and literally will themselves to death. Some of them the doctors couldn't even find anything wrong! So I agree with you to get proper treatment but then have faith and hope that it will work!

 

Yep- no problems with this at all. Do what you've got to do to get through. Hopefully your Dad keeps kicking on !

 

Looking like another 5 years at least

Sorry to hear about your traumatic experience. And congratulations on finding no trace of the dis-ease. And perhaps it was a gift to help you focus on all you've learnt, talked about and written about?

Have you watched Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor's, Stroke of Insight . She's a doctor/scientist and gets a stroke and works back to heal herself?

Secondly, you may be interested to read Anita Moorjani's, "Dying to be me". Anita was given 36 hours to live and somehow her cancer healed. She has a few videos on You Tube with her story. Very interesting.

Thirdly, a bit out there, but I recently read The Emotion Code by Dr. Bradely Nelson. Dr. Nelson believes that humans can heal with the use of magnet on the primary meridian. He uses kinesiology (muscle testing) to determine trapped emotions causing dis-ease to heal. It's thought provoking!

All the best,
MsAli

 

As a mother I could not read your post without feeling incredibly emotional and tearful...that strong primal love a mother shares with her child to then be told that your child may die...indescribable pain...I cannot even begin to imagine walking in your shoes through such a painful journey Xenia. Your have shared a true miracle with us and I thank you for sharing your story. It puts everything into perspective.

 

I have the same view point MsAli - so many examples.

 

Actually, another two books worth looking into would be "Your Body Doesn't Lie" by Dr. John Diamond. Dr. Diamond talks about the Thymus glad which controls our immune system and is linked to cancer. Been sometime since I read it, but it got me thinkin.

And, Power vs. Force by Dr. David Hawkins

 

welcome back @Xenia - ALEXA Real Estate . Very glad your daughter is healthy.

God bless.

 

thanks for sharing your story. We all love happy ending stories, but it is also good reminder to us what could have happen and we have to enjoy our life now, not tomorrow.

 

Xenia, had no idea this was happening to you.
Such a powerful lesson in love, faith and prayer and never giving up on your loved ones and never taking anything for granted - even life itself, it is so fragile.
Mercifully, your agony was short but it must have felt like a lifetime.

This reminds me of what is happening with my own family.
My cousin's mother-in-law was diagnosed with cancer a few months ago.

My cousin read a book called World Without Cancer: The Story of Vitamin B17 Laetrile [G. Edward Griffin]. Her friend recommended her to buy apricot kernels which contains this substance, Laetrile, which is akin to an arsenic compound that supposedly only releases its payload on cancer cells, killing them and not healthy cells. This theory and method of treatment is not without controversy.
So she asked me to buy apricot kernels which contains Vitamin B17 and ship them to her so she can get her mom-in-law to take them, approximately 30 per day. I think more than that, like, 40-60 a day is poisonous, can make you really sick. Apparently, the theory is that normal people should chew approximately 7 apricot kernels per day to prevent cancer if their family has a history of cancer.

I have no idea whether it works or not. I know there are heaps of testimonies out there on the Internet and at the health food shop (they get heaps of miraculous stories of cures and even pharmacists that buy boxloads).
I just dutifully ship packets of apricot kernels to her every month at her request. So far, her mom-in-law is holding up well.

I'm not recommending this treatment over conventional oncological treatment but thankfully your little girl does not have to endure any treatment.

 

Congratulations!
Its always good to be able to apprrciate whats inportant in life.

You never realise how important things are when you are about to lose them or lose them

 

Sorry Xenia for what you and your family have gone through but i'm glad your daughter is doing well and that it was a false alarm.

 

Xenia, I am so, so sorry you had to go through that experience. I'm really glad it turned out well but there would have been a period there of grief. What a shock. Sounds like you have absolutely amazing friends and a great support system. You are lucky.

I am so glad your little girl is okay. We are only as happy as our unhappiest child. And had she had to go through chemo, she would most probably have been miserable and in pain.

My husband had a stroke when he was 38. It was a brain stem injury. Only 1 in 26 people survive them. I too, like you, asked everyone to send good energy--whatever form that might take. He recovered. It was the second hardest time of my life. I had two little children to look after, and I always put on a happy face for them; I didn't want them to worry about me or their dad.

One of my children had a lump removed. They thought it was a mole. It turned out to be a basal cell carcinoma. They'd never seen anyone so young with this kind of cancer. When the specialist told me that it was a cancer he took out I was in shock.

Of course that doesn't compare to being told that cancer has taken over your child's body. I can only imagine how you felt. Hugs to you.

 

@Xenia - it's stories like this that help some appreciate life just that little bit more.

You were and are so very fortunate.
