This is a fantastic group - I'm glad to hear that you've already gained some

insight from reading through posts. And I have to agree with you - our banded

Cory,

I recently went through the Helmet/Band Database to see if I could

find any new or more specific websites about each of the entries to

add. I also found the OU Orthotics and Prosthetics Department link

very interesting and informative, containing a lot of good contact

info! As often as things change on the internet, I hope to be able

to review the Helmet/Band Database for accuracy and new information

every so often.

Hi Anita,

My name is Dawn..

the daldre throws ya off doesn’t it.. like

where’d I get that from.. anyway, glad to hear

that the agenda is exactly as you have stated and I am very sorry that certain

people have attacked you with your son. You have to realize that it is probably

coming from their not having the knowledge of the benefits that the coffee

enema has on the body… I assume your son is sick with possibly candida or parasites? Whatever the case, we all need to

realize that out there in the real world there are the ‘conventional”

believers and the “alternative” believers. Some of these things

that are done for detox purposes seem totally off the

wall to the average person. I thought so myself until I became so sick that I actually

chose to do these totally strange things my doctor ordered me to do… such

as a castor oil patch on my liver, drinking straight lemon juice with cayenne

and olive oil, etc.

Hi Dawn, I couldn't have said it better myself. After thirty years of being sick every day of my life and relying on conventional medicine only to get worse over time I choose alternative medicine for myself and my son. I have been detoxing for about a year now and even though I laid off due to a bad car accident and to devote my energies to my son I have still made great improvements. As for my son the coffee enemas were ordered by not one but two different doctors. One of these doctors did tests through 's Hopkins. Had I relied on conventional medicine for my son he would be taking and antidepressant that they are now warning about on the commercials. I believe the warning is that children and teenagers may be in danger of suicide while using this drug. Thanks for the post Dawn.

Hi All,

Well, a year ago I was in a wheelchair. I wasnâ€™t able to do much except sit and watch TV. That alone was a challenge as my eyes are also bad. On July 21 I began taking LDN. Not long ago I started taking stand up showers and that was a big deal. Today for the first time in 18 months I mowed my grass. I didnâ€™t do the whole yard (just the small front) and I used a self propelled mower but, I did it. I imagine that the more I do it will strengthen my walking. The more independent I am the better.

Good for you..one room at a time is the way to do it.

I too moved from a two story to a ranch but it was before

I was diagnosed. Sure glad I did though. We do have a finished

basement. But I tend to let things pile up before making a trip to

go down there. It's mostly for my teens and their friends that we

finished the basement.

Staying positive is a good step, especially when you are taking the Meds that do

have side effects of mood disorders, and the disease its self can cause

depression. I keep myself physically active all the time, exercise 3x a week and

I also walk 10-15 miles a week. I clean houses for elders and I still cut the

acre of grass with a push mower. I'm 47 years young, and I firmly believe the

more you stay active the better you feel. I have been through enough theraphy to

know it does make a difference. I quit smoking over a year ago as well to add to

my healthy life style, I am going to enjoy my life regardless, I am also a

traditional dancer at POW WOW. I know I am a bit slower than before but I give

my self the time needed to do things. You are on a good path. Jean

I know the surgery probably isn't for everyone and if I hadnt been in

constant pain I wouldnt have had surgery. But my problems started Oct

of 2006 and I never knew what it was until Sept of 2007. Once I

cancelled the first surgery they put me on Urso (actigall) and from

then on I was in pain all the time, it was a constant ache in my gut

that never went away.It was worse than having the extremly bad attacks

every few weeks like I had been having for a year. It was ruining my

life, I was in a bad mood all the time from being in pain, I couldnt do

anything and even the Oxy wasnt helping. So I was just at a loss and

didnt know what to do.

I'm curious, since you joined this forum (which is totally geared

toward liver flushes and internal cleansing) and posted here asking

for advice, would you mind sharing why you didn't at least try to do

what's advocated here and give yourself a series of liver flushes to

remove the stones painlessly and non-invasively before deciding to go

under the knife and have your gall bladder removed permanently? I've

been reading a lot about gallstones and liver flushing, and it sounds

to me, like Jess said, that there are a lot of people who have their

gall bladders removed surgically, and yet still end up with pain from

stones, so I'm just confused as to why someone wouldn't at least try

to hang onto their internal organs, by doing what they could to clean

them out from the inside, before having them cut out.

elan

December 11, 2007

You can't get your gall bladder back. Nor you can't go back to the time, you

wish you still have that gall bladder. All you should do now is be careful of

what you're eating and drinking. You're wrong if you decided to have your gall

bladders removed, so, you could enjoy back all the foods and drinks you could

enjoy. Those gallstones may come and attack your kidney next time. Or even your

heart, which could finally kill you in an instant. Be very careful now of what

you eat and drink. Trace back, or recall in your past what foods and drinks

triggered your pains. Then, evade from it. Generally, however, the main cause

of gallstone growths are oily foods, specially foods that have saturated oils.

They're very hard to digest. So, these oils stick to your system (at gall

bladder and kidney), which later forms into stones (gallstone in gallbaladder,

kidney stone in kidney, end even to the arteries of your heart). Carbonated

drinks like soda and beer are enemies of your

internal system (stomach, heart, kidney, etc.). Evade from it, too. While eggs

and milk are good for your health, too much of them is dangerous, too.

If you have not resisted from eating oily foods, like in social parties, be

sure to drink a lot of water after eating. Never add to that oily food in the

party a soda or wine in your drink. Oily food, beverage, and wine combination

is unhealthy. It will surely trigger a gallstone attack. Your intention in

drinking a lot of water after eating oily food in a party, is to wash out those

oily foods immediately, instead of letting those oils run to your gall bladder

or any part of your system. In small gatherings (like after meetings in a Knight

of Columbus conference), where pizza and soda are served, just to let my

brothers feel that I enjoy their company with the pizza, all I do is remove all

the toppings of the dough before I eat it.

Like a clogged drainage where we drop Drano liquid for whole night, at night,

I drink one or two glasses of pure apple juice to wash away or neutralize oil

content of my stomach at night. This way, while we're lying on bed (on our

sleeping time) oil content of our stomach goes with our food wastes to the large

intestine, not to the gall bladder.
