Debbie: I agree with you in so far as the socially acceptable aspect

goes, but was down right insulting. The funny part of this

whole thing is I think it started with my post a few days ago. He

was downright nasty about another poster to me. I did not ans his

post. Then again about the iodine. I did not ans his post and again

about the magnesium (which I am not even using at this time). Nasty

is not acceptable by anyone. I wont tolerate it from my own son and

I know it wont be tolerated by others. Now I have no problem with

being corrected or advised. If I chose not to accept that advise

that is my business. , you just came across to me that you

were downright angry with me for not acknowleging your post and

furious that your advise was not followed. Well that is too bad.

Debbie: You are certainly entitled to your own opinion and I

honestly agree with just about all of it. There is one thing I do

take offense to is that agreed with the enzymes but sounds to

me nothing else. Well this board has alot more that enzymes being

discussed with alot of success. Sorry, this is just how I see

things. Eileen

Eileen,

I agree. I am extremely understanding and do my best to approach everything with

an attitude of love. I also agree that autism is often times rude. Having said

that, I have read lots and lots of things written by adult autistics who talk

about learning how to be less rude and how to work within the social order. Most

of them wanted to learn those lessons and tried hard to understand us NTs, just

like we try to understand autism.

I do not allow my daughter to be nasty either. Yes there are times when she has

a meltdown and honestly can't control her behavior. didn't appear to me

to be having a meltdown. Perhaps as much as we can learn from him, he can learn

from us about how the world works.

We are probably more understanding of behavior than most of the world because we

live with children who have autism. So if he can learn from us that his approach

might be improved, it might help him in interactions outside of this group.

It does not mean we are not loving nor that we are judgmental simply because we

don't appreciate language that is insulting. I seriously doubt that every adult

autistic person acts this way. One thing we need to remember is that autism

doesn't mean people are not individuals with their own individual behaviors.

There are times when my daughter's actions are because of her autism and at

other times, it's because she is a kid acting like a kid, sometimes a kid

misbehaving.

I don't think I help her if I just accept everything she does and give her a

pass on behavior because of autism. She is far too smart to be treated that way.

I would love to hear 's insights, but I don't think it is wrong to suggest

to him that there are better ways to communicate than the way he is choosing. We

are all in this to learn and I happen to think folks with autism can learn just

the rest of us.

Absolutely no offense taken. I truly understand how you felt. I dont think

anyone is mad. I do agree that seems to have understood his

miscommunication. Thats great too. I think we all need to go on with other

topics at this point so we can continue to learn from each other. Eileen

Well if you are hungry you should eat more..

especially fatty meats. You are cheating because you

haven't gotten the sugar out of your system, and gone

through withdrawel.

Each time you go back to it you are restarting the

process over and over again. The best way for you to

get this done is to make a plan.

Cook a bunch of foods in advance, and cook each day

plenty of food and eat when you are hungry. Other

wise you are going to be stuck being hungry with no

appropriate food available.

Always bring food with you so that you have no reason

to cheat.

Luv,

I dont even know if the baking soda has done anything. But I retraced my

steps,and it worked. The tonic on its own may have worked. But if I'm in real

trouble,I'm not inclined to experiement.I have pased plenty of parasites and

flukes. I wasnt quite sure what it was that I passed - but it was about an inch

in diameter and the hot flushes stopped straight away.

Previously, about two years ago, what I passed was distinctly pink pieces of

flesh. All sorts of things came out at that time - I wondered if I was living in

the real world.

 

I found out that the most frighteneing looking thing I passed was a mucoid

plaque. Thats a long ropey looking thing about 9 inches long and a half and inch

or more think. I matched that up to photos on the net.

I'm concerned because the information you are giving out is unscientific and

potentially dangerous, so I feel compelled to comment. I am glad you found

something that you feel is helping you, but I think it's a tad unethical to

share it unless you have a good idea what the potential repercussions are.

It's possible you were passing parasites or flukes, and not tumors, particularly

because as I said in a previous email, the baking soda would do nothing but

neutralize your stomach acid.. a bad thing because most people with dysbiosis

have low stomach acidity already, which is what creates an environment for

bacteria/fungi to flourish.

I'm guessing that some of the other factors in your protocol are doing something

here, but I wouldn't know what without knowing what the ingredients in the

products were.

Many of these things can look alike, particularly when they are obfuscated by

poop, literally. Next time you do this, scoop some samples out of the toilet

and have them analyzed. Labs can identify these things, and then you can

provide some validity to what you are proposing. That's my suggestion anyways.

Thanks Pam! I don't know how you and others do it. You are so helpful

to so many. I just am not very computer smart and with raising 2 young

grandchildren I don't have a lot of time or sometimes mind. Thanks

again...Debbie

G'day Debbie,

I too endorse what my fellow compatriate Sue had to say. I wrote a diary

(not very good), but did record all the side effects I had from Glivec and

what I did, I refused to let CML run my life and still do. Life does get

better and I am now 18 months down the track. Sadly Glivec wasn't for me, I

could only tolerate 200mg, but I was lucky to be able to change over to

Tasigna and no entries in my diary since.

I well remember my first 4 days on Glivec - nothing happened for 3 days then

I woke up feeling like I had hit a brick wall front on and then struggled

for the next 3 days as in my job we were having an accreditation visit in 3

days. I don't know how I got through that day but I did and we got 20/20

which was even better! In the early days of Glivec I was so tired I would

have to sit in the car at lunchtime and sleep for 45 mins. I would set my

phone alarm and having the snooze helped me cope for the day. I am a night

owl and would have to go to bed at 9pm, but eventually that got better and

soon I was back to my old habits of not going to bed until midnight.

The only symptoms I had of CML was aches and pains in all my joints and

feeling tired as my initial white cell climb was found incidentally and I

had no other symptoms. About 3 weeks into having Glivec I woke up one

morning and found I didn't ache any more! Bone pain - well I was blessed in

that I only ever had a couple of slight transient aches in my arm, however

it seems the more disease burden you have the worse the pain as Glivec is

doing it's job killing off the nasty little phillies.

Throughout all this I have worked full time with a busy and demanding job,

shown my Labradors (they were the reason I got out of bed most days), have

sleepless nights whelping puppies and then had family staying for 6 months

and finally my husband had a stroke in August last year and I'm now his

carer.

Life goes on and we deal with it the best way we can. Life never stays

still!

Now - my daughter, her 2 children and a friend who is staying with me and

her 6 year old who has Angelman's syndrome (she was displaced by our

bushfires) have broken out with the chicken pox!!!!! So am I now going to

get them??? Que sera que sera.(sp)

The joys of living!

Ah Bobbie - it was well and truly too late! When my grandson came down with

them we thought they were insect bites by the pattern and he didn't have a

runny nose or any other symptom. If I get them I get them!

PS - congratson going into the Ariad trial.

, have you ever had the chicken pox? If not, stay clear of those that

have them. Childhood diseases are not what you want, When I was pregnant

with my 4th, I came down with the 7 day measles, got them from my girl

friend's kids. I was never so sick in my life, pneumonia, sinusitis,

pleuresy, and the day I broke out with the measles, my kids broke out with

the chicken pox. What a nightmare that month was, baby was born 3 weeks

early, and had to stay in the hospital for 6 weeks until all of the kids

went through the pox and the measles, my son had both at the same time.

So, beware my friend, do not go near them if you have not had the pox,

actually I have heard of people getting it twice!! Good luck, blessings,

Bobby

Thanks Trudy. Have any of you ever seen a picture of your own liver? I have the

one the surgeon that did my gallbladder surgery. Very interesting. Let me know

if you'd like to see it and i'll try to load it here. I don't have a printer

that's compatable with windows 7 so i'll try to take a picture of the picture

and upload it here.

that date. Good thoughts and warm hugs,

No, I've never seen my actual liver. Just the drawings and models in Drs office. But I do have all the pics ( MRI ) of my brain.

Cordie, I can relate to that one!  My mind is jello lately.  I can't finish anything I start and I start a billion things at once..  either that or I will get lost in front of this stupid computer for hours on end.
