Help, please

[Guest guest]

Jim,

You have nothing to apologize for. I find your posts funny and

enjoyable. I'm just so sorry that you are in so much pain, and I have

nothing to suggest.

I am allergic to cottage cheese, so Budwig was tough for me. I switched

to yogurt, but still had trouble with it.

All my love.

Hi Jim,

I'm sorry that you're so much worse. It's thoughtful of you to apologize. It's

also a good release of emotions which is healthy for

anyone. So, although we are all saying that it isn't necessary, I will

also say, 'Thank you.'

I hope that I can offer something that might help you. I'm not suggesting that

these ideas will make eating pain-free, but it may be

less painful so that you can get some cancer-fighting nutrition into your system

and become stronger.

You mentioned that " mets in the menasis " could be causing pain, but I can't

figure out what 'menasis' refers to. I wonder if your gall bladder is involved.

If the gall bladder is not working correctly, it can cause pain when trying to

digest foods, especially oil or fats. That would explain why the FOCC would

cause you more pain than usual. Although as mentioned, it could be allergy or

sensitivity to the cheese.

Whatever the underlying problem might be, below are some suggestions.

I don't know whether you would consider doing an enema, but Dr. Budwig gave a

flax oil enema with about two cups of oil [no cc] at room temp that the patient

held in for a few minutes. This allowed the oil to go into various parts of the

body through the blood vessels in the rectum. It would be best to empty the

rectum with

a warm water enema first if needed. For enema instructions, click here.

http://www.geocities.com/valerie_cct/enemas.html

Below is some information from Dr. Budwig's writings for you to consider. She

explained the following regarding foods for those with digestive problems.

She wrote:

" In liver and gall bladder disease we first only gave (ground) flaxseeds, for

several days besides the regular diet. Only after a few days did we begin with

the actual Oil/Protein Diet, for instance with 1 tablespoon quark (or CC) mixed

with 1 teaspoon flaxseed oil. We then gradually increased the amount depending

on the severity of the case and on tolerance. "

I'm not suggesting that you consume the FOCC if you prefer not to, I

included this statement so that you can see that she began with only flax seeds

and later only a very small amount of oil and CC for those

with digestive problems. The flax seeds alone can help fight cancer.

In her last book in 1999, Cancer - The Problem and the Solution, she listed the

following foods for the very ill who have trouble digesting.

1] Oatmeal 'soup' with freshly ground flax seeds, 3x/day or as often as needed.

[start with a small amount of seeds]

2] Freshly pressed carrot juice at mid-morning.

3] Herbal or green warm teas 3x a day, sweetened only with a little honey.

Oatmeal recipes #157 and #162 from Dr. Budwig's cookbook:

1 cup [8 ounces or 250c] water

3 tblsp natural oat flakes

3 tblsp freshly ground flaxseeds [use fewer seeds to start]

" Put oats into cold water and bring to a boil.

Add ground flax seeds and bring to quick boil, then let stand for 10

minutes to let it swell. Pass the whole mass through a sieve. This gruel is very

healthy...and can be combined with a little milk. It is also valuable for

regulating digestion. "

Vary this recipe by adding pure orange, grape, blueberry or cherry juices.

------------------------------

Jim, besides the information above, I would suggest using Essiac tea, the

original high-quality tea, which by itself is said to strongly work against

cancer. Many people in the FlaxSeedOil2 group believe it helped them.

http://www.theoriginalessiac.com/

Also, you might want to read about the gall bladder. Maybe your gall

bladder contains stones that are blocking the bile needed for digestion. You

could review this website.

http://www.sensiblehealth.com/

Warm soups are sometimes easier to digest because the heat does some of the

softening and 'digesting' for you. Homemade soups that are full of fresh

vegetables would be a good addition to the above information. They are

recommended by Dr. Budwig as part of her diet.

I make an easy one that takes only a few minutes of preparation time and is full

of healthful foods. For one or two servings, I start by bringing to boil two or

three cups of water. I add 2 or 3 Tbs. brown rice, millet or quinoa and let it

boil for about 10 or 15 minutes, then I add cancer-fighting vegetables such as

broccoli [chopped] and grated carrots [when grated they cook faster], diced

yellow onion and the spice, turmeric, plus some tomato paste and already cooked

kidney or black beans. Let it all boil gently for about 8-10 more minutes.

Dish it up and add some sea salt and fresh squeezed lemon juice for more flavor.

If digestion of this soup is painful, try putting it in the blender after it's

made so that it is pureed. BTW, turmeric spice is a strong cancer fighter. You

can also add fresh parsley which is highly nutritious.

By starting off with some of these ideas, you may be able to quickly build some

strength and healthful nutrition. The flax oil also can boost the mood by

calming the nervous system.

Wishing you better days ahead,

Hello jrrjim,

Was it perhaps the " mesentary " where you may have mets?

Jan,

 

Jim can't take LDN. He posted this a few weeks ago. It conflicts with the

Vicodin he is on.

 

[Guest guest]

Dear Jim,

 

My heart is heavy with the news of your recurrence. I can not imagine the fear

and suffering you are going thru. I have thought about you all day long and

re-read your message to the group. I was at work today so couldn't respond any

sooner.

 

had some good points---excellent actually---and these are some of the

same things I was thinking today. Juicing organic green vegetables with some

carrot and green apple and ginger. Colonics certainly!!

 

I had the thought of hopping on a plane and coming to see you. I have a leftover

plane ticket worth $175 that I am willing to donate to you if you need to fly

anywhere. It is with Southwest Airlines. Please let me know if you could use

this. It flys the lower 50 states.

 

I actually had to go to bed and curl up in a little ball thinking about you. I

took a " nap " at work, but was instead thinking the whole time about you. You are

well loved on this site. You have been an inspiration to all of us and your hard

questions blazed the path for many of us who are facing similiar serious cancer

diagnosis.

 

As I told you before, you have fought this battle courageously. Courage is not

the absence of fear. It is the ability to turn fear into action. No one has

shown us a better example then you, Jim.

 

We love you and support you in anyway we can. Our hearts go out to you, your

wife and your children.

 

God Bless you,

 

Dorr

Jim, My sentiments are the same as 's and others. I sent you a private e

mail. I didn't mention the enemas, but that is a good idea.

You can use many things besides flax oil in the form of enema to get

nutrients. The place where I get my enema equipment is Optimal Health Network.

I think they are in Wisconsin. They have a forum as well as e can answer

your questions.

I do hope that you have someone (can't remember if you are married) that can

assist with some of these ideas in getting well.

The naturopaths do not want to do colon therapy on me because I have an

illeostomy and they are afraid the high pressure of the high colonics might

cause damage.

Dear Jim,

I am so sorry and I am praying that you are able to turn this back around and

feel better once again.

May you be led to the exact path of what to do for your healing.

-

if there are mets in mesentery, I would ask if these tumors can be quickly

ablated with gamma knife....

Hi Jim,

I'm new to the group and not familiar with your current diet plan. How is

your veggie intake? Can you take and keep down smoothies? While i'm not a

big fan of colonics (a bit extreme for the system), I am a HUGE FAN of

detoxing one's system. first of all, the green smoothies I twice daily make

are not the most flavorful, but the nutritional density/profile is high.

you can use these sites:

www.nutritiondata.com and www.whfoods.com are good sources to look up the

details of the ingredients you put in your smoothies.

The green smoothies are characterized as having high antioxidants, high

anti-inflammatory ratings, high nutrient density, and help super hydrate

your system naturally flushing out your system and flooding it with rich

nutrients to nourish the body. What isn't used will just be flushed out of

your system.

I choose at least 3 different types of dark greens and include a few other

colors (orange, red, yellow) veggies to throw into the mix.

here we go:

3-4 large collards leaves

2-3 large swiss chard leaves

10-12 sprigs of italian parsley

kale

2 large carrots

1/3 root of beet, leaves/stems of beets (5-6 stems);

16oz water

16oz cup ice

1 large banana

1/2 med. lemon

the idea is to put together as much as one would eat for a meal if the

ingredients were to be cooked/prepared to eat whole. THAT is the

common-sense approach i take to determine quantity required to create my

smoothies. I tend to put higher ratio of greens to other ingredients in

general since they have higher nutrient value per the sites referenced

above.

put water and carrots/parsley in first and blend to pulp,, then add chopped

veggies one at a time and blend til smoothe. i add the lemon and follow up

w/banana last AFTER the cup of ice. the above typically makes about 48oz of

smoothie (more or less). might not taste great... but i prefer function

over form (taste) when it comes to my concoctions.

if this is all you ingest over the next 10 days as a meal replacement

(basically a liquid diet), your body will begin to absorb the nutrients of

these smoothies and push out all the crap in your system (toxins, drugs,

etc) leaving your system more ready to take in the " good stuff. " the idea

in my understanding /layterms is to follow the principals of " we become what

we consume " and " what goes in, must come out (or manifest) " following these

principals, the objective is to innundate your system with nothing but

" natural, live, fresh nourishment for your body. " while doing this, I do

not take in any prepackaged/processed foods, i minimize (or even avoid)

carbs and meats. but if you don't want to be so militant about the carbs

and meats during the detox period, just make sure your sources are " clean

and natural " - no processed foods; no gluten; no sugars; no fruits; minimal

to no white carbs (breads, pastas, rice)... beans, lentils are good sources

for carbs and protein during this short session.

not to say this is the cure - cuz i can't legally nor statistically back

that... BUT this has a lot of upside to it. the key is to be consistent

with it over the short 10day period. at the very least, i minimize my

carb/meat intake... and again, it doesn't have to be super restrictive...

but at the same time, there has to be some standard or regimen to stick to.

IF you've never tried this, giving this a fair try over the next 10 days (at

LEAST) will provide benefits you can find out firsthand. if done

consistently.. you're gonna have some major BM -that's a good thing- to rid

yourself of the bulk of the toxins in your system.

just my 2cents... good luck, i wish you well!
