Re-Thinking



Hi There,

Looks like my body really does not like chemotherapy. Even if Gemzar and Cisplatin work in vitro, as the Nagourney assay showed, that combination does not work for me.

My PET scan sucked big time, lots of progression. While numbers and digital pictures help us gauge what is happening with our bodies in this crazy mixed up world, I refuse to let that get me down. I am taking several supplements to help halt the progression of the cancer, NAC and Quercitin, suggested by Dr. Anthony Bazzan. I need time detox from all the chemo, (which made me so sick I had to have a blood transfusion with platelets thrown in for good measure) and rethink what the hell I am going to do. I do know I am going to juice fast, then perhaps water fast while I decide what to do next. Fasting is a very powerful way to get the body to heal.

Heal!

Hi Kiki,
My name is Liz and I have been following your blog for a while now. I am truly sorry that your Pet Scan came back slightly less than optimal. On the other hand I am very impressed by the amount of courage and optimism you have. Hopefully you have not posted in a while because things are going a bit better.
That said, since your blog is a great resource for someone going through cancer I wanted to reach out to you to see if you were interested in a new online social support network (that I am the community manager of!) called I Had Cancer. It is a new and free social support network focused on connecting people based on experiences with cancer so that they can easily communicate with one another and share information. I would love to tell you more if you are interested, so please let me know! Because I was so struck by your writing I would love to send you an early-access pass with extra invites for others you may know going through this journey.

Either way, thank you so much for your writing. Take care and best regards.
