Isn’t science wonderful?! 

Did you know the chemicals that make up our emotional feelings only stay in our blood for 90 seconds? 90 Seconds!  We all have the power to cycle out of worry, anger or fear…here’s how.  Feel how your “mood” or “attitude” or “feeling” actually feels in your body.  Are you calm?  Peaceful?  Happy?  Is life feeling pleasant right now?  If not, then REST, put yourself on PAUSE for 90 seconds.  STOP whatever you are doing.  Breathe.  Breathe again.  Breathe once more.  Then shift your thoughts to anything or anyone you love and allow your chest to relax: music, sunsets, mountains, oceans, dogs – and keep picturing and thinking and breathing for 90 seconds.  This isn’t a game, this is physiology.  You must be truly engaged with your emotions for this to work…and it does work!  You are the conductor of your internal chemical orchestra.   

‘Cure’ is found for skin cancer, claim scientists…….WOW I can’t wait to hear more on this.

I had stage 4 melanoma and there really is no real effective treatment even today.  Not much progress has been made over the last 15 years.  This is from a report out of the UK.
Scientists believe that they have found a cure for skin cancer.

A vaccine being tested in the UK has helped been shown to help some patients fully recover from melanoma, even in its advanced stages.

It attacks tumour cells, leaving healthy cells undamaged and carries agents that boost the body’s response to skin cancer.
Dr Howard Kaufman, of Chicago’s Rush University Medical Centre, said: “Our study shows we may have a cure for some advanced melanoma patients and a drug which has real benefits for others.

“This will save thousands of lives a year.”

 “A natural approach to cancer is based on making your body healthier. To strengthen a depleted, worn out, under energized immune system that is not capable of killing cancer cells as fast as they are multiplying. “

This is an article written by a friend of mine that I wanted to share.  As I continue my cancer support, I want to share this view.  This is information I just knew early on in my cancer survivor journey.  Read my blog post yesterday on truth!!!

Use this information in your journey to health.  If conventional treatment is right for you…great…!!  Also consider other ways to heal.

Here is new research you must read on drugs used for treating cancer! 

Again use what feels right to you in choosing your treatment plan.  I am here to offer cancer support and as a cancer survivor speaker, I am here to speak to you on all topics related to cancer survival. 

Cancer Drugs Make Tumors Grow 

Drugs like Avastin that are used to treat some cancers are supposed to work by blocking a vessel growth-promoting protein called vascular endothelial growth factor, or VEGF. With VEGF held in check, researchers have assumed tumors wouldn’t generate blood vessels and that should keep malignancies from growing. In a sense, the cancerous growths would be “starved”. But new research just published in the journal Nature shows this isn’t true. Instead of weakening blood vessels so they won’t “feed” malignant tumors, these cancer treatments, known as anti-angiogenesis drugs, actually normalize and strengthen blood vessels — and that means they can spur tumors to grow larger.

As a cancer survivor, I have been through years of testing using CT and xrays.  I always laid there wondering how good this radiation could be for me.  Then I thought the cancer will kill me first so I had to do it.  I was constantly weighing the options of what is harmful and what was good for my body and cells.  It is so difficult, especially since most of us going through this cancer testing are emotionally not balanced and physically not balanced.  Then we have to make life saving decisions.  WOW!

Tell me what you think about the data and information on radiation testing and potential damage.  Leave a comment.

I wanted to pass along some information forwarded to me so we can all be informed.  As your cancer survivor speaker I will continue to share info I find or receive so we can all make informed choices for ourselves and family.  Remember to read it with an open heart and find out what is true for you.

There is so much we don’t know….share it with friends.

I received this information from a friend whose mother recently passed away. Apparently, this was caused by a medication that is deadly. Here are the details, and I suggest you pass it on to your loved ones and others.

How to Slash World Cancer Rates By 90 Percent: Healthy Foods, Exercise and Vitamin D
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor

(NaturalNews) Although you won’t hear this from the cancer industry or the drug companies that profit from cancer, there’s an easy, low-cost and remarkably safe way to slash cancer rates around the world by about one-third, says the World Cancer Research Fund: Promote healthy foods and exercise! (http://www.wcrf-uk.org)

According to research just released by the WCRF, simple changes in diet and exercise can prevent nearly 40 percent of breast and pancreatic cancers, 36 percent of lung cancers, over 60 percent of mouth cancers, a quarter of kidney cancers and 45 percent of bowel cancers.

Remarkably, these results were achieved without any mention of vitamin D! By adding vitamin D to the mix, which by itself has been demonstrated to prevent an astonishing 77 percent of all cancers (http://www.naturalnews.com/021892.html), cancer prevention rates approaching 90 percent overall can be easily achieved.

Common Mouthwash Products Boost Risk of Oral Cancer by 900 Percent
by David Gutierrer

The use of mouthwashes that contain alcohol as an ingredient can drastically increase a person’s risk of cancers of the mouth, head and neck, according to a study conducted by researchers from the Australia’s University of Melbourne and University of Queensland School of Dentistry.

Researchers studied use of mouthwash among 3,210 people and compared it with rates of mouth, head and neck cancers.

“We see people with oral cancer who have no other risk factors than the use of [mouthwash containing alcohol], so what we’ve done is review all the evidence,” said lead researcher Michael McCullough, chair of the Australian Dental Association’s therapeutics committee,

Hormone Replacement Therapy is near to my heart because the doctors pretty much made me take it before they would let me out of the hospital.  I was 36 years old.  Cancer Survivor speaker Sheila Ulrich, told them a day would come when HRT was found to be harmful.  Are we at that day? 

I didn’t know anything about HRT at the time, but something was nagging deep within to be cautious………………………………..

Now here we are in 2009…………….and what are we suspecting about HRT???  It is quite a controversy.

Tell me what you think. 

Hormone Replacement Therapy Doubles Risk of Breast Cancer, Women Warne to Stop HRT Drugs

by Mike Adams Natural News Editor

Drug companies can no longer deny the science: Breast cancer risk is doubled for women who take conventional Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) drugs.

So many of us carry our hurts and sadness from the past to this very moment.  Then in this very moment we react in anger from something in the past.  It is really not the moment, or what is said or done in the moment, that we are angry about.  It is usually something that triggered a past memory, which we became angry about back then, and we are still carrying around with us.

What past memories are you carrying around with you?  What are you still angry about?  Who are you still angry at?

Make the list……………………

You cannot heal until you let the anger go……………………
