Dear parents and caregivers,
I want to share some good resources that may be helpful to especially those who have children newly diagnosed with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma. You can go to http://www.prayersfrommaria.org/ourChildren.html to find other children fighting this tumor and the many that have passed from it. All of these parents are very kind and most are more than willing to help you in ANY possible way they can.
There is a wonderful nutritionist that specializes in brain tumors. Dr. Jeanne Wallace is very knowledgeable and can tell you supplements, herbs, and diet suggestions that will help control the cancer. The homeopathics, Ruta Grav 6C and Cal Phos 3X are showing good success rates in gliomas in particular. If you are not familiar, I suggest you join the Ruta6 Yahoo Group.
Call around and see if you can find a good holistic/chiropractic doctor in your area. The man we found has been key in our daughters healing and has taught us volumes. He introduced us to low level laser therapy and methods of detoxification, including footbaths to pull heavy metals from our daughters body. Also, our chiropractor manipulates the bones around her brain stem to encourage fluid movement, works with us on diet, examines which supplements work best for her and how much of them to give her, and encourages us with Christian thinking.
The latest treatment I have started about 3 months ago is a properly combined mixture of cottage cheese and flaxseed oil once a day. The treatment is a large part of the Budwig Diet and the science behind it is very solid and Kayla has always loved cottage cheese. Actually the entire Budwig Diet has proven very successful however we are only doing a portion of it. Look in the files of the flax oil/cottage cheese yahoo group to learn more.
There are MANY other wonderful and non toxic ways to heal. I have only started to discover them all. Other parents have used other alternative treatments successfully as well. The purpose of this letter is to let parents know that other options exist besides what the doctors tell you. I know our culture revolves around conventional medicine so it is easy to think that the only way to heal is through radiation and various chemotherapies. This was my mindset at the beginning too. Just as the bible points out, know that there are nutrients that God put here specifically to heal us.
Trust in God to get you through whatever it is you are going through. No matter where you are or what you have done, with a pure heart you can ask for His help 24/7. This is not a guarantee that you will have the outcome you desire but it is a guarantee that you will get through it with grace and mercy. You will be blessed.
In Christ,
