On Wednesday of this week we went to the chiropractor in Oregon again...the one who found the curved tailbone, straightened it - allowing healing to begin.
This visit was slow and deliberate - checking over each part of Jesse's body. I won't list all the adjustments made - I wrote notes of which the page filled and I was squeezing into the margins. Achilles on left twisted, fixed foot to straighten...L4 and L5 lumbar out of place....and the biggie - the sacrum bone was tilted forward, and needed to be repositioned. This was stubborn to adjust with the chiropractic furniture and required a manual adjustment similar to the tailbone.
I honestly don't know how Jesse handled it - I watched that take place. For the chiropractor - it was difficult - it took all of his strength. Jesse told me after he could not have withstood much more pain. Prayers requested that this 2nd, major adjustment to the spine and skelatol system stays in place and that the bones and muscles adjust and heal.
This adjustment has put Jesse back to experiencing greater pain. This was no ordinary adjustment, but a major shift in how the body is structured...almost like an outpatient surgery, if you consider what really took place.
I set up an appointment for him today with an acupuncturist in Madison that I know through a businesswomen's group that I belong to. She also inferred that the two major adjustments Jesse has had would be enough to cause anyone pain. The session went for over an hour - but the body has limits. She wasn't going to push it any further, and Jesse can decide if he wants to visit again.
Fortunately the Lafuma zero gravity chair arrived today...it is the most comfortable chair he has experienced. The heat from the mini Bio Mat, while sitting, helped...but he is in pain. I doubt the OxyCoden will provide much benefit this evening. Prayers are needed for sleep and pain relief.
I had signed up for the Cure for Cancer Summit - which anyone can listen to online. I won't be able to catch all of the talks...but tonight listened to Leigh Erin Connealy, MD/Oncologist of the Center for New Medicine in California. Connealy listed testing that can catch cancer ten years before it shows in a medical imaging scan or thermography. She also mentioned tests she uses on her patients, of which there are quite a few, including the HCG.
We did receive the HCG test results back for Jesse from the Navarro Medical Clinic. The news was good, in my opinion, as the number was much lower than expected, 52.6. The sample was taken on August 24 and mailed on the 25th - very quick results. Comments were that the elevated and positive number are likely a result of "remnants/microscopic remains of prostrate cancer into the bones". Numbers can be as high as 10,000 for certain types of cancer. I have a few questions to send the doctor who provided the results, but it certainly seems we are going in the right direction with restoring cells to being healthy team players, and as well, perhaps knocking some off with the BioMat and infra-red sauna heat, and detoxing .
Jesse began his anti-inflammatory, alkaline based eating protocol on June 21st. Gradually, we added in more supplements as information gathering began and we talked with doctors and those who have gone through alternative and radical remission themselves.
I need to jump on board with this anti-inflammatory eating lifestyle - as in day to day diligence...and will start the Arbonne 30 day program on the 15th of this month. Several classes are coming up - but Dr. Connealy was very clear in her Summit talk that inflammation is a precursor to all cancer and disease. Per Connealy, everyone should have a C-Reactive Protein test to measure inflammation as it provides a very early warning that something is amiss.
May your C- Reactive Protein test measure no more than one,
Rita

Turning 52, First Day of School, Intro to Bio Mat
If it were not for the pain in his hip and leg Jesse said he would actually be feeling very good. We return to see our "angel" chiropractor today, the one who discovered Jesse's tailbone curving under the spine and pinching off the prostrate. The massage therapists are noticing a hard, bone-like protrusion on his right side, but below the hip bone. It is not on the left side.
We need to determine what this is and perhaps Dr. B can give us some insight that we can then speak to the oncologist about. I still feel like an MRI is a smart tool to use in Jesse's one affected area.
After the weekend of having the Richway Amethyst Bio Mat on loan, it was hard to let it go. It made such a difference. We put in an order last night for the professional mat and the mini, as it is recommended to "sandwich" cancer patients between the two. Bio Mats have been reported to shrink tumors and even make them disappear...my chiropractor, Joe Teff, had told me this when I have expressed interest in a BioMat. He researches everything thoroughly, and I trust his opinions.
If you are interested in testing it out, as my cousin did this weekend - with noticeable improvement with the cyst on her leg, let's talk. I am considering letting friends and family try the bio mat for a donation to Jesse's cancer treatment fund.
Jesse's workstation at ETC has been converted to a standing station - this will be a great help to him. Nothing is worse than sitting when one has issues relating to the lower lumbar, speaking as one with a history of low back surgeries.
I am also hoping we can get the oncologist appointment rescheduled today. It was supposed to be last Wednesday when Jesse awoke in so much pain he could barely move. He opted for the chiropractor and relief over an oncologist.
We are grateful for the turn around. The Lord is good and at work...the Master Carpenter reconstructing those bones inside and making my husband strong again.
May you feel His healing Presence wherever it is needed in your life,
Rita

Starting the Budwig Protocol
There is a lot to learn...for example, taking Vitamin C therapy while taking the Budwig mixture cancels one another out. Also, one cannot use another high alkaline plan such as Ceesium Chloride with the Budwig.
What I do know is this protocol should help add weight back on. This past week Jesse did say he has gained two pounds...and perhaps it is because I have been making as many shakes for him as I can, adding in avocado.
The basic recipe for the Budwig protocol actually tasted pretty good.
6 T. organic low fat cottage cheese (Nancy's brand, or in the area, direct from Hershberger Farm)
3 T. Barleen's flaxseed oil
2 T flaxseeds, freshly ground
1 t. raw honey - we use Bucks, locally available at Crossroads Coffeehouse or Enchanted Valley Eggs - both of Cross Plains, WI
Use immersion blender to completely emulsify cottage cheese and flaxseed oil ingredients until all oil is absorbed. Mixture looks like creamed cheese.
In a clean coffee grinder, grind flax seeds until very fine. This must be done fresh every time.
Lightly fold flax and honey into creamed cottage cheese mixture. It reminded me of cheesecake when I tasted it.
We served with fresh organic blueberries. Jesse thought it tasted pretty good, but did say he really appreciates the berries with it. Our understanding is we only have to do this once a day, which is certainly much easier than juicing every hour. I will have to experiment and see what else we may do with the mixture.
Trusting in His Healing Promise,
Rita

Cancer? Second Opinions...Immediate Actions
We have had 2nd and third opinions...from a trusted male hormone expert friend in California, as well as others with holistic practitioners. It is important to get at least one other 2nd opinion, in my opinion. ;-)
When the news was delivered we were told the PET scan results showed us two options:
1. Cancer
2. bacterial infection
We wanted someone to tell us it was a bacterial infection, but as Jesse was not sick at all until the diagnostic scans (a pulled muscle and visit to the ER is how this began) - no one has given us any indication we are dealing with anything other than cancer. Typically a PET follows a biopsy to show where the cancer is located, but in our case diagnostics were performed the other way around.
WHAT WE HAVE DONE...
In June, when we were made aware that something was amiss...and after returning from a family vacation Jesse went full force on an all alkaline diet since June 21...no sugar, no meat or animal by products of any kind. He has been eating vegetables - juicing once a day, drinking alkaline, vegan smoothies, and has increased and added to his daily vitamin and mineral supplementation.
The greatest help we have found is in Bill Henderson's book, "Cancer Free" - and we went directly to chapter 5 for a protocol that could reverse cancer cells in as little as six weeks - depending upon the type of cancer. The protocol reduces inflammation (a commonality among all cancers), and boosts the immune system so it can fight cancer.
We've determined the cause - this was the game changer!....the tailbone adjustment opened the path to rebuilding the immune system. Cancer is a systematic disease...not a localized disease in one part of the body. We are blessed to have found such a clear cause.
Working with a hormone expert/doctor friend in California, we have implemented high dose vitamin D3 therapy, and progesterone. Both are highly successful in treating prostrate disease.
As of August 11, an oral form of vitamin C, that is supposed to be more powerful than Vitamin IV therapy arrived and Jesse has started taking this supplement as well. This therapy was mentioned in the Henderson book, and Vit. C IV Therapy has excellent results for prostrate, and breast cancer.
At some point I will find time to share our protocol on this blog.
In these three weeks since we first had news, Jesse feels better, and has regained much strength. He does have pain, but it is undetermined if it is from a prior bulged disc/rotating hip...or from the "c" word. Our massage therapist, who worked on Jesse today, did comment that his right hip is rotated forward. Wouldn't it be great if all his pain were actually related to muscle and joints that require chiropractic services?
We hope to have a new PSA test back very soon. The first PSA was no doubt skewed by the AndroGel testosterone cream Jesse was on. We expect different numbers, yes, but we still expect cancer. The likely fact is...the tailbone cut off blood supply to the prostrate gland, no blood supply means little to no oxygen. A cell lacking oxygen becomes cancerous. We can't change this, but we can and are moving forward.
May your cells have plenty of oxygen this day!

Finding The Cause of a Cancer
How many people, who have cancer, actually know the cause? For some types of cancer it may seem obvious...we have been brought up to learn that smoking can cause lung cancer, for instance. However, for most...the cause remains a mystery...and we just go forth, diagnose and treat.
One thing is for certain, cancer doesn't happen overnight. Many tumors are 10 years in the making. Thermography is a great, non-toxic, diagnostic tool. For example, this method can detect areas of concern in breast tissue ten years before a mammogram will. Unfortunately, insurance will rarely cover this diagnostic marvel. I do have a friend, who is a breast cancer survivor, who refuses radiation mammograms, and has her doctor refer her for thermography. I believe her insurance then covers it, because of her history of cancer.
In Jesse's case, once we (not they, but we) looked at the body as a whole...a pretty clear picture has been painted as to the cause. Here is how this came about...and the BIG lesson in this is that a shrinking prostrate should be JUST AS concerning as an enlarged prostrate. it's rare, but it can happen and below is one reason why...
A friend of ours felt led to arrange a consult with a retired chiropractor that has helped her family for over 30 years. Jesse's back pain issues were improving after he recently switched to my chiropractor, so I wasn't sure there was a need. But our friend was insistent, and so we did..
Long story short (Jesse is fine with this info being shared because we feel God is using our story to help others) - the chiropractor discovered that Jesse's tailbone was not just curved under, but "way" under and affecting the prostrate. This provides an explanation for "shrinking prostrate" - a condition that his MD and endocrinologist had not ever seen in their practice. Nor actually, had the hormone expert and author, I have consulted with in California.
The chiropractor actually went "in" and manipulated the tailbone and straightened it. Instantly, all the tension in Jesse's neck, shoulders, lower limbs released. The doctor figured this to be a very old injury - likely from Jesse's youth of riding 10 speed bikes - (you may recall...those skinny saddles that always hurt your tailbone).
My hormone specialist/doctor friend in California said that the tailbone injury was likely pinching off the blood supply to prostrate, causing shrinkage. I have read enough books to know that oxygen is carried to the cells by blood, actually, my kids already know this from biology class. A lack of blood supply means oxygen is not being carried to cells. When a cell becomes oxygen depleted (60/40) it becomes diseased and/or cancerous.
Check out the chart....the tailbone is directly related to the health of the prostrate gland!
Check out the chart....the tailbone is directly related to the health of the prostrate gland!
Our hope has been renewed and strengthened with this amazing spinal adjustment. I picture the retired DC with angel wings...it was the wildest thing in chiropractic care we have ever heard of! I have since learned there are a very few in practice who do manual tailbone manipulation.
We are realistic...we don't expect that the adjustment is going to make the diseased cells go away, or drop the high PSA ...but we feel it is a first step in allowing the healing process to begin. God gave me a vision of blood flowing through veins and back into the prostrate. The body works as a WHOLE. Prostrate cancer, or any type of cancer, does not mean that the problem began with just one part of the body.
As well, previously our regular chiropractor, upon doing a muscle test, had noted that Jesse's immune system had a neurological blockage. We revisited the "tailbone adjuster" this past Friday to ensure that the straightened tailbone had remained, and it has to our relief. Even better, the muscle testing from three weeks ago and this past Friday were a night and day difference.
Three weeks ago the doctor tested Jesse and said he had never met anyone as weak as he, both upper and lower limbs. On Friday the same doctor retested, and declared Jesse a walking miracle! Rock solid strong, he declared. This is a clear indicator that the immune system is at work and the nutrients and supplements are doing as they are supposed to do.
Also this chiropractor believes Jesse's lumbar is in perfect working order...which it would not be if there were a bulged disc, or as the MD suggested - a lumbar tumor present. That is not to say he did not have something -as in June he was in a lot of pain in the lower back. I have read that an anti inflammatory diet can heal a bulged disc. Jesse has been on a high dose of Curcumin supplement (3000 mg) a day - which has been known to shrink tumors, so I figured it could do the same for bulged discs. Perhaps it has worked., along with the strict anti-inflammatory and alkaline food choices.

We have two angels in this story... If our friend had not arranged this meeting, this spinal abnormality would have never been discovered. And of course, retired Dr. B himself. These are the first two angels that have been placed in our path on this journey. They are not the last.
The most important lesson in today's post, for male readers, or their advocates to be aware of...is that a shrinking prostrate is NOT to be ignored. It is a symptom that something is not working in the body. The prostrate gland is not on an isolated island...it is connected - with blood vessels, bones, nerves and more. I would have never imagined a spinal deformity to be the cause...but it makes complete sense.
Our bodies are an intricate network and divine and wondrous creation. It works together...and if something is amiss, there is a reason. You may only learn about the cause for your own illness by digging into your past medical history...or like us, have a divine encounter with one of God's healing vessels walking this earth.
May you trust in His healing presence and works on your behalf,
Rita

Cancer? Now what? We are not in a panic...
If you happen upon this blog, you may be searching as one who has been affected by cancer. No matter where you are on the path to wellness, it is our prayer that you will find hope and encouragement on your journey.
You may be a family member or friend, simply checking in to see how we are doing Our choices may seem foreign to you. We don't expect you to understand or embrace a holistic approach to wellness, but we do ask for your support and prayer.
Who we are ...husband and wife, Rita and Jesse. Rita is the writer, and the one who will most likely provide reports, share what we learn with others. We are facing what is likely prostrate cancer, which has already metasticized to bone. It is not the prostrate cancer that scared us, but the possible cancer in the bone. Jesse has released the fear, and given it to God who is big enough to handle such things, to allow healing to enter in.
Jesse is a CAD draftsman, spiritual leader of our household, and is a 1 on 1 Care minister at our church. Rita is an independent Arbonne consultant and offers pure and safe holistic wellness products to families who are concerned about what they put on and in their bodies. She has been a holistic health advocate since 2010, has studied, and has presented wellness workshops, includnig cancer prevention numerous times. It is with great thanks that we feel prepared for such a time as this - as many are in a fog when they receive such news. We have two children, who are great joys in our lives. We have built our home on a solid foundation of believing that Christ died on the cross to save each of us, and strive to serve others as Christ showed us.
It is our hope Jesse will share more about how he is feeling, and use this blog as a way to journal his path towards wellness. And WELLNESS is what we DO EXPECT. We have envisioned it. We trust it will come. We are focusing on positive, rather than the negative thoughts that fuel sickness.
WHAT ARE WE DEALING WITH?
Technically, we don't know. What we do know is that the MDs are extremely concerned, have given doomsday reports (this is the delivery style we experienced), and are definitely glass half empty types of people. If we did not have a strong faith to hold us up we would have probably crumbled by now, and rushed into further damaging diagnostics or surgery as urged. This is not to say that we have not shed tears...we most definitely have.
Confirmed diagnosis? No, a biopsy has not been performed. Biopsies are not the most safe method of determining cancer. You have the right to not feel the same as we do on this. According to the John Wayne Cancer Institute, there is a 50% chance that as the needle is extracted, if cancer is on that needle it can spread to other areas. We realize our friends don't understand why we have not rushed to get a biopsy - this is one reason, AnD there are other options. But who tells you about that?
We have learned about other, non-invasive methods to determine cancer, and track one's progress in fighting it as well. This is what we are opting for in lieu of a biopsy. You can read more about this and more accurate testing available for prostrate cancer at Cancer Tutor , which has been the greatest help in our 3 week journey thus far.
- HCG test is what we are opting for - its inexpensive as an out of pocket expense
- Red Drop test - it will be interesting to see if insurance will cover this
For now...we are approaching each day as though Jesse has cancer. Reviewing past exam notes, it is highly likely that this cancer, or whatever it is, has been brewing since 2012. Cancer never happens overnight... I have pieced together bits of the puzzle that paint a pretty realistic scenario of how this has come about. What we do know is that something is wrong, and no matter what it is - we want it gone and the body healed.
You can interpret this as you wish....on July 18 we did receive this summary from a pulmonary specialist (which is interesting in of itself as to why we were sent to see him and all that followed)....
The PSA did reveal an extremely HIGH number...so high that it seems few have never heard such a high number. That in itself is an indicator that it may not be accurate. We do know that Jesse was a on a male hormone (and more of his case history will be shared so that others will become aware, and perhaps we can help prevent this same health risk for others), and I have learned that this male hormone can attribute to a very high PSA. At this time we are waiting for a 2nd PSA to come back, which I requested, to be done by a lab that I have come to trust for my Arbonne clients - ZRT labs.
I also requested a full male comprehensive profile, as Jesse's estrogen levels have never been checked. Two years ago, in my mind, my gut instinct was that Jesse's estradiol levels needed to be checked in proportion to progesterone. I will go into this in more detail in another post - it is VERY important information for men to know...it is unlikely your MDs will be knowledgeable of this, unless they have studied this on their own outside the clinical setting.
God has put many angels along our path since this journey began...one that has been a major game changer that has put us on the path towards healing. We have no doubt that the heavens have opened up the path towards healing in more ways than one.
Trusting in His healing power,
Rita

You can interpret this as you wish....on July 18 we did receive this summary from a pulmonary specialist (which is interesting in of itself as to why we were sent to see him and all that followed)....
Summary: The PET scans
shows that you have several lymph nodes in your chest and abdomen that are
using a high amount of sugar. Also, there are several bones (back bones, hip
bones, leg bone-femur) that are using a high amount of sugar. These areas are
concerning of cancer. There are possible other explanations such as infection
for high sugar usage.
The first step is to
check PSA to test for prostrate cancer.
If the PSA is
abnormally high then you should meet with urologist who may perform a prostrate
biopsy.
If PSA is normal next step would be biopsy of lymph node or
bone….
The PSA did reveal an extremely HIGH number...so high that it seems few have never heard such a high number. That in itself is an indicator that it may not be accurate. We do know that Jesse was a on a male hormone (and more of his case history will be shared so that others will become aware, and perhaps we can help prevent this same health risk for others), and I have learned that this male hormone can attribute to a very high PSA.
