Cancer: where the rubber meets the road

This article is by a person with cancer who has vital information to share, based on very unexpected successes with a raw food diet.

Hello! I am Barbara Ellingson, alive and kicking, on planet earth, 2008!

BRIEF BACKGROUND OF MY CANCER STORY:
***In 1999 my husband Jim and I both contacted the same nutritionist, having heard of him on the same day, independently. His name is Aajonus Vonderplanitz, Phd. Nutrition.
***Both of us had great benefits from his diet I completely regained my composure, having recovered from extreme dizziness, disorientation, chronic insomnia and weakness. I was able to create and hold a fairly stressful job again. We went mostly off the recommended plan after a year, mainly because of convenience.
***A few years later my husband contacted this nutritionist again, to help with severe gout. The nutritionist helped him once again after all else seemed to fail and after his having gone to a variety of M.D's and alte
ative practitioners, and all we'd had to show for it was a kitchen counter-full of medicines and nutritional supplements and big expenses!
***My husband formed a joint venture partnership with that nutritionist to set up a website mainly to sell the nutritionist's books and subscriptions to his news letters.
****I was still off the diet plan, and—I thought—in reasonably good health.
****In 2006 (Labor Day weekend) I was diagnosed at a local hospital with advanced spinal cancer. The diagnosis was based on an MRI they'd just done.

WHAT NOW?????
****A biopsy was recommended to see the source of which organ(s) the cancer came from, and Radiation therapy was recommended to start immediately, with other treatment(s) to follow.
****Of course I called this same nutritionist immediately, and I got started on his recommended diet and herbs (www.wewant2live.com). I could tell within a week that I was no longer being consumed—from the inside. The diet was that calming, even before I started the herbs.

HERE'S WHERE THE RUBBER MET THE ROAD
Rubber: one case of diagnosed and verified advanced spinal cancer—mine! The prospects were bleak—and I know because I got to see the MRI on the doctor's lap-top computer. The MRI was the picture worth 1000 words. It explained why I'd ended up immobile, in the hospital, to begin with. (By the way, I am now walking around.)
Road: a nutritionist who had helped us before, but who had unusual concepts about recovering from cancer and other illnesses, that didn't always include standard medical attention and treatment; in fact he was mostly not in favor of medical treatment—having been in my position himself, earlier. He also was not aligned with the usual nutritional informatio
I had been accustomed to hearing. For example, I eat red meat and other raw sources of protein. I drink no water except what I get in 1-2 quarts of freshly juiced veggies, an occasional glass of raw milk, and one fruit smoothie per day. I take no vitamin or mineral supplements of any kind. I take the herbs that my nutritionist recommended in addition to the diet as a more aggressive treatment, so that I would not end up paralyzed due to spinal nerve damage.

Rubber + Road: here I am still alive and doing well (all things considered) a year and 9 months after diagnosis, with what the hospital doctors (in the absence of a biopsy) believe is most likely multiple myeloma, and having chosen to receive no medical treatment: that is, no surgery, no radiation, no chemotherapy. The latest MRI and blood tests show essentially no progress of the disease.

WHAT WOULD BE REQUIRED OF YOU?

Some willingness to think outside the box (or perhaps a similar level of desperation as that which I faced about a year and a half ago).

Some willingness to use the information perhaps in addition to what you have going.

A willingness to click on the 2 links below, and read the information.

Nothing else.

WHAT DO YOU STAND TO GET FROM THIS?

Information that might help you or someone you know or care about.
A diet plan that is balanced, sensible, calming, and consisting of basic ingredients that are contained in real food!

Do you think that diet cannot make a difference, or that whatever regimen you are on is sufficient? Here is where I would challenge you to look at more information—would this information increase someone's chances? What could you lose? Reading other testimonials on the website could help with this. I am not alone in my adventure; in fact I have personally met some of the others!

WHAT DO I STAND TO GET FROM THIS?
I get to give information and possibly help to others in my situation.
Partial financial support should you choose to purchase anything.
Possible feedback from readers.
And I definitely get a broader team!

HAVING A TEAM, taking action and being a winner?
Getting more time to pursue activities meantime that I am passionate about?
Having what I believe to be a more gentle treatment?
Having hope of a complete cure down the road?
Living a life in good health?
