Let There Be Light

Day 14 in Mexico:   I have found hope! I have found the light! The Mexican stage of my journey has taken me to the Sanoviv Medical Clinic in Baja California, Mexico. After the initial 4 day assessment, I have enrolled in the 3 week cancer support program.   The first four days of my stay involved a battery of medical tests which included everything from ultra sounds to blood tests to fitness tests. I may know more about my body than I ever wanted to know. :) 

In the cancer support program,I  have been put on a regime of supplements and have had a blood test
sent to Greece to have my blood fully analyzed.    I spend about 3 hours a day sitting in an IV chair getting liquid supplements. I also have regional hyperthermia on my left triceps area. Twice a week I am put into a full body hyperthermia bed where I sweat more than I thought was humanly possible. Friday, I got up to 38.9 C.  And probably the most bizarre part of this is the  hyperbaric chamber.  It is like being in a small submarine.  After two times in the hyperbaric chamber, I think that my scars are disappearing!  Wow!  There are also appointments with chiropractors, homeopaths, psychologists etc.  It is the total package. 

Oh and yes!  I do feel very safe here.  It is like staying in a beautiful resort that is right on the ocean.  The food here is absolutely outstanding!  At night I fall to sleep listening to the ocean waves and during the day at the top of each hour church bells ring.  I appreciate the Christian atmosphere and we are surrounded by beauty.   It is a wonderful place to relax and get well. The staff and patients here are amazing.  In fact, I am in awe of the strength, courage, support and hope that I see in patients with stage 4 cancer.  

I am so blessed!  My sister was here for the assessment and then my cousin, Kathy, came and will stayed with me until March 11. Having family here for a bit helped me get into the routine and feel comfortable with my treatments.   I am now on my own.  However, with my hope restored, I have once again been able to focus on getting healthy.When I arrived here I was a nervous wreck.  I am now OK and am focusing on health and healing.  There is no room in my heart for fear. There is only room for love, hope and joy.  All is well!

Thank you for your support in my journey.  God Bless!
