My Story

I was diagnosed with Stage 3 Her2 positive breast cancer Dec. 27th, 2011. I had three large tumors in my left breast, I also had two positive lymph nodes and so with 5 positive biopsies I started my journey. In the beginning, it was a whirlwind and within a week, I was getting a port and preparing for chemo and the rush to save my life was on. Eight months later (August 20th) after stopping chemo (12 sessions) and not having surgery (a suggested double mastectomy) or radiation like my doctors wanted me to, I sat at Cancer Treatment Centers of America in Illinois and heard the results of a mammogram, MRI, Pet Scan and blood tests were that they could find no cancer in my body. The nurses and doctors were baffled and no one could explain how I could have had this terrible cancer and it was now gone, except for me. I said the Lord healed me through prayers, education, diet and supplements. I started this blog when I was first diagnosed, it is not just about on cancer, but my life and day-to-day thoughts and activities. There are suggested websites, blogs, videos and more here that I believe can benefit those dealing with cancer and those who want to be preventative. My hope is that you and yours will learn, be encouraged and healed. My family prays every night for those with cancer and that you will be not only be healed but that you will live long and happy lives.

Love and Blessings on your journey.

Red Diet Snack Ieas from Beth - Feb 27, 2012

This is for my blood type (A) on a critical (very healthy) part of the diet

Red diet snack ideas:
- celery with raw almond butter (no canola oil - it is toxic)
- Amy's canned soup (make sure no gluten/dairy & check ingredients for blood type & make sure nothing is artificial)
- bag of frozen organic green beans, steam a handful at a time, dip in Hain's Safflower Mayonaise (i add pepper/garlic/onion to make the mayo taste like ranch)
- boiled egg with salt (organic, brown eggs)
- deviled eggs - (organic, brown eggs) mix yolk with Hain Safflower mayo/paprika/salt to taste
- butternut squash (cooked) with unsalted organic butter and cinnamon (tastes like sweet potato pie!)
- turkey wraps with spinach and dijon mustard (i buy the hormel "natural choice" - no nitrites)
- pickled okra (just check ingredients)
- asparagus - sauteed in olive oil with salt

Thanks Beth
LOVE YOU!
