Success Story Lymphoma Cancer of the Spleen – Phyllis
Thompson
I have had many successful experiences using products from
Nature’s Sunshine. One was doing weekly
kidney cleanses for six months and eliminating painful symptoms of Rheumatoid
Arthritis.
Another experience, many years ago, I awoke about 5 am with
painful pounding pain in my kidney. I
could barely walk; the pain was so bad.
I made it to the bottle of Silver Guard and took several gulps. At 7 am I repeated the process. It was
somewhere between 2 Tbsp and 2 oz. I’m not sure. By 9 am, I was in the office and functioning
without pain. I continued taking about 2
Tbsp. morning and evening another few weeks before discontinuing.
I was bothered by reoccurring skin cancers, Basal cell,
Squamous cell, Melanomas and I finally went for a photographer. It showed the source of the cancer in my
front tooth. Donna had spoken to me
repeatedly on root canals and I had refused to listen. I didn’t want to be without my front
tooth. But that day, I left the
naturopath’s office and went straight to my dentist and persuaded him to pull
the tooth. A kindly denturist quickly
made up an upper plate with a false tooth.
This last bout has been with Lymphoma and cancer of the
spleen. I thought I was doing everything
I should, but I had gotten away from my TAFYH way of thinking from the course I
took many, many years ago. I accepted
that gluten free meant it was safe for me to eat. I was eating grains, way too much fruit and
not enough vegetables. Because my white
blood count was so low (1.4), I was eating lots of red beets almost daily. I wasn’t eating potatoes, but I was eating
rice with every meal. I didn’t recognize
that as a grain. I thought maple syrup
and honey were safe alternatives to sugar.
The doctors agreed that for my white blood cells to go from
4.0 (normal) to 1.4 was probably caused by an environment incident. I knew exactly what they were talking
about. We are in the process of remodeling
a house build in 1960. I developed
horrendous painful raw rashes on my body but more so on my legs from the mold
that was in the bathroom area. This did
not affect my white blood cells and the rash stopped coming back when the
drywall was replaced and I was able to use Pau D’Arco. Aloe Vera Gel, and
Frankincense to clear it up. However,
when my husband took the wall out between the kitchen and utility room, the
ceiling came down. This filled the room
with a goodly portion of asbestos insulation.
Without gloves or mask, I cleaned it up, and then to compound the issue,
I used a heat gun and putty knife to lift all the asbestos tiles on the floor –
again – no mask – and lots of times without gloves. STUPID!!
The original diagnosis was a type of Leukemia. A family doctor explained that I should wear
mask and gloves when out in public.
Apparently he felt that with such a low white blood cell count, if I
picked up any kind of cold, flu or infection, I would not be able to fight it
off, giving me the impression that if I got any of these ailments, I would
die. Several months after a ultrasound
and a very painful bone marrow biopsy, I was sent to Dr. Delorme, a
cytologist/oncologist in Kelowna. His
diagnosis: – Lymphoma, cancer of the spleen.
My spleen measured 13.7 cm. He was
supportive of the program I was on (even though he wasn’t interested in detail)
and surprised that a doctor would tell me I had to wear mask and gloves when
out in public. He advised to definitely
wash my hands frequently but nothing more.
He was also concerned that the family doctor had advised NOT exercising
and quitting the gym. His orders were
to get back to the gym. I really didn’t
have the stamina to go back to the gym and because a new TAFYH class was
starting the same time as my gym class, I opted to take TAFYH first.
In my journal at the beginning of TAFYH, I wrote comments
like, “I feel so rotten.” “I feel like crap.”
“I can barely do yoga stretches for 10 minutes without everything
hurting”. “I coughed all night and have
such a rotten cold.” “I am barely
getting up in time for TAFYH and I find it hard to understand what we are
supposed to be doing.”
What a relief when I finally learned....” There is no cure
for the common cold.... the cold is the cure”.
Several weeks later when all the cold symptoms abated, my energy started
coming back. My ability to concentrate
improved. I discovered that we were
eating so many foods that were not recommended for someone wanting to regain
their health. My husband who was
diagnosed with liver cancer decided to jump into the program with me. Support from a Tag Team was a great
idea. I really became accountable.
I was nearing completion for TAFYH when I went for another
blood test and ultrasound. White blood
cells are on the upswing - 2.6 and my spleen in 12.5cm. (Normal 12 cm.) My red blood cells and all the other readings
were within the normal range. The
pathologist wrote under Impression: “Interval decrease in the size of the
spleen, now measuring within normal limits.”
I believe the cancer in my spleen is gone!
My BSQ has dropped from 51 to 18. My weight dropped from 133.4 to 125.2 (my
love handles are gone). My body temp did
manage to get up to 37 plus a few times but its back to 36.2. It started at 35.6. I am back at the gym and loving it. I’ve learned how to plan nutritious menus and
find recipes using healing foods.
My Vision is becoming a reality. I am living with an attitude of
gratitude. I am enjoying life and my
skeleton system has definitely been strengthened. I can walk to town with vigor (when the wind
isn’t blowing). I am enjoying being able
to focus on important facts and my recall has improved considerably. I am no longer fearful when sharing my
knowledge of Nature’s Sunshine’s nutritional products and their healing powers.
I am back at the gym and enjoying the wonderful support team
I have there. My muscles are regaining
their strength. I have a healthy skin
color and it will continue to as I spend more time outdoors.
My vision is for a wonderfully abundant garden and I’ve
started ordering my seeds for this year from the seed catalogue. I am going to be able to have a garden this
year!
I am connecting with family around the world thanks to
technology and I am able to help so many people with their family
research. I can concentrate and look for
hidden clues.
Construction on the house is nearing completion, just a few
cupboards to go and I do have the energy to keep on task. My vision has become a reality in just 2
short months.
So my Vision now is a new bucket list. I want to climb a mountain, do more
travelling, further my education and be an example to others.
