The Dangers of Vitamin D Deficiency
Vitamin D Deficiency. While you can get vitamin D through food or supplements, exposure to the sun is most people’s main source of vitamin D. It used to be thought that vitamin D’s primary impact was confined to the skeleton. Everyone knew that getting enough vitamin D was important for preventing rickets and other bone diseases,…
September is Thyroid Cancer Awareness Month
September is Thyroid Cancer. This month is Thyroid Cancer Awareness Month, a time to educate the public about the most common type of endocrine cancer. Also called “thyroid carcinoma,” thyroid cancer is a malignant tumor or growth that originates within the thyroid gland. That’s the official definition—true, but very impersonal. To me, though, thyroid cancer…
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. I first started doing Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy during the month that I spent at the Hope 4 Cancer Institute in Mexico. This therapy was part of my daily regimen while I was there, and I often looked forward to it as one of my favorite parts of the day. When I came…

My Second Major Decision / My Cancer Treatment
My Cancer Treatment After I was diagnosed with papillary thyroid carcinoma (cancer), everyone around me pushed hard to get me to start the standard treatment. “You need surgery!” they would say. “You need radiation!

Sono-Dynamic Therapy
Sono-Dynamic Therapy. Back when I began my healing journey, Sono-Dynamic Therapy was one of the first therapies that I did. In fact, I did this therapy every day for about 1-1/2 years before my doctor recommended that I take a break from it. Recently my doctor recommended that I start doing it again for maintenance,…
Coffee Enemas
Coffee Enemas. When I look at all of the therapies that I do and have done, I realize that when you’re dealing with a cancer diagnosis you’re willing to do things that you might not have been willing to try under other circumstances. I think coffee enemas go into this category! Many practitioners of alternative…
