Yesterday I met Brett. He was refused by Sloan-Kettering, Mayo, MD Anderson in TX and a few other places. He came here and has improved since Jan 6th. He looks great-very inspirational!

Today I met Dr. Tony, head honcho here. Great guy. He likes the progress-just need to work on blood sugar. 

I do a lot of therapies every day. One is the LED pads. I put one on the lower back and one around the lower abdomen and let them work for 30 min..

My supper is here, so that's all for now. Written Tuesday.

I've been on a liquid diet for the weekend. My favorites are blueberry soup & avocado soup. Yesterday for lunch Dwight had salmon, asparagus, salad & a different soup than mine. I had avocado soup. A big juicy hamburger with mustard & onion sounds really good about now! :)

Treatments are going well. The IVs just drip, but the other treatments are great. My favorite is the heat from radio frequency. I haven't heard any music though! A person administers it holding a wand/paddle and goes around a certain area. It feels heavenly! Other treatments are great too though.

The day after the driving rain, the roofing guys returned for patchwork. We haven't had any more hard rain, but I hope it's fixed.

Yesterday Dwight abandoned me to watch the March Madness selection Sunday in the common area. We don't get those types of channels in the room. In the room, we've been watching The Virginian, Pawn Stars or whatever is on the History channel or National Geographic channel. We don't watch it a lot, but it's nice to have something available.

Have a funtastic day! Love you all!

Treatments started today. There is too much to explain with one-fingered typing. You can see dscript ions here: hope4cancer.com

Pnc I get 2 x day, I had heat therapy by radio waves (Indiba), I have a 24 hr catheter checking  for infection, I had an ultrasound that was apparently ok, and now PMF that helps other treatments be more effective-it also helps the muscles in n my thighs relax & stop twitching.

The staff here is really nice.

We had a driving rain today that sprinkled on my hand from the skylight! They're ready to move be my bed over if it happens again.

Good night!

We made it! It was a permit we needed to get, not a visa. If you're here more than a week, you need one.

Everyone, including Jesus, our driver, has been VERY accommodating. When we got here, I was wheelchaired up ramps, & up and down a few stairs-all smoothly done with no big bumps! Amazing!

I met my nurse, Luce, this afternoon, & she's very nice. She did a skin test to check for a reaction to one of the treatments they wan to use.

For lunch, I had some avocado soup, a few bites of salad, some warm veggies with sugar peas, some green stuff, red pepper-I let Dwight eat the sweet potato. He had his own tray too.

I haven't slept well for about a week due to oozing stinging. I hope the switch to more alkaline foods will help. Maybe the dr can help too.

I can't wait to see what's for supper. Meals are 8 AM, 1 PM and 6 PM.

Hi to all!
I'm embarking on another journey of alternative treatments in Tijuana. We drove the motor home to a gorgeous KOA south of San Diego. We'll get picked up tomorrow by a clinic van from the KOAstorage lot.

I learned about this place (see hope4cancer.com) from Ty Bollinger's Truth about Cancer Global Quest documentary series. The Truth about Cancer is a great resource site for anyone who's interested.

Dwight & I are staying in one of their rooms there for 3 weeks. We are paying room & board for both of us and my 7-day/week treatments.

Have a great day!
