I am so very sorry that it has taken me so long to reply to your letter.

Thank you for the letter you sent, although it is long and trying you can get through the treatment! Kayla finished May 11th, 2010 and we are relishing life. Use my webpages to get approvals from the doctors. This is why this was set up this way. If you have medical information to support your request they usually give the okay. Without these they will say no.

Cancer can be confusing and overwhelming. Just do the best that you can with good food choices and that would be a major step in the right direction. If you want to address a specific problem look on my site for medical references to help you. If you do not find what you need on the site then email me and I will try to help you.

Sincerely,
Debbie

The web-pages on my site are designed to help a person get doctor approval. Just print out the page of interest or specific concern and bring it to your doctor. Because of the quoted medical studies your doctor will (or should) feel safer in allowing you to use the supplements on that page. They want to know that what they approve of is safe for the patient while on chemo. Although most supplements are safe there is always the chance of an allergic reaction. If you get approval for anything the safest way to go about it is to give the lowest possible dose then watch if there is a reaction.

Your son is the perfect age to have gotten leukemia. The survival rates are at their highest when they are young. Although this is a tough road for a parent to travel, you will get through this with your son and be stronger for all you have been through. Believe it or not, we were enriched by our cancer experience. I hope the same happens with you and yours. All the best to you. Stay positive, know that your son is going to be perfect and say it everyday. We did the positive thinking chant every day and it helped us a lot!
