For Leora’s Anniversary…April 26th…Hair ‘n’ Nail-athon

April 21, 2007 on 7:32 pm | In LMS | No Comments
 
Hi everybody! 

As many of you know, Leora’s 4th anniversary is Thursday, and my plans for the Rock Paper Scissors Tournament had to be sidelined due to me being sick for the better part of the last month.
Soooo…..
I have sent this around to many salons in my area, and am in the
process of an email to send to my list to hold a Hair ‘n’ Nail-athon on Thursday.
Basically, the hair or nail salon pledges a percentage or dollar amount for each product, customer and procedure for that day.

So I will pass this onto you all if you are intested in passing it on
to whoever cuts your hair, does your nails, or any hair & nail people you know…

There are downloadable forms if you want to print a paper flyer, or
they can just go to the website to register their salon – it’s all
clickable, plus, at the end of the business day they can simply go to
the donation page to make good on their pledge.

Here is the link- www.myshininglight.com/HairnNailAthon

Of course, there is a link on the front page at www.LeorasLegacy.com

Let me know if anyone is interested, and please send this post to your email lists!!!

Oh yeah – please wear PURPLE on her anniversary for LMS, and PINK on her birthday for HER…

GOOD FOR AWARENESS IF THIS IS COUNTRY / WORLDWIDE!

Love, Jeri

Do Alternative Cancer Treatments Really Work?


by Tanya Harter Pierce, MA, MFCC

Despite the expenditure of billions of dollars, mainstream medicine’s track record for curing cancer is unfortunately dismal. Too many people have watched loved ones die miserably after suffering the terrible side effects of chemotherapy and other toxic conventional treatments, and more and more are choosing alternative methods instead.   

Sydney’s mom was one such person. Sydney was a bright little girl just two years old when she was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. After a year of chemotherapy, Sydney was in remission and her parents and doctors hoped the cancer would not come back. But it did come back, and at age four Sydney’s doctors were recommending a bone marrow transplant as her only hope. However, this procedure offered a mere 5-10% chance of cure and the treatment could potentially cause severe damage to her body (or even kill her). Instead, Sydney’s mom decided to decline the conventional treatment and chose an alternative approach that was safe and non-toxic. Within just a few months, there was no sign of leukemia in little Sydney.  She is currently nine years old and still cancer-free. Sydney’s story is not uncommon as advances in alternative medicine continue to outpace conventional allopathic medicine for the treatment of chronic metabolic diseases.

So what do we mean by “alternative cancer treatments?” Any health treatment is considered alternative if it has not yet been approved by the FDA and has not yet been accepted by mainstream medicine. But many “alternatives” are scientifically based and effective treatments nevertheless.  The approach administered to Sydney is an easy-to-use liquid formula called Protocel.  This formula was developed by an American chemist who discovered a way to interfere with how cancer cells produce energy for themselves.  The approach is supported by research done by the Nobel Prize-winning scientist Otto Warburg, who proved that cancer cells primarily use anaerobic cell respiration. Protocel interferes with that type of cell respiration just enough to make anaerobic cells (cancer cells) fall apart.

The Protocel formula has been used by thousands of people to achieve recoveries from breast, prostate, lung, brain, colon, and virtually all other types of cancer. A side benefit is that many other illnesses–such as multiple sclerosis, viral infections, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn’s Disease also involve anaerobic cells.  Thus, Protocel has been used to help people with these conditions as well. Typical examples include a woman who used Protocel to cure herself of metastasized bladder cancer, only to find that all signs of her Hepatitis C infection had disappeared.  A man who saw his wife cure herself of metastasized vaginal wall cancer decided to use Protocel himself preventively, and within two weeks a psoriasis/fungal type infection that he’d had on his fingers for ten years completely cleared up.

Another powerful alternative cancer approach based on Dr. Warburg’s anaerobic principle of cancer cells is called Cesium High pH Therapy. This was developed by an American physicist named Dr. Aubrey Keith Brewer who discovered that cancer cells readily take in the mineral cesium, which then alkalizes the cancer cells to death from the inside.

Following are two real-life cases of people who chose to use cesium. A man suffering from advanced stomach cancer was told by his oncologist that his cancer was not responding to chemotherapy. His medical team said that the only thing they had left to offer him was total surgical removal of his stomach, after which they would attach his upper intestine to his esophagus. This man was not pleased with the option of trying to live without a stomach, so he declined the surgery. His wife found out about cesium and he used that instead for a complete recovery. He continues to remain cancer-free years later.

A woman with metastasized ovarian cancer was told by her doctor that chemotherapy would never get rid of all her cancer; it could only hope to control it.  As she saw her cancer gradually spreading, she finally stopped the ineffective chemotherapy and through the use of cesium became cancer-free as well.

Protocel and Cesium High pH Therapy are just two of many effective alternative methods.  In fact, my book Outsmart Your Cancer: Alternative Non-Toxic Treatments That Work  presents 12 alternative cancer treatment methods that are all backed by sound scientific documentation and impressive track records. While no approach is a “Magic Bullet” that will cure everybody, when used correctly alternative methods for cancer often provide better overall chances for long-term cure than chemotherapy or radiation.

As already mentioned, an important difference between alternative and conventional cancer treatments is that alternative methods are not officially approved by the FDA and are not prescribed by mainstream medicine.  This means you won’t hear about them from your oncologist and your health insurance company won’t reimburse you if you choose to use one. So it is left to you to educate yourself as to your true options. Another important difference is that alternative methods are always non-toxic, whereas conventional methods are virtually always toxic.

It’s the non-toxic aspect of alternative cancer treatments that is the key to why alternative methods are more effective at achieving long-term cures in many cases.  This is because a non-toxic method can be used 24/7, for as many weeks, months, or even years as it takes to get rid of all of one’s cancer. Being non-toxic, it does not hurt a person’s healthy cells or immune system, and thus allows for continual use in cooperation with the body’s own healing process.

Both chemo and radiation, on the other hand, are so toxic and so damaging to the body’s immune system they do NOT allow for continual use.  In fact, using chemo or radiation every day for months would kill the patient. So breaks in the treatment are necessary to allow the patient to recover from the treatment–and these breaks allow the cancer to recover and grow back, too! Often, the cancer grows back even more virulently because the immune system is so weakened.  This explains the vicious cycle in conventional medicine of remission and recurrence until the patient dies.

It is tragic to hear heart-breaking stories of people who bravely suffered the side effects of toxic chemotherapy or radiation only to find their cancer has spread even more extensively throughout their body. Once they find an effective alternative approach, they frequently say, “If I had known about alternative methods, I never would have done the chemo and radiation in the first place.” With 1 in 3 Americans likely to develop cancer at some point in their lifetime, and our medical system turning its back on alternative medicine, it is essential and heartening to know there are non-toxic options out there that really can work!

Crystal Awareness Bracelet has to be seen to be believed
  

I have to let everyone know I received two Swarovski Crystal LMS
Awareness bracelets yesterday from a lovely lady named Elycia Norton.
She has a company called Vael Designs, and she makes gorgeous
jewelry – awareness bracelets and LOTS of other stuff too.
She has generously committed to giving part of the profits for the
$25 LMS bracelets to LMS research.
She is such a lovely woman to deal with, and is really interested in
helping us in our plight.

The following is the email I sent her after receiving the bracelets
she sent me at no charge – one for me, and one to raffle off. I was
so touched I just had to share…

PLEASE visit her site, and show her some love, then pass her site
around.
http://www.vaeldesigns.com/products/leiomyosarcoma-cancer-awareness-bracelet-…
Thanks as always for your support!
Love, Jeri

My email to Elycia-
“Elycia

I am choked up as I write this. I cannot tell you the special meaning
that the Leiomyosarcoma Awareness bracelet holds for me and so many
others.

When I got the mail today, I saw the return label on the envelope. I
stopped in the front yard and tore open the package!

I am not exaggerating when I say that the picture does not do justice
to the real deal. The bracelet is so dainty, and so lovely. The
drawstring pouch is a nice touch too. Even your business cards are
high quality!

I have enjoyed so much the communication we have had in the creation
of this bracelet. There are so many unique jewelry designers out
there, and I have spoken with many of them over the last few months.
You are the only one I did not feel like was just jumping on the
Cancer Awareness bandwagon. Your offer to donate part of the proceeds
to research is very generous. I feel you truly care about our cause.

I look so forward to a long business relationship, and consider you a
friend to all LMS fighters

I WILL WEAR MY BRACELET PROUDLY!

Deepest and warmest thanks, Jeri

Angry Guy sez…

************************************************************

Hi everybody

It has become eerily quiet on the LMS homefront since I put up the donation page a couple of days ago…

Many, MANY people have been telling me for so long, “Please let me know what I can do to help!”, but suddenly everyone has disappeared!

I think, if many of you are like me, maybe you cannot afford to make a large donation.

PLEASE DON’T LET THAT STOP YOU!

Understand that a simple five, ten or twenty dollar donation is HUGE when many people do it. It doesn’t have to be anything bank-breaking.

Every little bit helps.

Please see yesterday’s blog to better understand our need for private donations. No one else is going to help us find a cure.

So PLEASE, you asked what you can do to help. I am telling you what we need.

We need you to get out your check card or credit card, and go to
www.LeorasLegacy.com. Please make a donation today!

Thank you in advance for your generosity

Love always, Jeri

FYI to anyone who loves someone with cancer

April 3, 2007 on 5:06 pm | In LMS | No Comments
Hello my friends 

Yesterday I sent out the donation announcement. Today, this drives it all home for me. It is clearly up to us as individuals to find a cure.
I do not usually talk politics, but this is a MUST-READ
FYI to anyone who loves someone with cancer-

Our fearless leader, George DUBYA Bush partially funded his war by doing the following- 

“In December 2005, President Bush signed a bill that provided $31 million less for cancer research than the year before, according to the American Association for Cancer Research. This was the first hard cut since the passage of the National Cancer Act in 1971. More recently, the president announced his proposed budget for fiscal year 2007 – it slashes an additional $40 million from the already reduced 2006 funding level.”

Even I, with my limited math skills, can add up the $71,000,000 taken from cancer research.

REMINDER- This is why we have to get our own funding, and remember, SARCOMAS account for about 1% of all cancers. Leiomyosarcoma accounts for about 7% of all SARCOMAS.

NOW YOU DO THE MATH. PLEASE MAKE A DONATION TODAY.

I apologize in advance to anyone I am about to offend, but I am furious about this news.
So my daughter’s dead…at least we killed a bunch of people in some foreign country.

Leora’s Legacy Donation page is active!! PLEASE PASS IT ON!

April 2, 2007 on 3:53 pm | In LMS | No Comments
I can’t believe it!

Last Monday, I finished working on the Donations page of the website, then I was sick with a fever the rest of the week. I didn’t have a chance to let anyone know about this page yet, but Tuesday morning I had notification of several donations already, and on through the rest of the week! I do not think I will ever stop being amazed by peoples’ generosity.

So on that note, here is the official announcement that the Donation page is active!!

You can visit the page at www.LeorasLegacy.com and click on ‘Donations’ on the menu, or go straight to the page at www.myshininglight.com/Donations.

We use PayPal to collect donations.  For those of you who are not familiar with PayPal, they are the most trusted and secure collection site on the web. When you pay in this manner, all of your information is secure, in fact, we never see your credit card info. You do not need to have a PayPal account in order to donate.

All the information is available on our site, so everyone knows where donations go, and what they are used for. At this point, we are working on being incorporated, so we may apply for non-profit status, and of course, our first fund raiser is April 26th. The flyer for the 1st Annual Rock Paper Scissors Tournament will be coming shortly, so check your email!

Please friends, we need your help to raise awareness for much needed Leiomyosarcoma research, so that we may see a cure. Even better treatments in the near future would at least help some of those suffering to attain remission, which is very difficult to achieve.

And remember…

NO donation is too small, and every little bit helps.

Please make your donation today, and pass this on to everyone you know. Perhaps your employer and/or coworkers would be interested in making or matching a donation so we can begin to heal those who are afflicted, as well as those who are affected.

If you cannot make a donation, please sign our petition to have April 26th declared National Leiomyosarcoma Awareness Day. www.petitiononline.com/NLMSDay/petition

Thank you for your help.

Love, Jeri
