During these days and weeks, several friends and family members would spark ideas for me to research over the internet. Sometimes, I was referred to a book. All were gratefully accepted. I did look into all that time allowed.
My friend, Maureen, told me of a couple of strategies she employed to keep a positive, prayerful outlook. One was to study and research all you can, then compose a prayer to God. In the latter, you are specific as to what you’d like to see happen. You start at the top. In her case, for instance, she wanted the lump removed but refused radiation. After she’d prayed devoutly and sincerely to Heavenly Father about this hoped-for result and upon receiving a positive feeling that He approved, she then built the rest of the outline for her Health Recovery Plan. She asked herself mainly questions about: How do I achieve the result I’ve prayed for? Where do I obtain the necessary products?
Another idea Maureen had was to visit her chiropractor doctor who also hypnotizes people for a variety of reasons. He made her a cd that she listens to each morning and night. The idea behind this is that the mind is an integral part of becoming well and to get your mind focused on fighting the cancer. Your mind has an equal responsibility along with your body and spirit prepared for the fight. I was so taken with this idea; I immediately made an appointment for my own cd.
A church friend alerted us to the fact that there is more than one type of radiation therapy. There’s two types of external radiation: one that covers the whole area and one that uses more sophisticated equipment to radiate externally just the spot where the tumor was. Then there is internal radiation. In this way, radioactive ‘seeds’ are deposited in the cavity where the tumor was for two weeks and then removed. Gratefully, Rex researched radiation therapy quite thoroughly.
