I want to thank everyone for their thoughts, prayers, candles, light and love shown to me and my family during the past few weeks. Every time I signed on there were PM's, visitor messages, lit candles and phone calls from so many of you. I'm thankful and touched by your kindness.

Nannie died peacefully, Thursday morning. We laid her to rest Saturday, wearing a blue dress she made and wore to her 50th wedding Anniversary party. She held 2 Confederate Roses in her hands and we put a picture we all had made at Christmas 3 yrs ago, a 3D pic of Hailey(due 12/7) and a picture of Beau. She hated dogs but she adored Beau. We even included Beau in her obit. Survived by Granddog Beau. Mom's cousin preached the funeral and he compared life to a river. It was a beautiful message.

Again thank you all for your caring, kindness and love.
Blade

I admit I could use some healing good luck thoughts and vibes this week. I have an ultrasound on my left breast for abnormal mammogram. I understand this is fairly common. But my own mother died of this disease 25 yrs ago at the age of 55 so I am concerned and not sleeping very well.

Please keep my buddy Milana in your light,:candle::candle::candle: and her cats Elizabeth and Oscar.:candle::candle:
She loves getting cards, so if you would like to send one to her, please PM me for her address. She loves getting funny raunchy joke kind of cards.

She finally began getting chemotherapy last Friday. After that freak surgical mishap in July, that left her on a ventilator with a trach, she is well enough to start a new fight. She is doing extremely well. Since then, she has not been home, she is now in subacute care at a nursing home.

Latest PetScan diagnosis. Not in her lung after all. Treating Stage 4 adenocarcinoma of the esophagus, treatment to go for 18 weeks of chemo. 3 on , 1 off. Radiation to start this week.

All the chemo and radiation visits are by ambulance to the Doc's. She is frightened, but doing her best.

I haven't posted in a bit. However, I've read your posts here and my prayers continue to be with you. My rituals contain every wish, every sad expression, every joy that each of you post.

A brief update on my sister, Dolo. She continues coughing, but her breathlessness is not constant. She and her husband drove to a well known spa by a lake, Bogen Sea ? (Sea means lake ... what do I know?) Dolo tried to talk with him about returning to the states, where my oldest niece could help care for het when/if she declines further. Apparently, he became upset with the discussion, and she dropped it for the time being. I asked her why he was upset. Dolo said it was because he cannot face what is happening.

My oldest niece is going on the 21st. I'm still waiting for her other kids to let me know ... the deadlines aren't working ... lol ... so, I will gamble and try to book my own return flight, hoping that it doesn't coincide with theirs.

Dolo has agreed to go online and apply for Medicare. Doing so gives her a sense of having some choices.

Thank you all again for your prayers and sending forth the light, the Spirit. I am forever grateful to our Spirit Dancer for her wisdom and compassion in all things, and for starting this thread.

His creatinine is down to 1.7 almost in normal range.
He is taking breaths on his own with the help of the vent and at times fighting the vent!
They had to strap down his left arm because he keeps trying to disconnect the trach. He is getting really agitated with the vent and this is damn good sign!!!

I have a friend of 30+ years that just lost her grown daughter yesterday to a brain tumor(s), She was in a nursing home being cared for because the tumor(s) kept coming back after surgeries. She leaves behind a little girl that my friend will raise. Today I say a prayer and will think about the woman I remember as a child herself. How full of life she was and the woman she grew into. There are no words that can take away my friends pain, so I'll leave a candle burning in her memory.

For so many children....

... for those that go home to no heat and no food

... for those whos parents cannot manage their own lives and addiction, let alone their childrens

... for those who need help, medication, and attention... but are told there is "nothing wrong with them"

... for the ones who slip through the cracks

... for those who by 13 have already become to hard to show they care

Especially this time of year my heart goes out to children, I go to work each day in a place that is supposed to support and nurture children. A school, where they should feel safe, protected, and comfortable. I know it isn't true. They come to us from broken homes, endure bullying and harassment within our walls, and leave us to be beaten and abused. I want to do more... and I will always do all I can. so tonight....

... for the ones I can't reach.

I haven't been in here, in a very long time, but felt it was time to light a candle of Thanks. My entire life has changed in the past few months. I have moved into a home that is my favorite place I have ever lived in, I have a new car that is both and hot and paid for, I am poised to make more money than I have ever seen, and I am respected for the work I do. I have a wonderful family that adores me And I am so grateful, and appreciative for my life. Thank you to the universe for providing for me.

I came in here though to say thank you to some friends, that have loved me, and cared for me, and had faith in me as a human being, supported me when it mattered the most. Do you know how much I love and appreciate you for that??? You saved my heart from fading away, sometimes it does not take a lot to make a difference. I guess that is what this thread is about..... this candle is in THANKS..........

I made my reservation to see her. Leaving January 11. It will be the dead of winter in Switzerland. I've borrowed a heavy coat (hoe do you pack that?), but need gloves. I have Reynaud's, a disease of the circulatory system, worsened by cold. I don't know what kind of gloves to get, have long fingers for women's, and too narrow for men's. Please PM me if you have suggestions. I'm sorry to take up space here with this. I am just so grateful to be able to go that I get stupid.

For Uncle Doug, know that as you move from the world to the next, you've been loved and I am most grateful to have had even the shortest of time with you. When I can dill pickles next summer, I'll remember your tips and tricks and wish you were here to show me just how its supposed to be done.

Today I need to leave a candle and a prayer for R
Whatever she's been battling for over a year is getting worse
Dec 7th she's scheduled for a biopsy in the mediastinum because of an enlarged lymph node
Last Monday she had an ultrasound and nodules were found on her thyroid
Most days she can't even hold food in her long enough for it to digest, but she tries when she can
She's been living on Ensure for the last few months
I'd take her pain in a heartbeat if it was possible
Even though we're no longer a couple, she's my best friend and always has been

So, I leave this candle for R with faith, love, hope and a prayer

Today could be the day I get that telephone call from the pathologist. I could be doing a happy dance or in the getting ready for some other mode. Preparing self. This has been going on since Oct. 20th and as so I has triggered grief for my mom and all she went through. That was an unpleastant surprise! I wish she was alive, had all the technology and medical science at her disposal. I am sure her outcome would have been different. This stuff has caused a fibromyalgia flare and that is just further insult. My breast is the most awesome shades of blue, scarlett, crimson to eggplant colors.

So, on top of everything that is already going on, they find a hiatal hernia
They gave her soft food like jello and liquids but she still feels pain after she eats
She's on an IV drip filled with pain medicine
We hung up because someone came to draw more blood
Keep the prayers coming, they're a big help
She told me she thinks someone has to learn a lesson before she can heal and be healthy again
She asked me to pray for whomever it is to learn their lesson
I can do it, but I'm still going to pray for her to get better

Now they're going to run tests on her gallbladder because they think she has stones
She's at least really happy today because she wrote that to me
Whatever it is that's really going on inside her, all she wants is for it to be curable
She doesn't care how many things they find wrong as long as they fix her

Keep those prayers coming
I told her about our prayer circle
She says to thank all of you
So, much thanks from her and I

For those that live in fear.. of letting those walls down, of loving, of giving, of finding your place in this world, of what comes next, of not being sure if you can stay strong, of making a mistake, of not living up to your potential, of not coming to terms, of saying good-bye, of saying hello, of opening a door, of speaking the truth, of judgement, of closing a door.. of saying you are sorry

There is light.. in the darkness...

Tonight I'd like to say a prayer for Mindy's sister and her family
Yesterday a fire broke out in the attic of the house she and her family shared. Everyone got out and the firefighters got the cats and dogs
As happy as an ending as that is, they lost all their belongings. They are now all cramped together in a very small house with Mindy and her mom.
They're hoping the Salvation Army will help with clothing so the kids can go to school in different outfit every day.

So, I'm leaving a candle along with hope and faith

I was on the phone with R tonight. After more tests today, they found her gallbladder is only functioning at 1%, but they also found an infection in her intestines,so they put her on antibiotics. Because of this, they aren't sure if the stone she has is causing the gallbladder to function like it is or the infection. She still isn't keeping food down, so they are going to keep her at the hospital.

Keep the prayers coming please
Her biopsy surgery is still scheduled for Dec 7th unless something changes between now and then

Got a text from R at 6am. The doc was in and said she'd be staying through the weekend because of the antibiotic IV. Since she's still waiting for the results of yesterdays tests perhaps it's a good thing they're keeping her. She also said a friend of hers has been driving an hour each way everyday to take care of the cats. Her friend stayed the night with them a couple days ago and one of the cats she hasn't seen came out. She wanted to know who the cute black cat was. I'm hoping she likes some of them enough to take a few. I'm a firm believer that everything happens for a reason.

Thank you all for the prayers
We have a wonderful prayer circle here
For me, it's comforting to know, none of have to go through it alone

Keeping a candle burning for those that need it for any reason

Talked to R, she's still in a lot of pain. It's definite her gallbladder must come out but because she still has this infection in her intestines, they are not wanting to do the surgery. I think if they don't do something soon, the biopsy in her mediastinum will not take place on Dec 7th as scheduled. She has way too much going on all at one time and I know she just wants to be well. I just hope the doc decides what's most important and does that first. I feel so bad for her and now with this distance I can't even go visit her or at least be at the house for the kitties. I'm thankful for her friend that's been going over there every day to take care of them.

Please keep the prayers coming, the battle inside her is still at war

Thank you all so very much :)

Quick lil side note, if she can find a chapter of the American Red Cross, they will give hotel vouchers, clothing vouchers, food vouchers, etc. It varies from place to place, but someone from their Disaster Response Team should be able to take care of them. It won't get them completely on their feet, but it's usually a good start...you can PM me if you would like/need any more info!

I will send a prayer up for them as well!

Talked to R for almost an hour and she sounds so much better. I hung up because I knew they'd be bringing her some kind of lunch soon. She's hoping whatever it is stays with her. With that in mind, she's hoping to try solid foods soon. I can't remember the last time she even wanted to try something solid. She's been sucking down Ensure for so long now. Anyhow, this made me smile because she wants to get out of the hospital before she has to return on the 7th for her biopsy.

Always, keeping faith and hope alive along with my prayers

Immune Enhancement for Oncology Patients through Auricular Acupuncture

By Skya Abbate, DOM
With close to 5,000 years of history, Chinese medicine has become adept at recognizing the signs and symptoms of the healthy human organism. It has developed and refined treatment modalities which redirect, cultivate and maintain proper physiological functioning. The essential Chinese treatment plan for patients diagnosed with cancer is to support normal cellular, tissue and organ physiology in the wake of the ravaging (and yet life-saving) techniques that characterize the most common allopathic approaches to cancer: surgery, drug therapies and radiation. Utilizing these standard treatments, augmentation with Chinese medical treatment not only relieves many side effects caused by these therapies but has also been shown clinically to strengthen the patient from the cellular level to the spiritual.
The Chinese treatment modalities most effective in the treatment of the whole person - and likewise the cancer - include internal and external herbal therapy; auricular acupuncture; body acupuncture; moxibustion (a combined heat/herbal therapy); and guided imagery. Patients respond well to these treatments, many of which are simple to learn, easy to administer, and are both cost and clinically effective because they are based on the Chinese world view, which recognizes the patterns of the proper flow of energy (or proper physiology and functioning).


Documented increases in white blood cell production; heightened energy; regrowth of hair; increased libido; decrease in nausea, vomiting, low appetite, abdominal distention, loose stools or constipation; alleviation of depression, anxiety, fear, irritability or other emotional aberrations; quicker wound healing capacity and response to infection; decrease in skin irritation, dry skin and muscular weakness; regulation of weight loss, thirst and pain; improvement in respiration - in short, an overall improvement in the quality of life, both in terms of physical problems and what they affect - these are the primary signs and symptoms with which Chinese medicine produces results. A broad range of systemic clinical manifestations is addressed, but ultimately, through this style of medicine, immunity is enhanced.
Chinese medicine is time-tested, person-oriented, and clinically applicable to the devastating illnesses of our time such as cancer. Although ancient, it parallels innovative techniques being developed to address this difficult disease, emphasizing the intimate relationship between the person and the planet, cultural stresses, nutrition and genetic inheritance.
The secret to Chinese medicine's success lies in its artistry: its ability to view each person as a unique constellation of energy or symptoms, not as a disease. The key to this ability is that while it certainly recognizes and can categorize and differentiate clinical manifestations into a disease pattern, it never sees the body, mind and spirit as separate. Fundamentally, the preponderance of symptoms are viewed as rooted in spirit. As the primary Chinese medical text, Neijing, the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine reminds us: "In order to cure disease, one must first establish contact with a patient's spirit." Chinese medicine has the tools to do so.
Such complementary therapies should be sought out for the benefit of the patient and are consonant with the general coals of the Cancer Advisory Panel on Complementary Medicine (CAPCAM), the National Cancer Institute (NCI), and undoubtedly any physician's deepest desires.
In the last year, I supervised a group of student interns in a private setting of Western physicians using Oriental medicine in the treatment of oncology patients undergoing Western medical intervention. This was an innovative experience, using the tools of Oriental medicine to support a large group of patients who consistently sought treatment in a fast-paced, heavily scheduled medical doctor's office. Due to the unique nature of this clinical setting, we began with a quick, easy treatment of utilizing auricular acupuncture on these patients.
A core presentation was designed with the combined purposes of addressing the side effects of allopathic treatment, the nature of the illness, and the person as a whole. It was employed in numerous ways: in its essence as described here, it was used as the skeletal outline of a treatment in which points could be added, deleted or used in combination with other treatment modalities. These points and their energetic functions are described below. Their locations are also illustrated in the diagram that follows.
Standard Ear Treatment to Enhance Immunity 1. Shenmen: perhaps the most important point in this prescription. Used to quiet the heart, calm the spirit and ground the patient. Establishes contact with the patient's spirit and puts the patient into a state of receptivity for treatment. According to the Su Wen, "When the heart is serene, all pain is negligible." Regulates the blood as it pertains to the heart. Reduces insomnia, anxiety, palpitations, neurasthenia and restlessness; neutralizes toxins; and cures inflammation.
2. Sympathetic (any of its three locations): decreases pain by increasing vasodilation. Improves circulation. Relaxes the sympathetic nervous system. Balances the autonomic nervous system. Improves overall functioning.
3. Lung (upper or lower): as the master of the qi, it increases energy, improves respiration, sends energy to the kidney and moves the liver (metal controls wood). Relieves depression and strengthens wei qi functioning. Aids in skin problems such as decreased wound healing capacity and decreases dry and irritated skin.
4. Liver: promotes the free flowingness of qi, maintains the internal potency of qi, and regulates the relationship between the internal and external environment. Moves qi and blood which may be stagnant. Balances the emotions. Builds yin and blood.
5. Kidney: to tonify the root qi, the basis of our immunity. Assists in hair regrowth and increases libido.
6/7. Spleen and stomach: to reinforce the qi of the middle jiao (for nausea and vomiting; assists in digestion and improves appetite). Reduces damp/phlegm, thereby reducing thirst and abdominal distention. Controls the blood and blood vessels. Grounds the patient and strengthens muscles. Builds blood.
8. Brain (subcortex): for fatigue, anxiety, swelling, shock, etc. Regulates cerebral excitation and pain perception. Regulates all body symptoms and neurological functioning. Reduces inflammation. Benefits the mind. For insomnia and neuropsychiatric disorders.

Sympathetic; 3A. Upper lung; 3B. Lower lung; 4. Liver; 5. Kidney; 6. Spleen; 7. Stomach; 8. Brain. Add or delete points based upon signs and symptoms if needed.
Needles and magraine pellets were most commonly employed. For patients whose constitution was relatively stronger, or for those who could not have body acupuncture done (for instance, they could not lie down comfortably or a room was not available), 36g ear needles chosen for patient comfort were to the standard depths of insertion (approximately .01 cun). A strong stimulus obtained by twirling was performed, and the needles were retained for 15-30 minutes. The opposite ear was then reinforced with pellets so that the patient could continue to receive the benefit of treatment.
For needle sensitive or weakened patients, gold magraine pellets were affixed to the ear for 3-5 days. Patients were instructed to gently massage the pellets for between 3-5 seconds several times a day and return to the clinic or remove them if they could not come in for treatment, since ear infection is possible in patients who are already immunocompromised. Regardless of the type of cancer, patients' response to this method was favorable. Most patients reported an abatement of nausea and fatigue and an improvement in appetite, sleep, stools, stamina and emotional attitude. On those patients whom treatment worked best, patients reported they could tell the difference between having the pellets in or out of the ear. They felt better with the pellets in the ear.
This simple yet effective treatment plan can be used to assist patients in not only managing the devastating symptoms of chemotherapy, radiation or cancer such that the quality of daily living is improved; it simultaneously augments the vital qi of the body, which is the basis of all health.

:candle: I light a candle today for Dolo and all who love and care about her. She was told by doc today that the goal is comfort care. Pain and other symptom management. No more chemotherapy, because it would interfere with her current quality of life. She knew what he was saying without his just coming out to say it. I could not ask the important things. To inquire how she felt about this. I was cowardly. Didn't want her to hear my voice if I asked. All I want now is for her to hang on til I get there. Please, a prayer for her comfort. For her kids. Her husband. And, for me, that I can bear it.:candle:

I know you may not believe this, but it hurts me to see you suffer. My heart hurts for you, something that quite frankly defies logic. I know what your sister means to you and the place she holds in your family line. Talk to her, even if she hears your pain, break down if you have to, but say everything to her you need to, share the pain it's real.Speak your heart, it's part of Loving someone.

I know that many people fear alternative therapies, she may be fed up enough with her current options to be willing to try something new.

Immune Enhancement for Oncology Patients through Auricular Acupuncture

By Skya Abbate, DOM
With close to 5,000 years of history, Chinese medicine has become adept at recognizing the signs and symptoms of the healthy human organism. It has developed and refined treatment modalities which redirect, cultivate and maintain proper physiological functioning. The essential Chinese treatment plan for patients diagnosed with cancer is to support normal cellular, tissue and organ physiology in the wake of the ravaging (and yet life-saving) techniques that characterize the most common allopathic approaches to cancer: surgery, drug therapies and radiation. Utilizing these standard treatments, augmentation with Chinese medical treatment not only relieves many side effects caused by these therapies but has also been shown clinically to strengthen the patient from the cellular level to the spiritual.
The Chinese treatment modalities most effective in the treatment of the whole person - and likewise the cancer - include internal and external herbal therapy; auricular acupuncture; body acupuncture; moxibustion (a combined heat/herbal therapy); and guided imagery. Patients respond well to these treatments, many of which are simple to learn, easy to administer, and are both cost and clinically effective because they are based on the Chinese world view, which recognizes the patterns of the proper flow of energy (or proper physiology and functioning).


Documented increases in white blood cell production; heightened energy; regrowth of hair; increased libido; decrease in nausea, vomiting, low appetite, abdominal distention, loose stools or constipation; alleviation of depression, anxiety, fear, irritability or other emotional aberrations; quicker wound healing capacity and response to infection; decrease in skin irritation, dry skin and muscular weakness; regulation of weight loss, thirst and pain; improvement in respiration - in short, an overall improvement in the quality of life, both in terms of physical problems and what they affect - these are the primary signs and symptoms with which Chinese medicine produces results. A broad range of systemic clinical manifestations is addressed, but ultimately, through this style of medicine, immunity is enhanced.

Twenty one years ago today, Marc Lepine, entered the doors of the l'École Polytechnique, the engineering department at the University of Montreal. He did not come out alive. Neither did 14 of his unsuspecting and innocent victims. They were all women. That’s why Lepine killed them. He systematically and methodically sought out women as his targets. They were assassinated in cold blood at Lepine’s hands. He used a small caliber hunting rifle.

"Each and every person in our society has the right to live in safety," said June Draude, Saskatchewan's Social Services Minister and Minister Responsible for the Status of Women. "Our government values the programs and services delivered by community-based organizations that offer support to those experiencing interpersonal violence. Violence is unacceptable and I urge everyone to work together in calling for its end."

In Canada, 40,200 incidents of spousal violence (i.e., violence against legally married, common-law, separated and divorced partners) were reported to pol...ice in 2007. This represents about 12 per cent of all police-reported violent crime in Canada. The majority of victims of spousal violence continue to be females, accounting for 83 per cent of victims.
