Subject: BS: Healing thoughts please? From: Liz the Squeak Date: 24 Feb 03 - 08:28 PM I wish I could remove the BS from here, because this sure as hell isn't BS.... Bestest freind has just discovered today that her nearly sister Judith (mostly grew up together, 12 years!), after being diagnosed with breast cancer last year which she was told hadn't spread 5 months ago, found out today that it had spread to her liver and other vital organs. The prognosis is worst case scenario. Please, if you feel so inclined, sit and pray for her and her family, send them your healing thoughts, she is a wonderful lady who has had a supremely crappy year, and thinks of others before herself. She deserves so much better than we can give her, please? Also, should you feel so inclined, could you please click on Please click here... as often as you can? Thank you all. LTS |

Subject: RE: BS: Healing thoughts please? From: Bobert Date: 24 Feb 03 - 09:03 PM My Judith (Born Judy White, Feb 29, 1944), died of breast cancer October 2, 1998. I guess the only thing worse than the disease is the level of treatment that exists which we will one day look back on a barbaric. Yes, your Judith and her family and friends will be in my prayers. And, though you didn't say, I hope that she is a woman of Faith. It does make the *rest of her life* that much fuller. I was looking at a video the other night of my Judy that was taken less than a month before she died. The cancer had spread to her lungs yet we were at a big flea market with her pushing around a cart with oxygen and crackin' jokes. And... buying junk! Says a lot about just what a little Faith can add to the living part of being very sick. I'll pray that she can find that level of peace. Bobert |

Subject: RE: BS: Healing thoughts please? From: GUEST,DancingMom Date: 24 Feb 03 - 11:27 PM My Mom has struggled with breast cancer for the past two years. Chemo, double mastectomy, more chemo, and radiation. She swears by the power of positive thinking. These ladies teach the rest of us so much. Sharon |

Subject: RE: BS: Healing thoughts please? From: Peg Date: 24 Feb 03 - 11:41 PM the exact same thing has happened to a dear friend of mine Liz; JP was diagnozed with melanoma a few months ago, and ended up having his lymph nodes removed. He was cancer free, and on his second round of chemo, but then a suspicious skin rash led to a decision to biopsy his liver and, well, his liver is now riddled with it. he quit smoking two weeks ago and we are trying to help him change his (atrocious) eating habits. He's only in his mid-30s and just to look at him you'd think he was fairly healthy. His oncologist says there is a slim chance of recovery but realistically that they probably can't cure it. But he is not giving up. I have seen people with inoperable and incurable cancer (of the brain and stomach) emerge completely cured; it IS possible! It helped that these folks had a lot of people working magic for them and throwing a lot of positive energy in their direction. I send health and light to your friend...and hope she beats this! peg |
Subject: RE: BS: Healing thoughts please? From: Mark Cohen Date: 25 Feb 03 - 12:04 AM Liz, you may already be familiar with it, but you might take a look at the book Love, Medicine, and Miracles by Dr. Bernie Siegel, and see if you think it would be appropriate to give to your friend or her sister. Even though he talks about people who recovered from "incurable" diseases, the book is much more than "how to have a miracle cure." Because not everybody experiences a miracle, even if they do everything "right." The book is a gem. Prayers and good thoughts coming your way, and to Judith and her sister. Aloha, Mark |

Subject: RE: BS: Healing thoughts please? From: Liz the Squeak Date: 25 Feb 03 - 02:54 AM Gargoyle - I was under the impression that the people here WERE friends. Friends tell each other the good stuff and the bad stuff. Your comments, though insensitive, thoughtless and crass, are actually valid points that we have discussed, although not with Judith. I daresay, Judith, being the sort of woman she is, has arranged all the details and is just making the most of what she has now. Judith herself is still thinking of others, especially her 2 children and her family. She won't sit and be miserable, but her friends and family need all the help and support they can get. They're the ones who will be left behind when Judith takes her longest journey. Bestest friend doesn't want to spend time moping and crying, or offering up prayers to whatever deity, but knows about the power of positive healing, that's why she asked me to ask our Mudcat friends and extended 'family' to do the healing thoughts, so she can spend as much time with Judith as possible. Thank you everyone, and please, continue to click on the site - you all have a female relative somewhere, it may mean the difference between life and death. LTS |
Subject: RE: BS: Healing thoughts please? From: Stilly River Sage Date: 25 Feb 03 - 03:09 AM Ignore Gargoyle, he's off his meds again. I've heard good things about the book Mark recommends. Another one I've heard recommended on several occasions is by Caroline Myss, called Anatomy of the Spirit: The Seven Stages of Power and Healing. My good thoughts are directed your way. SRS |
