Rootling about in the back end of this blog I found one of Laura’s unpublished posts from October, 4 2014. It may partly explain our obsession with Downton Abbey Laura – Lucie and I love movies and we usually like the same thing. But we can’t agree on what to watch on TV. She wants…

Having Hope
Laura – We are planning all these things that say I’m dying such as having the Visiting Nurse Services provide palliative care in our home and trying to decide whether to get married or not. I want to be linked to Lucie for eternity. We love each other so much. But I’m very sad and depressed…
When will there be good news?
Laura – Lucie picked up the full report of my PET/CT scan on Monday and we found the tumors spread much worse than we thought. The doctor didn’t tell us on the phone how bad it was. The cancer spread to most of my organs and my bones. Mucosal melanoma is the most aggressive cancer…
The Cancer Doctor
Laura – I went again to one of the “best cancer hospitals” this Friday. It’s a joke to me since they haven’t anything healthy to offer me. I saw the chemo doctor. I had to, since I needed to schedule a full body PET Scan which I will have today at 8 AM. I told…
Exhaustion
Laura – I can’t tell you how many times I want to stop the Gerson diet, especially now that I have a secondary infection. I feel dizzy and weak. I haven’t been juicing or doing enemas for days so in some way I’m not doing the Gerson therapy right now. All I can really do…
Gerson Therapy Support Group
Laura – Today I joined the Gerson Therapy Support group’s Facebook page and I have been posting there ever since. I’m feeling less alone knowing there are other people I can connect with who are recovering from cancer using the same therapy as I am. People share advice and experiences and offer support. I was…
More Food Porn
Laura – I love food and don’t believe anybody could love it more than me. Sometimes I scroll through Google images just looking at clams, sardines, lamb, oxtail, short ribs, pork belly, etc. I can get lost doing this for hours. Today it was Lobster Newburgh. I’ve had my share of New England lobster in…
Anxiety and Biking
Laura -Recently I’ve been suffering from lots of anxiety about how different my life has become. I’m no longer working, living in a different place, afraid I’ll lose my business, worried about having enough money to get through 2 years of this treatment and how I’ll support myself in the future. I’ve also got in touch…
Meditation and Cancer
Gregory Colbert Laura – I started meditating at the age of 17 with Transcendental Meditation. I would sit in bed repeating my mantra and fall asleep. So much for meditation. Over the years I would try to connect with a Higher Power, the Universe, whatever you want to call it but always had a hard…
Tumors Disintegrating
Laura – This is going to sound disgusting but the whole purpose of the Gerson protocol is to get rid of the cancer and I just had a sign that it’s working. In my underwear I found a blob of flesh. Now never in my 58 years have I had this experience and I’m going…
Snorty Pants
Laura – I used to be a very heavy snorer and for several years suffered from sleep apnea, which I just read can cause cancer. A 2012 study reported that people with sleep apnea have a 4.8 times higher incidence of cancer mortality. Apparently the oxygen deprivation causes angiogenesis (rapid new blood vessel growth), which feeds…
