Laura – You won’t believe this, but I’m NOT enjoying sweet food. This from a sugar addict who couldn’t stop binging on it. During 41 years of sugar cravings, I’ve tried everything (12 step programs, hypnosis, talk therapy, the GAPS diet, in fact loads of diets). The Gerson Therapy has cured me of this problem…

Stinky Pits
Laura – I always prided myself on having armpits that didn’t smell. I used a crystal rock as a deodorant and it really curtailed the odor. Little did I know that it contained aluminum which is highly toxic. Like most people I thought if it didn’t contain aluminum chloride it was okay to use. Well it’s…
Food Cravings
Laura- I’ve been driving Lucie bonkers talking about food and sniffing her meals that are off limits to me. Decided to take my food cravings of the day online. I was reading recipes for a caramelized onion, mushroom and gruyere quiche. Somehow I want some sharp cheese and something creamy.
Working Up An Appetite
Laura- I have a new ploy of reading cook books. The one in the photo is by Alice Waters who is Lucie’s favorite cook. Reading it right before lunch helps me build up an appetite. I can barely eat the food on the Gerson diet and at this point I’m just forcing it in. It’s…
Clean Water
Laura- Every morning I feel like a woman in a foreign land scavaging for fresh water to clean myself. Luckily I don’t have to go too far…there are 10 gallon jugs of distilled water sitting on my living room floor. It’s not easy to wash when you can’t use the shower, the bath or anything…
Hungry for Animal Protein
Laura- Why can’t vegetables smell as good as meat? Lucie came home with an organic burger tonight and I am getting high off the smell. If you know me, that I like to eat comes as no surprise. I fancied myself a gourmet diner and could have been a food critic. There’s nothing more pleasurable than…
Warrior Woman
Laura- My girl Lucie, she sure is somethin’. She is like a warrior fighting for me to get healthy. Lucie is a Scotswoman in every way. In the olden days the Romans were so frightened by the Scots that they built Hadrian’s Wall to keep them out. The women were allegedly fiercer fighters than the…
Our Last Day
Laura- I’m scared about going home tomorrow to do the therapy. It’s been very restful at the Gerson Clinic. Everything here is taken care of and now we will have to organize all this on our own. I’ve formed strong bonds with the other patients. When your life is at stake, it brings you closer…
Bookworm
Laura – Since getting cancer, I’ve become a voracious reader. I’m reading like never before. It has become very important for me to escape into other worlds because mine has gotten so small.
Going gray
Laura – I’m a vain person. I want to look as young as possible. I’ve dyed my hair since my 40s. This is the last vanity that I have right now and I’m scared to let it go. I’ve been Googling pictures of women with gray hair – some look old, some look beautiful….
