I do not read mpbser's statements as blaming any of us for our cancer. I see someone doing everything in her power to get a handle on a difficult situation and try to affect the outcome. I am doing the exact same thing. I've spent weeks researching HIPEC, folfirinox, avastin, and all sorts of other ...

Lots to digest here, butt thank you for taking the time to post all of this. I had read about antioxidants in blueberries as well. DH loves blueberries. I get him a blueberry pomegranate juice mix that he likes. I am in full agreement that high fructose corn syrup is the devil. It sounds like your D...

A gerbil eating a carrot? So does that mean the goats are not behind the conspiracy, but subservient to the gerbils? The Gerbil Inquisition cometh.

Either way Peanut, you win the thread.

Mercury joins Mars in Cancer today, so the planet of communication teams up with the warrior planet in a very emotional sign indeed! It could be a good time to get things off our chest and out into the open, but we should be aware that we might end up expressing ourselves from quite a subjective, u...

WELL...I see you all have been having fun during my short sabbatical :shock: :roll: :mrgreen: (9 yr old grandson w/me for last 3 wks) This topic has come up before re: the things people say that tend to offend cancer patients. My DH never did express anything to me that he found offensive. How abou...

BEV ... homie !!!! …so do your Peruvian goat milk enemas with Laetrile chasers in the latest holistic cleanse and I’ll see you on the other side So are these Peruvian goats behind BigCarrot? This conspiracy is international. It has more layers than I originally suspected. Maggie suggested gerbils w...

Indeed CRGuy, alkalized water is a controversial topic here on Colon Talk. :shock: :shock: :shock: http://coloncancersupport.colonclub.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=50333 And now we know that BigCarrot is just another facet of the Alkalized Water Industrial Complex. WE ARE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS P...

I'm senior operator at a water treatment plant. We add caustic soda at the end of the process in order to raise the pH of the water we send into the system. The reason for this is that water with a pH below 7.0 or so will leach the lead out of old pipes. We put out water at about 7.5, but some othe...

We drink water that I collect from a spring on top of a mountain at a national forest that we live in the foothills of. I wonder what its pH is. Also, whenever I can, I buy alkalized water. I have recently been making sure that my husband drinks it also, now that he has been DXed. The thing with dr...

Graham crackers may go nicely with the vanilla ensure. I try to bring saltines and peanut butter for my husband. Herbal, ginger teas are also a great idea. They help my husband with his nausea and are just comforting in general. My $0.02, don't travel light to chemo. See if you can get your mom a ro...

Sarah, I hear you sister. Some days are ok and I can function. Some days, it seems almost impossible to get out of bed, let alone converse with someone. I'm glad your are able to frame your MSK visit a little differently in your mind. I hope that very soon you will be able to add to the recent list ...

I always wondered why there was a cancer zodiac sign. It seemed weird. Thanks, Justin. I learned something really cool today. Lee, thank you for sharing your story. I've read a lot of your posts and they give me hope every time. Peanut, the Folgers meme is awesome. OK, I got a new one: Person: What ...

We all know that BigCarrot owns the media. Ok, gang, please let's not bring crossover from other threads here. This space belongs to all of us, so you can in fact, write whatever you please. I just want to act silly right now. mpbser, if you and I compared notes, I expect we would disagree on a lot ...

The people I was ranting about in the very first post. Fortunately, those folks are rare. Most people are kind and genuinely want to help. A few, are just plain obnoxious. Rather than continue to stew about it, I wrote out some of my in-head responses. Now, admit it, BigCarrot is funny. Surely we ca...

Hey, everyone needs to make their own choice. DH and I have made ours. We don't get to tell other people how to handle their disease and we'd appreciate the same courtesy in return. It's OK to agree to disagree. Now, let's please get back to humorous hyperbole. Also, anyone who disagrees with me has...
