We're back!

Hi fam and friends!

Sorry we've been MIA! It's been a very busy couple of days.  Mom had her first major "flare up" a few days ago and was really sick for two days. She had chemo-like symptoms and was put on a gruel-only diet. WOOOF! She finally started to feel better on Wednesday night and we decided to take a midnight swim. Then we did a photo shoot and she took about 50 pictures of me. I tried my hardest to be a good model, but she was pretty tough. She got out of the pool and was shouting, "swim...now freeze...YOU'RE STILL MOVING...ok smile..a REAL smile...swim again...freeze...YOU'RE MOVING!!!" I tried to explain that it was hard to stop mid-stroke, but she has high expectations of models, especially a top model like me. Here are a few gems:

Still moving, which means
I'm getting yelled at.

Sad and confised by the situation.

Success...good thing because I was wrinkled
as a prune by the time she was done with me.

In other news, mom and I have become MAJOR 24 fans. We've watched the first two seasons and have developed a deep respect ad love for Jack Bauer. In fact, as an act of solidarity, mom now wears a special helmet and salutes J.B. at the close of each episode.

I salute you, Jack.

Yesterday we went through all of the information we've received about transitioning home. We ordered a bunch of supplies online and started to set up a schedule so that we can hit the ground running when we get home. We are so excited to get back to all of you, but it is definitely overwhelming to think about carrying this intense plan on ourselves. It is a huge luxury to have an entire kitchen and medical staff  on hand to cook, juice, administer meds and clean for us. But, we've got some really great ideas on how we can be successful back in Maine, and the people here are extremely supportive and helpful. It's overwhelming, but also so EXCITING and amazing that we have this new plan and so very much hope. Every day we learn more about how and why Dr. Gerson's Therapy works - for Cancer and other chronic and degenerative diseases. There are so many examples and case studies of people healing, all because they give their bodies what they need to fight back.

Dr. Gerson said that all chronic and degenerative diseases are a result of deficiency and toxicity. The therapy takes care of the deficiency by pumping the patient full of nutrients in the juices and supplements. The coffee and castor oil enemas encourage the liver to rid itself of all of the toxins it collects from what we eat, breath, put on our bodies and are exposed to in many other ways. It's so simple, compared to all of the other conventional treatments that are out there, but conventional methods most often add toxins to the body and prevent us from absorbing nutrients when what we really need is to restore our immune systems and nourish our organs so they can actually do their jobs. I meant to add a Gerson Info page, but haven't had the chance to do so yet. If anyone is interested in this or wants to share some info with another person who is sick with cancer, or anything else, PLEASE watch/share one of the three Gerson movies listed above. We have copies and will be bringing them home, but I know that you can get at least one of them from Netflix.

OK that's all for now. Mom's getting ready for her next big salute and I think she may want do a marching drill and maybe choreograph a synchronized swimming routine in honor of Jacky boy. Wish me luck.

Much love to all of you,
k
