Miracles Don't Come Easy
We wish we had better news to report on Chase’s MRI from Friday, but unfortunately it showed an increase in size by about 25%. This is resulting in additional symptoms lately with more weakness on his right side – he is unable to use his right hand and his imbalance is preventing him from getting around much.
This was of course pretty devastating news and it took a while to pick ourselves back up again, but just like the resurrection, within 3 days we returned to full faith and confidence that everything is working out perfectly. We actually believe that there is significant breakdown occurring within the tumor but that it can only be purged from Chase’s body at the pace of its detoxification, which is becoming our gating factor. When you travel (particularly long international trips), the body tends to get dehydrated and this prevents the purging that is needed for detoxification. He also hasn’t been drinking enough fluids lately and he was constipated for a few days upon our return. All of this is leading us to conclude that our focus in the short-term needs to be as many aspects of detoxification as possible and we’re going to be adding a regular detox foot bath for the next few weeks.
On a positive note, Chase’s Naturopath did an updated frequency scan (advanced Rife technology) which seemed to indicate a significant reduction in the presence of cancer in his system. She believes the increased size is also either dead cells swelling or bacteria. Hopefully this is the case and with enough purging we can get the tumor to shrink so that his symptoms can subside. The swelling is causing nausea once again, headaches, fatigue and feeling bad in general.
Thus, we have chosen to keep Chase home from school – there’s only a few weeks of kindergarten left and he’s not in any condition to participate (he’s actually somewhat miserable when pushed to participate in things). The positive side of this is that he’ll get a lot of quality time with Carol, which is what he probably really needs for the TLC to get healed. He’ll also be able to take more naps, which again should help his body repair itself, and being home around the clock will enable us to monitor more closely his meds and make adjustment, if necessary. Of course, this means a lot more work on the home front in the short term, but perhaps this is a blessing to keep us all focused and grounded in devout prayer.
In short, we think this is just another test of faith. Sometimes it’s darkest before the light – we just have to remain positive and pray that His will be done, believing that whatever that may be, it’s Divine Order and in our best interest. One last positive note – I received an e-mail update over the weekend about another patient (6 yrs old) with the exact same condition as Chase, diagnosed 2 wks after him and her MRI last was essentially clear (a vague shadow of the old tumor). They were using the same homeopathic remedy we are and a lot of prayer – God is good!
Thanks for all the prayers and support! With lots of love and gratitude,
