Update: Serious Health Issues

When I went back to check when I had last updated about my aunt's serious health condition, I could only find something back in August '06. Did I never give any other updates?? Anyway, here goes.

Diagnosed with serious health condition in July (lungs), started NCD in August, surgery in September (never measured before surgery), followed by radiation and chemo and such things that might treat a serious health condition. She took NCD on and off as she could remember it. She eventually healed from the surgery, suffered through the treatments and was pronounced serious-health-condition-free in April '07. Yea! Celebration!

However, the joy was not to last. Less than two months later, her next check up revealed that it had returned. :( This time, however, because of the difficult time she had had with previous treatments, they told her there was very little they could do for her. After numerous tests, they finally told her that she could undergo another difficult surgery to remove it, but there was a chance, if it was in a certain place, that they would not be able to do anything.

So, last October, she elected for the surgery as the only recourse against the serious health condition invading her body. Unfortunately, they discovered that it was in such a place that they could do nothing to help, so they sewed her back up. She has slowly been healing from that ordeal. In late November '07, she decided, since she had no other recourse, that she would give NCD another try, so she started taking it more regularly, trying diligently to take 15 drops at least 3 times/day.

In early December, I called to see how she was doing, only to find that she was out Christmas shopping for the second day in a row and was feeling great. She had told her husband once, while in the process of taking her drops of Natural Cellular Defense, that she wasn't sure if it was the NCD or not, but she sure felt more energetic.

Earlier this week, I spoke to her again. She reported that she had come down with a cold a couple of weeks ago, so she stopped taking the NCD. Once her cold was mostly gone, she resumed the NCD and immediately felt peppier. She says now that she really thinks it's doing something for her. And we're still praying for her miracle.

She doctors have told her officially that she has about 6 months left. We have a family reunion scheduled in June. We're planning a Miracle Celebration that weekend for her because she WILL still be there to celebrate!
