Hi everyone.Ive been feeling like Im dreaming for 3 days now.I found out my mom has leukemia.She has been sick for at least 6 months...all the doctors thought she had lyme disease so they were treating her for that..but she was in so much pain.Friday she went to the hospital with chest pains and her stomach kept doing this spasm thing.So they took her blood...and come to find out she has acute myloid leukemia.I cant stop crying...me and my little sister (im 20 she is 17) are going to be staying at home while she is there(the doctors estimate 2 weeks to a month).Today they gave her a bone marrow test and wednesday when they get the tests back they are going to begin intravenous chemotherapy.I just cant believe this is happening to her.As long as Ive known my mother shes been the strongest,bravest,most hilarious woman Ive ever met...but now seeing her in the hospital like that...I feel like Im gonna go crazy.Just two years ago she was climbing rock and ice(her and her ex boyfriend who died climbing god rest his soul,were pro rock and ice climbers)and now she doesnt have enough energy to walk.Im so sad and I just came here because I was hoping ya'll could put my mother in your prayers.I figured I'd leave her birthdate in case somebody could tell me if they think shes gonna beat this illness.She was born September 19 1962 Bristol,CT USA Thank all of you who read this,your words and prayers mean so much to me. Love,ElizaIP: Logged |

Thank you so much everyone.I just got back from visiting her.Today they started the chemotherapy which they will do for a week,then the next two weeks are the bad waiting period.They will watch her blood count,maybe do a second period of chemo.Then if nothing else works they will do a bone marrow transplant.Im so sad.I cant stop crying...but i have to.I know I have to be positive and know she is going to be alright in order for her to be cured and live on.So I BELIEVE she will...she seems happier then the other day..I think shes just glad they finally found out what this was and now she is going to be treated.So I will keep posting how its going because I feel it will help me get through this to hear positive feedback and loving sentiments.Thank you for writing and praying.I know that you do heal people when you believe strong enough and have many people praying.Thank you so much for just listening also.Love and Light,ElizaIP: Logged |

Well my mother was doing better,was out of the hospital for about two weeks,and now they have put her back in.The doctors say that the leukiemia is "aggresive" and next week she will be sent to Boston to Harvard Hospital for a bone marrow transplant.Luckily,my mom's sister was a match so at least they dont have to spend extra time looking for one.The doctors say she will be in the hospital at least a month this next time but could possibly be in there for up to a year.I am very devastated as I thought she was getting better now it is not looking as good.I am still remaining ever-so-positive and also got a job at a supermarket so I can help take care of my little sister and I.Well I guess I was posting this hoping maybe for some more healing thoughts/prayers/energies for her,this will be a very trying time for me and my sister,but more so,for her.If you can,please include her in your daily prayers,she is a very wonderful soul,and it is far too early for her to leave us yet. PeaceLove&Light to us all Eliza IP: Logged |

From the HerbMaster CD: quote: OKRA Hanna Kroger, Ageless Remedies from Mothers Kitchen Regulates female bleeding. Gives strength to leukemic patients.
I did a search for 'crystal correspondences + Leukemia', and found only this one link. Maybe you can find something there that might help. Click me. Then searched for crytals + blood. Found this quote: Carnelian is good to use for energising the blood, kidneys, lungs, liver, gall bladder and mental bodies. It also assists in stimulating a deeper love and appreciation for the beauty and gifts of the earth and the physical plane.Carnelian: Bearer of the Orange Colour ray. Related to the Sex/navel Chakra. Balances creativity and mental processes. Increases appetite and energy, courage, eloquence, abuse recovery, sexual/emotional abuse, Sexual energy balance, cancer, Purification, concentration, focus, gall bladder, joy, kidneys, liver, physical manifestation, optimism, overeating, past lives, regeneration, sexuality, sexual organs, soothing, spontaneity, trauma recovery
Here From here quote: Cancer Related Diseases - Rhodochrosite, Abalone, Smoky Quartz, Sugilite
If you search around, you may find other alternative means for helping her being more comfortable. Maybe, check and see if any of those stones can safely be used in an elixir. IP: Logged |

Since this is a Cancer-related dis-ease, read about this man and what he made to cure himself, that he now makes available to the world: http://www.jasonwinters.com/ IP: Logged |

Things are going very badly for my mother right now and I was wondering if youz would be willing to send some healing light and prayers to her and my little sister...For the past month,my mother has been in the best cancer hospital in the US Dana/Farber institute of Boston,recieving Chemotherapy,Radiation,and a Bone Marrow Transplant for Luekiemia.She was doing well until about a week or two ago,began getting sores throughout her throat,mouth,and stomach,then laryengitis.They had her on morphine,all the worst stuff,she was hallucinating,didnt even know why she ws in the hospital anymore,thought maybe she was having a baby.Jesus,man,I feel like Im losing it over here just talking about it.So the other day the doctors said her white blood cell count went way back up,and she was released about three days ago.I have been cleaning my house(we had to throw out the rugs,furniture,alot of the things I own,probably am going to have to get rid of my Libra Cat Nico I have had for 10 years because the house has to be spotless)and my mother seems to be getting worse.She doesnt even look like my mother anymore,just like a skeleton.I am so scared,she is gonna die maybe,and then I will also have to find a new place to live because my sister is going to college in the fall to Pennsylvania.Please pray for her and send healing vibrations to her.She is born September 19 1962 in Bristol,CT.She is a very loving Virgo/Gemini,used to be a rock and ice climber,worked her life away supporting my sister and I as a single mother.We will apreciate it immensly.Thank you.
