I begin the treatment protocol prescribed by Dr. Halle, my naturopath oncologist. I share with Dr. Brian, my light touch chiropractor, as I begin two components of this new treatment- Intravenous Vitamin C and DIM. Hopelessness shifts to hopeful as I ponder the potential of my new treatment plan.

Subject: thanks for checking in
Thank you, Dr. Brian. Yes, the appointment with Dr. Halle went well. [Dr. Halle is a naturopath oncologist. In addition to having gone to medical school, he is an energy worker trained in many modalities, including craniosacral and acupuncture.]
They started me on a low dosage [of intravenous vit. C] because they are waiting for the blood test to clarify that I am appropriate for this treatment. Apparently 5% of the population has a genetic defect that makes them unable to do this treatment. I see the doctor next Tuesday, and we will begin full-dosage treatment, twice a week, providing the blood test comes back in my favor.
I am also starting on DIM, which is a broccoli supplement that is also supposed to be helpful in both cancer treatment and prevention.
There are more aggressive treatments we can try also, but I think Dr. Halle’s plan is to start with the vitamin C drip and the DIM and then retest me in 4–6 weeks. Based on those results, treatment can be modified as needed.
Dr. Brian, I feel very happy. For a long time, I have been going back and forth between the positive and negative, and something happened over the last week, I cannot say exactly when, but the “positive” became solidified, anchored in my body—I feel it in my abdomen—this anchoring presence that was not there before. When I see you, I will show you where I feel it. I am also making great progress on expressing my anger. I smashed glass containers last night outside in my backyard and I ordered some plastic bats for beating :)
As you witnessed in our session, when I express my anger, energy moves. This could finally be the piece that truly liberates me :)
I look forward to tomorrow, as always . . .
Blessings and a hug and a smile,
Laura
