Limfoma

: Limfoma Maligna non-Hodgkin

 

Just got suddenly on November 2012. Treatment by Luke Chen, MD, at VGH, BC

Th: CVP-R= Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, Prednisone - Rituximab

I Love her more...

Here is my experience of the last retreat at Camp Hamilton, WA, February 15 - 17, 2013.
Retreat Hamilton and Cured!

Ever since we first heard about the retreats offered by Daughters of Carmel, we have always wanted to go. We were scared, though, as my beloved wife, Farida, was undergoing chemotherapy for her lymphoma and thus we would need to go to hospital right away if her temperature reaches 38°C or more. Because of the treatment, her antibody count was low, so it was easy for her to get an infection. Our friends, Prisca and Andry, have promised to help Farida and encouraged us to attend. Then, we heard that all three Daughters of Carmel sisters were sick – what if it spreads to Farida? Furthermore, just before we left for Camp Hamilton, our hot water tank was broken. Despite everything, we decided to go anyway. The retreat started on February 15 while Farida’s last chemo was on February 5th, only 10 days prior. With this in mind, we asked for God's help and we depended on Him fully.


The retreat was two nights and three days with each day having a full schedule starting from 7 in the morning until 10 at night. The Seattle team helped us with almost everything. Denny, Katrina, Louis, Jessica and all of their friends worked very hard to make this retreat happened. We would sleep at midnight and wake up by 6 am the next day. Farida could not sleep on the first night, Aswita, who has been without seizure for more than 5 years, was tired but looked happy. And there was no sign of fever. Thank God!

On Sunday, Feb 17, 2013, the third day of the retreat, during the Baptism of the Spirit, I heard God's voice, He said: "I love Farida more than you do!" Suddenly, I cried and tears kept falling from my eyes. How wonderful God is! I felt God's blessing and fell on my knees, "Lord Jesus, how merciful and amazing you are. You never let me down, Even though I am a sinner, You always help me, Farida, and Aswita" Until now I remember this special moment. This Voice is my joy and my consolation. He makes me feel at peace and very secure. Every time I recall His voice, I can’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude. Thank You, thank You, Lord Jesus! How good and wonderful You are!

Love,
Petrus
Cured !

Intermittent Fasting to Reverse DM

 Beberapa WA dan emails japri,. menanyakan re: therapy DM, Fasting 16/8, BB tidak turun atau makin kurus, dan Anemia


Ditemukan kabar baik, bahwa DM bisa disembuhkan dengan Fasting. Intermittent Fasting (IF). 
Tetapi ada bbrp pertanyaan yg timbul, yaitu: BB tidak turun atau bahkan sebaliknya makin kurus, bahkan sampai terjadi anemia.
Jawaban dari saya, please koreksi atau tambahkan:
1. DM bisa di-REVERSE (disembuhkan) dengan Fasting = Intermittent Fasting (please lihat copas dibawah).
2. BB TETAP, tidak turun, walaupun sudah melakukan IF, ialah karena jumlah kalori intake tetap sama spt sebelum IF. Kalau mau turun, ya intake kalori-nya diturunkan.
   Sejak Dec 2021, walaupun saya (lebih) banyak makan karena di Vancouver, lalu Natal - Tahun Baru ternyata BB saya tetap berkisar 80 Kg. Selama ini, sejak sekitar May 2021 melakukan IF 16/8. Lalu di Ottawa saya kurangi intake kalori, dan AHA.. sejak awal Jan 2022 turun menjadi 79, dan sekarang 78 Kg. HbA1C turun menjadi 5.7
3. BB TURUN terlalu cepat, yaitu makin KURUS, atau/dan Anemia.
jawab: IF terus dilakukan perlahan mulai dari 12/12, ke target 16/8. Tetapi variasi makanan HARUS ditambah jumlah kalori dan protein. Sumber protein yang mudah didapat ialah telur & susu. 
    
Beberapa bahan bacaan, (yg merupakan hasil riset) Benjamin Hardy, psikolog, dan Jeffrey Rediger, psikiater. Sangat menguatkan dan memberikan harapoan, bahwa DM bisa di-Reverse.

1. The best of all medicines are rest and fasting, Benjamin Franklin
   
Fasting from food for eighteen-plus hours is one of the most powerful ways to enhance your subconscious. Given that your physical body is your subconscious, when you purposefully deprive yourself from food, you are literally resetting the body, allowing it to rest and recover rather than digest. 
Fasting has been found to rapidly dissipate the craving for nicotine, alcohol, caffeine, and other drugs. It also increases levels of catecholamines—such as dopamine—which elevates your happiness and confidence while reducing your anxiety. 
Fasting actually increases your number of brain cells. 
Fasting can increase your longevity and lifespan. Research has found that age-related declines in cognitive and motor abilities (such as physical balance) can be reduced by fasting. It also reduces cognitive stressors that bring about aging, cognitive decline, and chronic diseases. Other research has found that fasting can improve the overall quality of your sleep. It also improves focus, learning, memory, and ability to comprehend information. Research at Yale has found that being on an empty stomach helps you think and focus better. Hence, many people, such as Malcolm Gladwell, purposefully skip breakfast so they can better focus on their creative work.
Many books have been written about the benefits of fasting. However, as it relates to enhancing your subconscious, the point is that fasting can improve confidence, emotional flexibility, and self-control. Fasting is a form of physical and emotional practice that enables you to connect to your deeper side. Personally, I’ve been practicing fasting consistently for nearly fifteen
 from: Personality isn't permanent, Benjamin Hardy, 2020, page 190-191

2. “My body said to me, ‘You’ve been treating me like crap for years. You’ve been throwing caffeine and alcohol at me, no sleep, eating like a racehorse.’ My body said, ‘I’m done.’” (p.79)

3. Though type 2 diabetes is not technically an “incurable” illness, it is commonly treated as incurable. Wood’s doctors did not treat it as reversible and were shocked when he did recover.
The percentage of people worldwide with diabetes has nearly doubled since 1980, rising from 4.7 to 8.5 percent among adults. And prevalence has been increasing faster in recent years, not only in adults but now also in children. This increased prevalence is increasingly impacting not only the quality of life and finances of individuals and families but also the economies of nations. The rising rates of obesity are thought to have an important relationship to this increasing prevalence. (p.376)

4. The person who takes medicine must recover twice. Once from the disease and once from the medicine. —William Osler, M.D. (p.74)
No 2,3 dan 4 dari: CURED, Jeffrey Rediger, 2020,

Mengenang orangtua, sepupu, kedua teman baik, yang meninggal dengan cepat karena DM, maka IF adalah jalan keluar. Hanya sedikit berkorban. Tunda makan. Lalu saya dan anda bisa mendapat kesembuhan. Bahkan menjadi jauh lebih sehat dan segar, tanpa kuatir sakit: Jantung, Mata, Ginjal, Extremitas, dll yg merupakan komplikasi DM.
