Tomorrow Will Be Better

This is the best day the world has ever seen. Tomorrow will be better.

My second day here has been quite good. The food is good and I have been eating much more that the other patients. They were just amazed the amount of food helping I took. I can't help it because I would feel hungry again in two hours time. I started the full program today doing 13 juices a day. Some of the patients feel full just from the juices and can't take their lunch and dinner.

The weather is rather cold for me. At different times of the day, the weather seems to be changing between cool and cold. This makes doing the coffee enemas a little difficult, especially at night. The enema time are fixed by my doctor. So far, all my enemas are in the daytime but it will increase to five times daily which will involve early morning and at night as well. Although there is a heater in the room, the heat generated is not sufficient. So I use a blanket to help keep warm.

I took my first injection today. It was not as painful as I thought but still I have to learn how to give myself injections from Saturday onwards. I am still trying to figure out how to convince myself to inject a needle on my own butt. I understand I may have to do this for five months!

I had my first short stroll along the beach today after the 3pm juicing. It was a hot or should I say not a cold day. The waves were pounding as if venting their anger on the beach. It was quiet, a few couples were seen along the beach but the beach and street were deserted. Economic activity here seems to be centered around the US navel base nearby.

I just found out next week, with one week left before the clinic closes for the winter break, another Malaysian will be admitted to the clinic. I am looking forward to meet him. I was told that he has been to the clinic before.

First Day At Gerson Clinic

This morning, my shuttle car came to take me to Tijuana was late for about 20 minutes. Judy who was the driver is such a nice person and we had such a good conversation during the entire 30 minutes drive from San Diego to Tijuana. Crossing to Mexico is such a breeze, no formalities, no immigration, nothing. We just drove across the border. But on the opposite direction, cars were lining up to go back into USA. According to Judy, it can take 2 to 3 hours of waiting just to get back to the US side. There are a total of four border crossings and for my return trip, Judy said she will use another border crossing that will be much faster, possibly about 45 minutes to get back into US.

I arrived at the playas (beach in Spanish) where the clinic is located. So the patients are allowed to go for short walks along the beach (two blocks away) during the day. Patients are not allowed out of the clinic compound after 6pm. During winter time, it gets dark by 5pm and the temperature at night can drop from 17°C in the daytime to about 5°C at night. I think the security in the clinic area is not too bad but I was told not to take my cellphone and accessories (like gold, etc) with me when I do my walks.

The clinic is a double story detached house and can accomodate 10 patients at a time. It was much smaller than I tought and including me, there are 9 patients. Most of them will be leaving this week as I was the last of patient admitted before the clinic closes on 20 December for the winter break. The atmosphere is quite nice and quite. I think it is very condusive for healing. The staffs here are very good and friendly. The food is delicious. Much better than what I have been eating back home. I will need to learn how they made it so that I could do the same back home. Most of the patients hails from US and Canada and one each from India, New Zealand and Malaysia. They are all very happy and most of the patients are recovering. I have yet to meet the patient from India as he seems to be in his room most of the time. I found out that the last Malaysian that stayed in the clinic was from Kuching about five months ago.

Well I have been only a day here, I guess that will be more to discover. I spent most of my time sleeping because I don't have to do any juicing and the juices are delivered to my room at the scheduled time. I took my coffee enema this afternoon and I will be starting the castor oil enema tomorrow. So far so good. I am still getting hungry but unfortunately no otameal in between. So I got only fruits to fill my tummy at night. Better than nothing. Tomorrow I will be on the full regime including getting injections. For the first 5 days, the nurse will help me but I will have to do my own injections after that. Sigh...

Impression Of San Diego

Positive thoughts are not enough. There have to be positive feelings and positive actions.

I got my first bird eye viewe of San Diego city up in the sky when I arrived last Friday inside the American Eagle plane as it was landing. Not that many high rise buildings and the streets seem congested because I could see lots of cars on the freeway. The plane landed in Terminal R, possibly the oldest terminal of the San Diego International Airport. The plane was small and could sit about 51 of us only. Checkout was quick and easy. I waitied for about 15 minutes outside the airport for a taxi but none was forthcoming. It was already dark and not to mention cold then and finally I asked an airport official for directions on how to take the public bus to downtown.

The bus was rather empty, only four of us. The road to downtown was not congested at all, in fact rather quite for a Friday night. I was happy as bus stopped on the start of the street where the motel was located. However, after 15 minutes of walking, I still could not see the motel in sight and was begining to get worried. After askeing for more directions, I found out that the motel was located at the other far end of the same street, about another 15 minutes walk. As I was walking towards the motel, I could see quite a number of homeless people making the sidewalk as their home. Most of them only had a blanket over their body to shelter against the cold. The final block to the motel was a steep climb and I was trying to catch my breath when I reach the motel reception area.

My half day San Diego trip was cancelled due to insufficient demand. So I spent the afternoon exploring the town. I noticed that there are also quite a lot of homeless people sleeping beside the sidewalks of offices and department stores. Like Saturday, the town was rather quiet, not many cars on the road. I like the slow pace of life here. No rushing at all. However, I do not know what it will be like on Monday when it is a work day. Despite Christmas being just around the corner, there are not much decorations in shopping complexes or on the streets at all. Even at the motel where I stayed, not a single Christmas tree was spotted.

I bought some used quality CDs at rather reasonable prices. I think many things are much cheaper here (after conversion) compared to back home. However, made in China products here are more expensive after conversion. Well, if you are earning US$, I think most things are cheap if you don't do the conversion.

I have been eating non approved food for the past three days. Of course it tastea good, compared to my normal plain no salt, no oil and no sugar diet. Here I take mainly vegetarian diet, so there will be some amount of suger, salt and oil. I also eat vegie salads on my own. I find the weather cold especially in the night, my body rather weakened as compared to my pre-cancer days. Rodeway Inn is quite a decent hotel and I find the room rather big and clean and they also provide free wifi access. Tomorrow morning, I will be going to the Gerson Clinic at Tijuana at 8.30am to start my therapy. I have also been sleeping a lot and resting. I am tired from the travelling but my health is good at the moment.

An Eating Trip

I am not afraid of tomorrow, for I have seen yesterday and I love today.
William Allen White quotes

I thought I thank you for all your comments on yesterday's post.

Well, I did have a good sleep but it was such a short one. I got up at about 1am local time, about 3 hours of sleep but when I got up, I thought it was already morning but it was not. Then I could not sleep the whole nite and waited till about 5am before I could sleep again but only to wake up again at about 7.15am. Went to a 7-11, Deli shop and Ralph's Groceries. Bought lots of organic food and even after the conversion into Malaysian currency, it was still cheaper here. Took mainly vegetables salads and fruits but I keep getting hungry.

After I came back, I made lunch and then spend the whole afternoon sleeping. Jet lag I guess. By the time I woke up and after my bath, it's time again for a meal. It's sounds like an eating trip. I am hungry. The cold weather made walking around downtown a little challenging.

Tomorrow, I will be taking a half day tour of San Diego. This is the quickest way I think I can see San Diego with the little time I have. Hopefully, I would recover from my jet lag by then.

Greetings From San Diego!

I have never traveled so many hours non-stop in a single day. The trip to San Diego took me 25 hours including two transits. I am now blogging this post from my motel, Rodeway Inn in downtown San Diego. By the time I reached my motel, it was almost 7.30pm local time and the temperature sure seems less than 14°C and coupled with the wind blowing, it was cold. I was also famished. Getting vegetarian food is also a problem and in the end I settled for Lebanese food. I had Hummus with pita bread and Fattoush, a Lebanese vegetarian salad. Of course, the food I took is not approved but I had no choice. I took the least damaging foods.

Then I came back to the motel, had a quick bath, post this blog and straight to bed. Well, I hope to give you some more updates tomorrow.

All Ready To Go!

Tomorrow I will be flying off to San Diego via Hong Kong and LA. So I will try and blog if I get Internet access during transit and while at the Hotel. I would be able to blog at the Clinic in Mexico. So possibly for the next two days, I may not be able to blog and would try and update whenever possible.

I have just finished packing, sort of last minute. Maybe I am very relaxed, although I am looking forward to see downtown San Diego. Maybe also because I am familar with the Gerson Protocol, so I can afford to relax a bit.

Many of my friends have called/SMSed with get well wishes and some even took time off to visit me. Thank you all and I am grateful to have friends like you who responded in my hour of need.

I am also excited at the same time to visit the Clinic in Tijuana, Mexico. I heard so much about the Clinic and now to experience firsthand. I hope to learn new things there and understand the Gerson Protocol better not just for my own benefit and hopefully be able to help those who wants to follow this therapy later. In sharing, I am also helping myself.

I will be back on 23 December 2010 just in time to celebrate Christmas.

All Systems Go

Four Lessons on Life
1. Never take down a fence until you know why it was put up. 2. If you get too far ahead of the army, your soldiers may mistake you for the enemy. 3. Don't complain about the bottom rungs of the ladder they helped to get you higher. 4. If you want to enjoy the rainbow, be prepared to endure the storm.

Yes, I have missed on day of posting yesterday and I was really busy. I will also keep my post short today. So far, all systems go.

Since I have changed my local organic coffee powder to that from USA, the smell of the coffee as I was boiling the coffee solution for my enema is so aromatic that it can put Starbucks coffee to shame. And what a waste you might say. Yucks, better not talk about it!

In my early days of my cancer therapy, I have only concentrated on the physical aspects. Of course overtime, my friends and from books, I realised to solve the cancer problem, there is more to it. Here is an interesting article on cancer.

Cancer Can Be Cured by Andreas Moritz
To discover and understand the physical causes of cancer you will first need to let go of the idea that cancer is a disease. In our modern world, we have learned to go more by the superficial appearances and less by the rather concealed larger picture of things. It is in the nature of life that for every symptom there is an underlying cause, yet the cause lies hidden and seems to be unrelated to the symptom. Purely mechanistic approaches to treating the body, as they are applied in the system of allopathic medicine, usually fall short in locating and healing these hidden causes. They will remain undetected unless we begin to view the body as a process that is organized by a superb combination of energy and information or intelligence rather than an assembly of different parts as can be found in a machine.

It resembles middle age technology to treat the body as if it were just made of cells and molecules. Our modern technologies and computers were all derived from the principles of information and energy as discovered by quantum physics, yet when it comes to treating the human body we are still relying mostly on the old, outdated Newtonian principles of understanding the nature of life. It is relatively easy to understand the way the human body operates if we were to apply the principles of quantum physics.

You as consciousness, soul or spirit are the only true source of that energy and information that run your body. Your presence in the body and what you do, eat, drink, feel and think determine how well your genes are able to control and sustain your physical existence. If you (the conscious presence) are no longer present in your body, the energy and information is withdrawn from every cell. We know this to be physical death. Seen from a superficial point of view, you could conclude that death has turned the body into a disordered heap of useless particles. Of course, if you had a wider perspective of death you would be able to see it as the beginning of new life; all the atoms that previously comprised these cells have simply relocated themselves to assemble once again in new forms, such as air, water, soil, plants, fruits, animals or other human beings. Therefore, life does not end with death; only the form changes. Besides, your consciousness remains unaffected by all that, because it is not physical and cannot be destroyed.

Now, if you only partially withdrew your energy and purposeful connectedness (intelligence) from some parts of your body, would those parts not move into disarray and chaotic behavior? This is what medicine calls disease, meaning, you are no longer in ease or alignment with the orderly fashion in which the body normally operates. However, as you will begin to realize, disease is only an illusion of perception. Like death, disease is nothing but the provider of new life. Yet unlike death, disease offers us the opportunity to restore our life while remaining in this physical form. Cancer only strikes when a part or parts of us are not alive anymore, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Cancer can resurrect these numbed, suppressed or congested areas, whether they are physical or non-physical in nature.

The resurrection, which begins with an increased attention to these dead zones of our life, can occur in a number of ways. We may gradually become aware how afraid or negligent we are of a particular body part, the body as a whole, our future or the past, nature, food, other people, the future of our planet, , , etc. Suddenly, we may begin to realize how deeply we have harbored intense negative emotions toward others or us, or we notice why we allowed certain foods, beverages or drugs such as painkillers, steroids and antibiotics to contaminate and congest our beautiful body. Cancer is a wakeup call prompting us to take our life back where it is no more. The alarm bell that sounds to wake us up sounds painfully loud, which is good because we are more likely to respond to physical pain than to emotional pain.

The ‘disease’ cancer occurs only where channels or ducts of circulation and elimination are consistently blocked for a long time. I have dealt with this subject in great detail in my latest book, "Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism". Obviously, there are not just physical causes behind the Cancer phenomenon, and so I have addressed also it's emotional and spiritual causes.
