Gratefulness to the three wonderful men who are guiding me on this journey

This post is as much about gratefulness to the three wonderful men who are guiding me on this journey, as it is meant to bring comfort to anyone fighting disease. May it bring hope to many.

On January 27, I met with Dr. Hemang Parekh in Paris. Dr. Hemang is an Ayurvedic doctor, and I went to him looking for a natural way of healing from cancer, following the advice of two great Lamas, Sherab Gyaltsen Rinpoche, who emphatically told me NOT to take chemotherapy and to follow Ayurveda, and Lama Ole Nydahl, who after listening to what western doctors and Rinpoche were advising, reminded me that a Buddha’s advice is the wisest of all.



Dr. Hemang gave me dietary advises and herbal supplements. He added that some of his patients had been given months to live by western oncologists, and yet they were alive and thriving several years later, because they had simply changed their diet.

I was coming from months of scary meetings with several doctors who all had only one advise to give: chemo! Poison your body or you’ll die. That was the consensus. Still is probably.

The last thing I wanted to do was take more medications. The pain killers they gave me after my double mastectomy had either made me sick or taken me on a confusing mental trip, but none had gotten rid of the pain. I realized I had to make a choice: I could either surrender to the fear the doctors were trying hard to drill into me, or I had to be brave, take all my courage and defy the cancer status quo and follow my intuition.



The leap was not without challenges. I cried so much out of pure fear and despair. I longed for help, for someone to help with research, to hold my hand, hug me, tell me everything will be alright, but I had only myself, a Buddha, and a gentle, quiet, and kind Indian doctor. 

-I needed no one else-


There began a journey of learning to stand up for myself, to make myself my own priority, to care for my body like I didn’t even know was possible.

I always loved to cook, so that made everything easier. I didn’t ease into the new diet, I jumped right in and decided it is possible to heal without chemicals, poisons and all that our poor western doctors (within the limits of their actually budding science) consider lifesaving.

Last Wednesday, I received the results of my last PET Scan, 6 months after my first diagnosis, 4 after my surgery. The results came back negative. In practical terms, this means I am cancer free. 
I don’t know what the future will bring. I am only responsible for what I can do myself, and I assume gladly such responsibility.

Here, you can see a picture of the supplements I take every day. From dr. Hemang I got Pratishakti, to prevent metastasis, 16/day; Fibron to get rid of toxins, 9/day; Metaboost, self-explanatory, 4/day, Chandrikaras, to help with the induced menopause symptoms, 16/day; Brainto, 4/day. I also take 2 capsules of curcumin with black pepper, 1 capsule vitamin D-3, 1 of Indome-3-carbinol (to control hormones), 20 mg CDB and a droplet of CBD oil before bed. 55 pills a day of 100% natural products,  100% meals made with 100% whole, natural, fresh ingredients, meditation and yoga. That’s the only  protocol that makes sense to me.



May all beings be healthy, may those who need to heal do so promptly, may all beings be safe.
