hippocratic oath and a rant

i know i must have posted this before, but it endlessly drives me crazy...

this part of the hippocratic oath:

"I will prescribe regimens for the good of my patients according to my ability and my judgment and never do harm to anyone.

I will give no deadly medicine to any one if asked, nor suggest any such counsel; and similarly I will not give a woman a pessary to cause an abortion.

But I will preserve the purity of my life and my arts."

so the Greek in me understands this. the HUMAN i am understands this.

what's perplexing is the amount of bullshit doctors are giving us today...poisoning us to DEATH with chemotherapy, radiation, and other drugs and then having the gall to say the CANCER did it?

when we know for a fact that chemo is poison, or your asses wouldn't be walking around us injecting us in hazmat suits and gloves...

but this is what we do now. put poisons in everything, poison people through drugs, and then poison their minds as well, thinking that it will help us, cure us, when all it's doing is speeding up our demise.

i'm not naive, but i was so drugged up during chemo, i was dumb as fuck. 

when my onc. suggested an allo transplant without even pushing to go for more biopsies to see what was going on inside my body...i had at least one onc who pushed me to go for a biopsy.

the third one i saw told me, oh we wouldn't even have PUT YOU THROUGH AN AUTO STEM CELL TRANSPLANT!

really???? did i tell you guys that she then had the audacity to tell me that there's 100s of clinical trials i can do before i get to the point of an allogenic transplant. indefinitely being poisoned, as a guinea pig, every two weeks, and she even said i can do this through my inevitable pregnancy (because my body was strong when they tested me)...

even though the other doctors said i was likely to menopause immediately after my stem cell transplant.

i told that oncologist that she would never touch me if i ever became pregnant. (i swear, i would rip someone's head off at the thought of poisoning an innocent soul??)

also, my husband tried to fight this very special onc. by saying, my wife is not a guinea pig.

thus began our search for knowledge.

so please, ask me anything.

know that i will NEVER do chemo, radiation or any other kind of transplant ever again.

please. PLEASE. educate yourselves. 

this is YOUR life. not your ONCs life! 

you can't possibly get better with poison, in sterile environments. 

how do we not see this?

i'm not forcing you to go through what i did, i've chosen my path.

we all have to choose our own paths, but do this wisely. 

think about the ones you love, and think about YOU and YOUR LIFE!

you. have. time!

love me,

(this was me during my 11th chemo..that led into "relapse" which led me to "have to" go through ICE chemo and BEAM chemo and an autologous stem cell transplant. i was too drugged up all the time (obv.!) to use my full mental capabilities to use this research. when i questioned doctors, they asked me if i was one in a snarky attitude. chemo made me stupid and i couldn't do much except be sick to my stomach and i don't wish it on anyone, ever. of course, they're going to tell you you've relapsed-- CHEMO IS NOT THE CURE, it adds more ACID to your already ACIDIC pH balance!)

a little note:

i wish i had known all of this stuff when i got diagnosed. my life would have been changed dramatically as i wouldn't have gone through 9 months of chemo and chosen to boost my immune system and detox my body instead.

this may help you along your path, whichever one you choose.

while i was forced, scared out of my pants, and pretty much thrown into chemotherapy, i wish i would have used the time to research everything.

what i found out later:

• there are so many other therapies, natural ones, that could be used. of course, the government would deem those therapies as fraudulent, quackery...and say that there is no proof. there was and there is proof-- but the government has been going into true healers practices since before 1950 and getting rid of all the paperwork and case studies. do they want you to get well, or to be a lifetime consumer of the medical b.s. of brand new medicine until you drop dead? 
• the world is overpopulated and you are just a statistic.
• doctors make bonuses when they refer you to chemo!!
• instead of boosting your immune system to fight off cancer, or any other sickness, they purposely add chemo, which is acid, so it could kill off ALL cells (good and bad.) more chemo = more relapses.
• The American Medical Association is a labor union.
• GE is a member of the cancer industry and own NBC.
• why would they tell you chemo is good? because if they don't, all the Cancer Societies that take good people's money for research would go under, and billions a year would be left to the people. 
• the AMA/FDA cannot patent and sell something that is natural!!

please research, 

you have time

and

you matter.

what i know NOW!

like any normal person,

i struggled with my weight

i remember weighing 116 pounds at 16

but having a pretty much on the go fast food diet

especially when i got to college.

i gained the weight that 

everyone gains when they begin

a new relationship 

and at one point hit 170 pounds, 

though people don't like to believe me. I have proof.

what i wish i had known was

how to treat my body better

and how to FEED my body better.

it craved nourishment and i didn't know.

the photo way above was me in January 2010...

i'm just going to leave this tiny.

2006. 160 pounds i would say...

no health problems EVER!

always active, working, on the go..

my diet could have been way better!

was on birth control...

stopped that right after this photo was taken

because it was making me way too sick.

i had no idea about cleansing and detoxes, 

or anything of the sort.

i ate when i was hungry and the food

was never nutrient dense.

(above taken January 2010)

i don't like showing bikini photos to anyone

but i feel as if this proves a point.

someone "fat" can be totally healthy

someone "skinny" can be totally sick.

ironically, i was gaining weight before

i was diagnosed.

sometimes i think the diagnosis was wrong.

everyone's got cancer cells inside them every day

but they "got me" and scared me.

also ironically, i had an pneumonia, 

which made me lose weight 

pretty much the second before they diagnosed me. 

i was around 140 pounds in november 2012.

 ^ this picture was taken at the end of 2011.
healthy, happy. eating great food that was good for me.
who knew?

^ right before diagnosis, the beginning of pneumonia...
still 140 pounds.

^ during chemo and right before stem cell transplant...
a steady 136 pounds the whole time going through chemo...

because of the steroids and the fact that they wouldn't allow me fruits or vegetables.

at all.

^ and finally,
feeling happy and healthy again
128 pounds, 6 months post stem cell transplant
finally having learned the wonders of detox,
back to my regular food routine
and wanting to learn more.


so do your research
your body is your temple
we are just energy in this shell
but how will you spread your positive energy
if you're sick?

love me,
the globetrotting gamine

crafting my blog

this is me.
i did not make this photo extra large as to not scare you.
i am fresh out of a shower here so don't judge.
my husband (Love of My Life or LML) insists I take a photo of my hair every week since after my stem cell transplant for hodgkin's lymphoma.

i was thinking about my blog yesterday, and decided i need to make it more organized.
but alas, my thoughts are not organized.
there is not only a few things that interest me, but a TEAM of things that do.

So I came up with days of the week I can break my main likes into.

Mondays- Health issues/topics based on wellness and nutrition.
Tuesdays- Crafts
Wednesdays- all things Travel
Thursdays- Inspirations-- people, clothes, life
Fridays- Recipes, most likely juice recipes (you can tell by my instagram :) )
Saturdays/Sundays- misc.

I hope you stick around-- I talk a lot, I may come off way too passionate about a lot of things but this is life. my life. thanks for reading and i hope you stick around <3

love me,

your immune system, detoxing and cancer

What Foods Help Your Immune System:

• sesame tahini
• dark chocolate
• pumpkin seeds
• turmeric
• melatonin
• broccoli (has indol-3 carbind)
• aloe vera
• astragalus
• essiac tea
• (any organic fruit and vegetable, especially if they are juiced)
• garlic (stronger and faster acting than any antibiotic on the market)

What Activities Help your Immune System?:
exercising, playing in the sun without chemical-laden sunscreen, swimming in the ocean or sea, sweating, doing things that make you happy, dancing, rebounding.

Where is your Immune System Located?: 
about 80% of your immune system is located in your GUT!! That's right-- stomach, liver and intestines, and colon. Be kind to them!

How to Feel Better When You're Sick: 
starve the parasites in your system that are making you sick!
 Here's how!:

• no alcohol, bread, dairy, vinegars, mushrooms, sugar, refined or processed anything! (that's what feeds the parasites)
• kill the parasites by using pau d'arco, cloves, cinnamon sticks, fennel, bee propolis as herbs in tea or in food. they don't like these things.
• oxygenate blood-- organic olive oil, flax seed oil, seasweeds, and spirulina in organic juices and smoothies
• alkalise your system: water with lemon, or distilled water with lots of lemon!
• boost your immune system: cats claw, echinacea, essiac tea, astragalus, chlorella, (all purify blood, antibacterial properties) maybe you can throw in a cleanse (I have used Life Renewal's My First Cleanse and then Paragone. You just take them as directed and wait to poop. It's not crazy at all. If you want crazy, I can show you pictures, lol)
• build up the good guys-- use a quality probiotic, which allows good bacteria into your gut so it fights off the bad bacteria you may have lost from a less than stellar diet
• detox- cleanses at health food stores, hydrotherapy sessions, sauna sessions (SWEATING!), rebounding (jumping on the trampoline!) 
• always drink a LOT of water to get your bowels moving so everything goes back into sync. you should be able to poop easily 1-2 times PER DAY! if you're not doing this at all, I would recommend a series of hydrotherapy sessions- they're super safe, and they get rid of everything stuck in your intestines/gut.

At this time, I've researched that it's best to up your immune system by fresh, organic produce, juicing, and all natural veggie broths that you make yourself. Nothing from a can.

So, You've Heard of Superfoods, Right?

They raise your immune system AND seratonin production, and LOWER inflammation. (that last part is key!) They also enhance sexuality, cleanse and alkalize the body.

Not too shabby, right?

What products count as superfoods?

• cacao
• goji berries
• maca powder
• hemp
• spirulina
• bee products
• camu berry
• sea vegetables
• medicinal mushrooms

Did you go through hell with chemo the way I did? With all Cancer Patients, or even HEALTHY patients-- detox is key. Aside from pooping, hydrotherapy, colonics and sweating there are so many things you can do! Don't count out intestinal cleanses, as well as cleanses for the liver, gallbladder, parasites and DEFINITELY chemical and heavy metal cleanses!! 

• Change your teeth fillings if their amalgam...mercury!!
• notice the chem trails in our skies? those aren't supposed to be there, they're spraying chemicals on us and nature.
• mercury in fish
• fluoride
• pollution in a heavily populated area-- those are all things cleanses are NECESSARY for.

I want to ask you one question: How many products do you put on you daily? Ready?

• you brush your teeth and gargle with mouthwash-- how many ingredients are in those?
• how many ingredients are in your deodorant?
• how many ingredients in your makeup, each product you use on your face?
• how many ingredients in your perfume/cologne/hairspray/hair products?
• what about hand and body lotions? how many ingredients do you recognize in those?
• did you wash your clothes with DETERGENT and FABRIC SOFTENER and DRYER sheets? What's in those?
• You didn't even drink anything yet- what are you drinking?
• Did you eat yet? What are you eating?
• Do you smoke?
• Do you drink alcohol?
• Did you walk around outside today?
• Ever take medicine? Antibiotics? Over the counter meds?
• What about vaccinations?

Then answer me why "cancer" is now 1 out of every 3 people instead of 1 out of 1000s?? Isn't it weird that right after the development of the "American Medical Association" was born the Pharmaceutical corporations? Isn't it weird that in the early 1900s during this, HYDROTHERAPY MACHINES were pulled OUT OF DOCTORS OFFICES??

How come very few people know what enemas and colonics/hydrotherapy really do?

They don't want you to know.

Isn't it weird that very few people died from c. back then? Do you think it's ok for someone to squish your boobs or lymphnodes until you're in screaming pain, or vaccum your nipples to see if you discharge? How about you stick an arm or a penis in one of those machines and tell me what it does to that body part? Last I heard, no one should be hurting their bodies in barbaric ways, because THAT causes problems!

Answer me, why all the testing to see if you have cancer, and what does it really do to you?

Answer me, do you know all the side effects from each and every medicine you take?

Do you know that cancer is over-diagnosed for statistical improvement so that people like us can feel safe with what the doctors are telling us?

Did you ever hear a doctor say that the chemo being done to your body is curing your cancer? Why do they only use the word RESPONDING? WTF? Because they don't know if you will be cured-- but if you build up your immune system instead of killing it with chemo, and then detox religiously, your body may have a shot.

I know not a lot of people will care to read this, or respond. Those of you who have, thank you. Those of you who think all that stuff up there is just fine, I'm sorry. If you come out of your bubble and research just a little bit you will see that it isn't. 

hi, it's me.

(that's me, exactly 6 months after my autologous stem cell transplant)

i am very well aware that my blog is titled, 'the globetrotting gamine'.

that's me, always has been, always will be.

i may have multiple likes, dislikes, skills, extra crazy textbook/non textbook knowledge but i do still wander the world.

that's pretty much what we all do.

so i thank you for sticking by me, while i copy texts out of really old books in order to hopefully HELP some of you, because cancer is pretty scary and it sucks.

but it's only scary if you let it be. and your doctors are probably pretty dead set on that. mine were.

you have time to make your decisions, to research, to figure out what you really want to do.

your life is in your hands, and it took me a long time to realize that.

sometimes, even if they're your doctors, you have to cut the toxic people out of your life, especially now.

doctors, friends, even family-- no one's perfect, and no one's family is perfect but there is no reason to spend your time more upset about needless information thrown at you.

you are not a statistic. you are a human. you are a soul. a big ball of stardust and energy just here for right now, to complete what you were sent here for and to move on.

don't let anyone make you feel like you are not worth it. i don't care who they are.

they don't know squat about you.

think about it.

people only know what you tell them. then, they hear only what they want to hear.
especially the toxic ones who have nothing better to do then make you feel teeny, because they themselves feel teeny.

that's not your problem. you have your own set of problems, your own karma to work out.

i pray a lot. i pray for different things. i had been praying for years that toxic people simply fall away from my life so i could make way for good people who would love me, support me, encourage me as much as i do them. i got really lucky...

you cut the old ties and so many great things come out of doing it. you don't have to wish people ill will. i never did. i want them to be happy enough in their own lives to not think of me enough to wish me harm. i picture them surrounded with light and love and float-y goodness.

i know it sounds hokey, but it's healed me.

this will heal you, too. it's a stepping stone.
