Tim,
You have an excellent point about the "rubber band" effect.
When I was sent to UNC last May to have Dr. Pruthi make an evaluation for my chances of keeping my bladder, I had no idea what would be found during biopsy. When Dr. Pruthi's assistant woke me from anesthesia, her words to me were, "Rosemary, your bladder looks great." Those words were like nectar from the Gods.
That was 6 weeks after my last TUR.
You all may think me strange or demented, but part of my protocol was to add some common yard weeds, such as dandelion and plaintain , to my teas. I picked my weeds with knowledge, however. On Sundays, I would take a little bag and walk down the roadside and pull my weed/herb as I strolled. This gave me exercise, also.
I make no wild claims about herbs curing cancer, I am not naive. But, I do believe that when we have proper knowledge of Mother nature and her proferrings, she is waiting there to help us promote our own health and well-being.
Gotta run. Have a good day!
Rosemary
