One of the most profound books ever written regarding healing in the Atonement is the book: Bodily Healing and the Atonement by Dr. T.J. McCrossan (reedited by Roy H. Hicks and Kenneth E. Hagin) Originally published in 1930, Dr. McCrossan uses the original Greek in the New Testament and the Septuagint (Greek translation of the Old Testament) to prove that God?s original plan for believers was divine healing. When I first read the book, I admit it was a tough read. I had difficulty bring th
Having some difficulty swallowing at present - mainly juice and water today - but tomorrow I?ll try to get some Ensures down as I am travelling to Bristol for a five-day retreat at Penny Brohn Cancer Care. I?ll keep a record of what happens and enter it either there (if I have access to the net) or when I get back, in which case I?ll go quiet probably until next Saturday. I expect some therapies, some dietary advice, some healing and meditation, consultation and maybe some dialogue with other
Just an FYI to everyone ? There's an email circulating around called "Cancer Update from Johns Hopkins" which makes false claims about how cancer spreads and recommends methods for treating the disease. This message is a HOAX. See link below. http://www.snopes.com/medical/disease/cancerupdate.asp Snopes has been the most reliable online resource for debunking email myths (Bill Gates giving away money, etc...) If you receive such an email, please debunk it to the thread. MZ

For coming out last night and ?rocking? with us at our first Time to Rock event. Last night we held a bride appreciation night along with the Making Memories Foundation, (they run the Brides Against Breast Cancer gown events), to give local brides a night off from wedding planning. The night featured a signature drink, the Blushing Bride, made with Support Her Vodka courtesy of the Making Memories Foundation. We had a chance to chat with lots of our local members and fellow DC wedding blog
I remember the first time someone put one of these rubber pink awareness bracelets on my wrist. I was at a friend?s for a New Year?s Eve party. I?d just completed my first treatment protocol (a partial mastectomy followed by seven weeks of radiation therapy) and I?d started taking my Tamoxifen. I wasn?t quite ready to call myself a survivor but I knew I really was one. At one point in the evening, my friend simply walked up to me, put the bracelet on my wrist, and told me I was strong and I was
Ovaries are the small almond shaped glands that attach to the uterus via the fallopian tubes. They produce eggs and hormones. According to the American Cancer Society, a woman?s risk of getting ovarian cancer in her lifetime is 1 in 71. The National Cancer Institute estimates that in 2008 there will be 21,250 new cases diagnosed and 15,520 deaths. Most Ovarian Cancer develops from: Epithelial Cells: surface cells covering the ovary, the most commonly diagnosed ovarian cancer Germ Cells:

In the March issue of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, a new study of Italian asbestos cement workers has found that risk of some asbestos-related cancers decreases after the exposure ends, while the risk of other cancers continue to rise. The risk of lung cancer among workers exposed to asbestos began to fall twenty to forty years after the exposure ended. The risk of pleural mesothelioma, which attacks the membrane surrounding the lungs, was highest among those with the longest period
Compression hose, support hose, ted hose?.. these all make you think of horrbile looking socks that your grandmother use to wear. It?s true, she might have worn something like that?. back in the day. Please step with me into the present. Times have changed. So has the make up of compression hose. Todays stockings have so many options, you can?t tell between normal socks and the ones that have compression. All sorts of colors, different lengths, and different sheerness. So, I?m sure you
Misery loves company, so they say. That?s why support groups are so popular. Those people UNDERSTAND the whole gamut of emotions you?re going through because they are going through them too, or they have been there, done that. If you?re looking for a forum that deals specifically with Prostate Cancer, check out Us Too.
At this sad time, I am thoroughly thankful for the outpouring of love and support I?ve received from friends, family, friends of family, colleagues, and neighbors. It?s touching to know that so many people are thinking of us and keeping us in their prayers. But, I have to admit, it is exhausting to tell the same story over and over and over again each time someone asks, ?How?s your dad?? It?s like reopening a wound each time it starts to scab. I have begun being vague and simply answering,
Have you ever witnessed a Japanese Tea Ceremony? It?s centered around the ceremony part and while tea is present, the art of serving it takes center stage. One of the things I read about the positive effects of drinking green tea, in addition to its antioxidant power, is the benefit of the pure joy of sitting down for a ?cuppa.? This is the primary reason I try to sneak one in at every opportunity. At the gym, I brew a cup of hot tea and pour it over a big cup of ice cubes and sip it while I am
On any give day you might find yourself speaking to a survivor when things suddenly go sour. Especially if you are married to the guy or gal. Let me share with you what just happened to me. Scene: I?m in the kitchen preparing breakfast for the kids before school. My husband calls from his hotel room in DC where he has been on business for the last three days. After the niceties (?Everyone say ?Hi? to Daddy!? and ?How?d you sleep?? and ?What?s on tap for today??) here?s what basically transpi

It is estimated that around one in three humans will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime; so unfortunately, the chances of being affected by the disease ? directly or indirectly ? are fairly high. Indeed, although cancer can affect all ages, genders and social groups, the chances of getting cancer does increase depending on lifestyle and age; two-thirds of those diagnosed with cancer are aged 65 or over and it is much rarer in children and young people. Of course, it is possible to r

Across the United States there are many non-profits doing great things for women with breast cancer. If you are undergoing treatment for breast cancer and live in the Southern California area, then you should definitely know about Breast Cancer Survivors. Since 1998, this non-profit has helped people who are fighting breast cancer and are in need of financial support just to get by. You can find more information about them at www.bcsurvivors.org.

Reese Witherspoon attended the Sixth Annual Avon Walk for Breast Cancer on Sunday, May 4 in Washington D.C. and while she looked adorable in her pink tee, I think we see a wee bit of a baby bump! Are Reese and Jake Gyllenhaal expecting? More pics after the jump I'm pushing it aren't I? Fine, she's most likely not pregnant and that's not much of a bump, hell most of us probably look more preggo than that after we drink a rootbeer, but I can suggest it can't I? Anyway, Reese's duty
