Brian's Story

1. Removal of Brain tumor
2. Post surgically waited 6 weeks for the Decadron taper to be complete. He was still taking 1000mg Keppra daily.
3. A complete Blood panel for Bill which was a complete picture of all of his blood chemistry (this included urinanalysis).
It showed a slight imbalance in his ANA reading but other than that everything appeared to be normal.
4. We purchased a wheatgrass juicer from Bestchoiceproducts.com which can be found on EBay ($54.95) and ordered a pound of wheatgrass to be delivered via FEDEX every other week ($26) www.gourmetgreens.com . We have slowly increased it to 2 oz in AM and 2 lbs of wheatgrass per week (19.00 weekly) (Fresh wheatgrass is the most potent). Dr. Ann Wigmore taught me about the wheatgrass therapy. It is a protocol which I used when I had cancer in 1988 and it seemed to really work. If anyone is interested here are some good books which she wrote on the subject. She passed away in a fire about 15 years ago. The books are; "The wheatgrass therapy" and "Be your own doctor" which does not put down the medical community it talks about our connection to nature. She wrote many books on the subject but those are the 2 we used.
5. He began juicing and drinking ½ oz of wheatgrass every morning. Subsequently, he has discovered that it works best when he takes it at night rather than in the morning with the Keppra.
6. He went to a vegetarian diet including the avoidance of caffeine, refined sugars, and wheat products
7. He began taking intravenous Vitamin C treatments weekly (he is currently taking 200grams per week) along with a regimen of supplemental vitamins
(I can provide a list of their names and quantities if you want)
8, In February 7 months post surgery he began an 8 week taper of the Keppra drug. He is currently taking 250mg every other day. I have attached the taper schedule to this email
9. He began taking vitamin B-17 100mcg in AM and PM he is slowly increasing to 1000mcg. He was of 7/8/08) taking 500mcg daily. .He is currently 1.5 years after surgery taking 100 mg of Keppra daily {1/09 }which he seems to still need.

10 MRI's every 3 months to track progress
11 He began hydro colon therapy in the 9th month post surgery. I felt that it was important to wait for him to get physically stronger before we went after what I believe to be the source of his tumor, impurities caused by a blockage in his colon. He was having symptoms of rectal bleeding and a sensation of "razor blades in his ureter" during urination. After the first colonic his symptoms disappeared and haven't returned. He has done 6 colonics to date and will be doing at 3 more beginning next week. He is taking acidophilus to replace the favorable flora and fauna in the intestines after each colonic
