Day 9 of Treatment

Yesterday was a much better day for me. I received the Coley’s Therapy that knocked me off my feet on Monday, but at a lower dose. I also received the daily Vitamin C and K IV infusion and Ozone IV. I spent an hour in the Hyperbaric Chamber. I always feel so good after that treatment. Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment (HBO) helps your blood carry extra oxygen to speed your recovery. Extra oxygen can assist with healing, fighting infection, and stimulating the release of stem cells from your bone marrow. Stem cells can target injured or infected tissue and start the repair process. Cancer cells thrive in a hypoxic environment. Hyperbaric oxygen is used to overcome hypoxia. Since I felt good last night, I went for a nice walk with my son and mom along the beach. We watched the sun set. It was beautiful. It’s moments like these that I really appreciate life and God’s beautiful creations. I am blessed.

  1. We had a hyperbaric chamber at the hospital that was so underused One MD swore by it, the others never really appreciated it. It really helped wound patients. Glad your day was happy and I wish you many more 😊

  2. This is all so interesting and it’s wonderful that you are sharing your journey with all of us. I think we all feel bad when you feel bad and likewise good when you’re having a good day. You are so right about radiation. I had my annual cancer check-up and told them I had discomfort and they told me it’s from the radiation. Also, they put you in a room all by yourself and tell you it’s safe but you know what; I don’t have any facial hair and hair on my arms is slow growing so radiation does indeed affect the body. Do they keep track of your progress? Is the treatment having an effect on the tumor? I continue to pray for you and your family. It’s nice to see you happy with your little boy. How fun to be able to enjoy the water.

    1. Nancy, I will be getting an ultrasound later this week. Then we can see if tumor has shrunk and what the cancerous lymph nodes look like. I will keep you updated.

  3. Angela I hope you are doing well with the treatment. I think of you each and every day and am praying for you also. Stay strong!
