I've recently (as of the end of January 2022) upgraded my #lovecanceraway journey to #beingthehealthiestIcanbe (in body, mind, and spirit) journey and as part of this mindset change, I want to share some of the books and other resources that I have found so very helpful in now taking on being the healthiest I can be in body, mind, and spirit. If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with the "Big C," I heartily encourage [...]
NOTE: I started writing the following blog posts a several weeks ago, and have now updated it as my health journey continues. Shortly after writing A Road Less Traveled blog post, and no doubt influenced by it, I started to realize that my path isn't strictly alternative or holistic. True, a lot of my current focus is on altering my nutrition program including a number of supplements to enhance the program. Also, IV vitamin C therapy [...]

Thursday I received my eleventh treatment which has been slowly increased to the current level of [...]
M. Scott Peck opened his now famous book, The Road Less Traveled with these lines: "Life is Difficult. This is a great truth, one of the greatest truths." Who am I to argue? I'm now on one of those difficult, yes, challenging, parts of life, as I deal with a recent diagnosis of prostate cancer. But what I want to borrow from Mr. Peck is not so much his opening lines as the title of the [...]

If you've found yourself at this blog post, you probably already know that I've been diagnosed with prostate cancer and that I'm using a holistic/complementary approach to treating it that I refer to as 'loving my cancer' away. If you want the full story about the health and well-being journey I'm on, I suggest you start by viewing the video and/or reading my GoFundMe page. Also, please know how much I appreciate all the contributions including [...]
