Malignant Brain Tumor

Posted on August 16, 2007 at 07:40:59 AM by Mrs. Shanker
My 20 year old son was a Sophomore in college when he was diagnosed with a Malignant Brain Tumor in Oct'06 (Glio Blastoma Multiform - Level 4). He underwent a major surgery to remove some of the tumor. The tumor blocked the flow of the brain fluid and a shunt has been placed in his head to help the flow of the fluids.

He was paralyzed on his Right side and did not talk for almost a month. After several weeks of Rehab he started to walk and talk.

As a result of the surgery
* he is having short term Memory loss
* his Vision has improved but sometimes his eyes won't focus well
* his Cognitive skills are improving rapidly but not yet completely restored
* his strength is improving but not back to original levels yet

He was given heavy doses of Radiation and Chemotherapy. He has responded extremely well to the treatment given to him. His recent MRI showed that the growth has collapsed. As a precaution we might give him 3 more chemotherapy with a reduced dosage. He is currently taking Concerta to help him focus better and Zoloft for his depression.

A sincere family friend suggested your products for detoxing him from the heavy use of medications over the past 10 months, but we do not know what products will be best for him. We also want to ensure that the bad cells don't invade and grow in him again.

Our desire and hope is to help him recover completely from this condition and enable him to lead a normal, healthy, and happy life.

We sincerely welcome your suggestions / advice.

Thank You.

Regards,
Mrs. Shanker
