Latest Activities

Thursday night we ate at the Long Beach Sea Food Restaurant. We had chilli crab, steamed fish, sauteed kai-lan, and kang-kong with chilli paste. Almond bean-curd with longan and sweet yam topped off the night! Stay tuned for pics of the dishes! Here's just one recipe for chilli crab.

Nina tried the sauteed kai-lan for the first time and loved it with the rice!

On Monday I began the Liver Flush.

This particular protocol has been significant for my Mom. She had gallstones in her CT scan back in January 2007. After she began Dr. Gonzalez's protocol and did the Liver Flush in the treatment, the subsequent CT scan confirmed that the gallstones had indeed been flushed out! Incredible. Both Dr. Wong & the radiologist were both amazed and requested the Liver Flush protocol. An alternative, non-invasive, cost-effective protocol for treating gallstones. It is amazing thing that a simpler version has been around since the 1920's and yet people undergo surgery to treat gallstones!

The first four days were not bad. Apple juice with Phosphoric acid between meals. Yesterday (the fifth day), I adhered to the two Acid Calcium's before breakfast and lunch. This step is omitted in the Liver Flush website, but is prescribed by Dr. Gonzalez's's version.

I went to have lunch with Dad. We had dim sum at the American Club. The food was good, but the conversation was excellent. I look forward to another such lunch with him.

Unfortunately, due to neighboring construction (there's construction everywhere in Singapore, it's amazing), water was interrupted in the evening. This put a kink in the plans for my parents' coffee enemas, Nina's bath, washing the strawberries for dinner, the effects of the epsom salts, and general evening routine activities. Such events always remind you of how much running water is taken for granted. If you want specifics, email me.

During this time, Mom & Dad both became interested in a book Mom received from one of her friends. Cancer Naturally Cured. This book is special because 1) it provides a local Singaporean perspective upon cancer, 2) prior to our trip here, Erin and I spoke about finding a book that provides inspirational stories about LIVING cancer survivors instead of from those who have died - the suggestion at the help desk at Barnes and Nobles was Lance Armstrong's book, 3) it is newly published (July 2007) - not even amazon carries it.

Most importantly, it draws comparisons about common characteristics that living cancer survivors have. Although I have read only a few pages of this book, my parents are both captivated by it. Please let me know if you're interested in this book. I have provided one link earlier by the son of the author (Betty Khoo) and here is another link of an interview with Betty from Radio Singapore International.

Thanks for reading!
