A Little More "Normal" Life

| | Comments (3)

Luc started back to school on March 23rd.  He was so excited to start back and be a little more normal.  He is only going to his core classes and to his mentoring class.  I take him at 11:00 in the morning and he gets out at 2:30 in the afternoon.  It's almost like having a kindergartner again.  ;)  He is so happy to be back amongst his friends and being able to do his schoolwork at school.

Luc also started on a nutritional program about 2 weeks ago.  I had been thinking so much about what we could do to get all of those awful toxins out of his system and get his body functioning the way it should.  His metabolism has been messed up since his first chemo 4 years ago.  I was mentioning this concern to my brother, Bruce.  Bruce told me about a program he has been doing for over a year that has totally changed his body and his outlook on life.  I have always tried to counsel with the Lord and discern what is right for Luc.  There have been many people that have suggested many different things to help, but there have been very few that I have felt were right for him.  The one my brother told me about felt right.  After discussing it with both Ron and Luc, and praying, we decided to go ahead and get him started.  After just 5 days Luc was expressing how much better he felt and how even his attitude about things was changing.  He has had some de-tox symptoms, nothing terrible, and he has lost 6 lbs so far.  He is so excited about it and wants to tell everyone how great he feels.  It makes me feel so happy to see him becoming healthy again.

An MRI is scheduled for April 15th.  We appreciate any prayers offered in his behalf.  Also, please remember my cousin, Stewart Olsen, in your prayers.  Six months ago, after 6 months of treatment, he was cancer-free. Last week at his routine six month check, the doctors found the cancer to be growing again.  He has Hodgkin's Lymphoma. 

Thank you so much for all your support and for celebrating our successes with us!

I'm glad he's back at school. I'd love to hear more about his new nutrition program. I love that kind of stuff.

I'm so sorry about your cousin.

I'm so glad things are going so well for you guys! We're always thinking of you and praying for you.

Glad to hear that Luc is back in school - we've been wondering how you guys are doing, so it's nice to hear things are going in a positive direction...Good Luck!!
