This
second process began June 4, 2002 and the tumor was expelled July 11th (5
weeks). As you can see from the picture, the size of the mass was considerably
larger. This intensely magnified everything I experienced during the first
procedure. The pain was excruciating requiring me to stay bedridden for
3 1/2 weeks.

The
tumor has been expelled. The gray discoloration is an application of peroxide
immediately applied after the tumor was detached. This may look like an
open wound but is actually new, healthy tissue that has been growing simultaneously
as the tumor was being expelled.

about 5" long and 5/8" at it's thickest point.

I
visited my oncologist (one of my western medicine angels) August 24th and
it was mutually decided to wait until the area was completely healed before
another biopsy was performed. My appointment was scheduled for November
26, 2002. I went in and after examining me he exclaimed, "Ginny, I
can't help but believe that you've hit a home run here. I am optimistic
about your upcoming biopsy." On December 5th, I had an appointment
with my general surgeon (another western medicine angel). It was obvious
to me that she was surprised at what she saw. After the examination, she
removed the tissue to be biopsied. She also stated how she was anxious for
the biopsy results...
