Miracles Happen & This Natural Healing Formula Is Potent
 
Last Friday night my 14 year old German Shepherd, who has hip dysplasia, walked over to the stairs to let me know he wanted to go out like he always does. He turned to look at me and lost his back end balance and slid down about 15 stairs. It was surreal as I ran to try and grab him before falling and seemed like it all happened in slow motion. I figured for sure he would break a leg on the fall, but after laying motionless at the bottom of the stairs he got up ok. That in itself was amazing.

I figured it'd be a good idea to give him some canine buffered aspirin just in case he was having any pain and gave him a couple pills.

Saturday morning, he seemed totally fucked up. His eyes were all glossy, he wouldn't get up, wasn't even moving and there was a big swollen looking bulge above his left hind leg. I figured maybe he had an internal injury and it was just now manifesting physically.

I figured ok this is it, his time has come. I was reluctant to even go to the vet anitcipating they'd say right away he's 14, has hip problems anyway, and would just say to put him down. Plus it was past my regular vet hours and I didn't want to take him to anyone else. So I said OK God if its his time please just take him in his sleep. He really had a death look by late Saturday.

Sunday was even worse. He peed all over laying down and diarrhea came out as well his back end two times. It was like when my son was born and all the crap you deal with cleaning up constantly like that with newborns. What a fucking mess.

The whole weekend was so depressing and I spent most of it crying looking at him on his death bed thinking I'm about to lose my best dog ever.

Monday morning I picked him up in my arms, put him in the back of my suv and went to the vets, figuring this was his last ride and he wouldn't be coming home.

The vet put him on an IV immediately and did 4 x-rays on him. Strangely no bones were broken and no internal injuries were showing up. The down side was she suspected the big bulge and this large mass showing on the xray was a big tumor that must have shifted position in the fall from running parallel in his body to now more sideways. The vet said this doesn't look good, though she did say there were no other signs of cancer anywhere else. He stayed overnight and I paid for a $400 ultrasound specialist (how outrageous for a 10 minute test) to come in and do another test to see what the mass was on Tuesday.

Turns out it was a tumor and the vet said he'll probably remain in this state and will rapidly deteriorate and die in 2 weeks and I might as well just put him to sleep. I looked at him and he looked at me with those big doggy eyes and we have such a tight bond I felt like he was saying mind to mind, don't do it its not my time yet.

I said to the vet lets take him home at least for his last days. She prescribed prednisone, which is the usual drug for tumor treatment, and said he probably won't be able to get up and walk again though.

I started researching all over the Net for info on dog tumors and came across a lot of pages where people were saying there are some alternative natural treatments to treat tumors that work amazingly fast. Figured wtf, let's see if a miracle will happen with my dog. And I did do a lot of praying to God this weekend as well.

When he came home he seemed picked up from being on the IV and at least able to eat again, so I mixed in the formula I had found on the Net which included:

Flaxseed Oil with cottage cheese
Ester-C
Ester-E
Selenium
and B-12

The Flax Oil is what is supposed to do the amazing healing part and it did. Within hours he started to be perky again. His eyes looked alive. He was raising his head up. And I'm thinking wow this is incredible.

Its been 3 days now on this forumula twice daily and he's walking again, went to pee and poop normally, and he just climbed up the stairs with me by his side for the first time since coming home.

All I can say is I'm flabergasted by what this simple natural healing approach has done so far to save my dog. Weird as it sounds the tumor bulge already seems smaller too. From what I've researched, Flax Oil is incredibly potent against cancer tumors.

So just want to say thank you God for answering my prayers. And, thanks to the Internet which is a life saver for finding the most incredible information.

And always remember Miracles do happen. Don't know what the future holds, but for now I've got my dog back again and for whatever time we do have left together I feel blessed from above.

Yeh, same, this dog literally never leaves my side when I'm home.

You get so darn attached to them, even more than your kids at times.

The tough part is we only usually have our dogs for 10 to 15 years which isn't all that much time when you think about how close you become.

tical 05-19-2005 08:44 PM

make sure you keep the flax seed oil refrigerated & out of the sunlight or it will go bad

delicate fats like that have a tendency to get rancid quick, which is why they sell flax and other omega fats in dark / black bottles

L0stMind 05-19-2005 08:47 PM

Wow, great story! Best wishes for a full recovery.

Hmmm, I take flax oil everyday and hate the taste. Maybe I should be a bit more forgiving on the taste side if its so potent (cancer is a big killer in my family).

I would pay thousands if I could prolong her life..but I know realistically it is only a matter of time.I don't like thinking about it but try to cherish the time I do have..I guess it's all we can do..you are right..they are just like kids..non pet owners don't realize how loyal and loving your animals are..after a shitty day they make you feel better

SquireMD 05-19-2005 08:52 PM

My dog is having similar problems. Thanks for your post KRL! Best of luck

Tala 05-19-2005 08:57 PM

NIce. Best to you Kevin. (Answer your email howboutit now, please?)

spunkmaster 05-19-2005 09:02 PM

Holy shit this sounds exactly like my 13 YO Black Lab. The same story happened with the stairs etc..

I haven't taken him to the vet for the same reason as you that it would be his last ride.

I happen to have a whole case of flaxseed oil (1000 MG each) for myself so thanks for the tip :)

reynold 05-19-2005 09:13 PM

Thanx for that one buddy! It is such a good story.

Furious_Female 05-19-2005 09:38 PM

That's an awesome story! Thanks for sharing. :) All the best to your doggy.

The cure for cancer is out there and it's in all natural things, all around us. The drug companies will never allow them to come out though. They do not want to heal us. There's too much money in keeping people (and animals) just alive enough to keep needing medication. :Oh crap

All the answers are out there... they just haven't been discovered yet or talked about it. :thumbsup

goBigtime 05-19-2005 09:42 PM

Fantastic news about your dog there KRL :)

Flax seed oil + cottage cheese does kick ass.


I've known this fact for awhile now:

When I get cancer (because eventually we ALL will at the rate companies are allowed to poison us), western medicine can kiss my fucking ass. :2 cents:


On another note...

The insurance premiums for my healthcare plan have just went up the for the _12th_ time since 9/11. The plan was initially $80/month and now is $250 a month.

"1000 MG each" sounds like you might have it in pill form??

If I were to do this, I wouldn't use anything but fresh cold pressed flaxseed oil that you find in black bottles in refrigerators at health food stores... and organic growth hormone free cottage cheese.

Probably wouldn't hurt to include the other supplements KRL used either.

azguy 05-19-2005 10:05 PM

Natural is the way to go sometimes. It's good to hear it is helping your dog.

I was diagnosed with Chronic Dry Eyes just last month and was supposed to start taking Restasis. I read about Omega-3 fatty acids (found in fish, leafy green vegetables) and how it helps people with dry eyes. Man - I tried and am now taking Omega-3 pills (or fish oil/salmon every other day)... and my eyes HAVE NEVER BEEN BETTER. The freakin Dry/Allergy/Whatever Eyes I had for over 2 years were gone within a few days of taking Omega 3. DAYS. I've tried everything - from dozens of eye drop brands to punctul plugs in the eye - and nothing worked.

My condition was pretty severe in the past couple of years.. My eyes would bother me CONSTANTLY and there were days when they even prevented me from having a normal work day. Now - NOTHING. Absolutely freakin nothing. Magic. :)

:thumbsup

jonesy 05-19-2005 10:09 PM

i wish alot more people would approach human medical problems the way you did with your dog KRL in regards to natural healing

alternative natural medicine ie herbs foods, eastern medicines ect are looked down upon by western doctors which is based on ignorance and greed

long story short - a friend of mines father was diagnosed with colon cancer and was given 6 months to live - the guy is in his late 50's from the northeastern part of the country, college graduate and a very successfull businessman.

he was told to do radiation. he checked out alternative medicine. found a leading MD in NY. did some research.

decicided to go with the alternative medicine. started taking the root essiac.

that was 15 yrs ago.

hes still alive and doing well with no signs of cancer.

AVM 05-19-2005 10:10 PM

Good post, and great to hear. Hope his health continues to improve! :thumbsup

what were some of the symptoms? - i think i may have a slight case of that in one eye. sometimes it feels as if someones scratching my eye.

KRL 05-19-2005 11:30 PM

I was surprised to hear from the vet also that 1 out 3 dogs develops cancer.

My bet its from all the chemicals in the processed dog food. I just found a new brand with all natural ingredients.

Probably why so many of us are getting cancer from all the crap they inject into livestock these days to make the meat look good in the supermarket.

Going to bed. Thanks for your kind words all. :thumbsup

Mutt 05-20-2005 01:58 AM

i spent October through January nursing my 15 year old golden retriever who was rapidly falling apart, totally had to change my routine and hours around so i could care for her round the clock - was told to put her down but as long as there was a little hope and i couldn't see any real signs of pain I wouldn't let her go. KRL you know it's inevitable, the same way I did - but you are doing the right thing - you'll know you did everything you could and didn't give up on your buddy.

i am still grieving for my dog, i've had two dogs die before and never felt anywhere near this bad.

A billion plus Chineese will attest to the healing powers of alternative Medicine.
I'm so glad your puppy bounced back. We have a 12 month old beautiful baby boy German Shepherd 'Jackson'. Even now I bum out thinking about a day when he wont be around anymore.

I'm with ya on the outrageous cost of the vet. We found a cool old country Doc who doesn't gouge us like the "doggie day spas"....Let's face it-jackosn doesn't need an aroma therapy massage! :)

Glad to know there are alternatives out there-Good Luck with your Handsome Boy!

Once you start to research natural medicine and start reading cancer researcher Ralph Moss' findings, you'll never look at the "cancer racket" the same again. :2 cents:

I was actually expecting the bill to be higher. Was just over $850.

I told a friend that and he said I was nuts to spend that on an old dog. But I don't care cause that dog has been loyal to me for a 1/3rd of my life and the least I could do is give him a fight chance during his final years.

I had EVERY Chronic Dry Eye symptom that's in the book:

Dry eye feeling
Sandy eye feeling
Scratchy eye feeling
Burning eye
Stinging eye
Excessive tearing
Eye pain
Redness of the eye
Blurred vision
Degraded vision

Every day I'd experience something different from that list :) On really bad days I'd have a combination of several items.

After 2 years of dealing with this and countless visits to 6 different eye doctors - nothing worked just yet. Then I was going to start taking Restasis (http://www.restasis.com/default2.htm), which is supposed to increase tear production in the eye and can take up to 6 months before it becomes effective. I actually have the bottle right here, but haven't used it yet.

It is all gone now, most likely thanks to the Omega-3 that I constantly feed into my body :)

From all the readings that I've done (and I read A-L-O-T), I've yet to read about a single dry eye. None of the articles/resources I read ever mentioned having the problem only in one eye. If this is your problem - it may be very rare. I'd go see a doctor if regular over-the-counter lubricating drops don't help the eye. :thumbsup

DomBuyer 05-20-2005 07:40 AM

I strongly urge every household to pick up "Prescription for Nutritional Healing" by James Balch.

It is a BIBLE of natural healing and offers dozens of alternatives to big medicine's "write a script and don't ask questions!" attitude.

It has been revised so many times because it continues to accomodate new experiences and clinical trials.

Totally worth every penny. We got our pup from Shepherd rescue and have stuck with the vet they use. The ones around our neighborhood were charging 3 times as much for neutering and shots etc...so we keep driving out to the country guy, who gives him great care, and shepherd rescue keeps sending him Dogs and everybody is happy. It just seems like what a vet should be like.
I already sent an email to the rescue people about your potion and it was much appreciated!

PersianKitty 05-20-2005 08:06 AM

Best wishes for him, KRL.

Your post made me cry and go hug my dog and kitties.

ry0t 05-20-2005 08:17 AM

Hey KRL, Im happy your dog lived so long though. Feel blessed that you got to spend so much time with the dog. German shepards and bigger dogs always have problems sooner than the smaller dogs. I know first hand because I have both a cocker spaniel and a german shepard. The cocker spaniel is named Shaina she is 15 and has cancer now. The german shepard is named "Bandit" he's doing well.

I love my german shepard

I've been going through a lot of his research and reports for the last week or two. We just found out April 2 that my dad has a grade IV glioblastoma multiforme (brain tumor) and the prognosis is about 6 months. Most of April was a blur and I was still so in shock that I couldn't think to do much research, plus he was in the hospital the first half. He's home now and I drive him 175 miles every day for radiation treatments in a special protocol program. Several people that we've gotten friendly with in the waiting room have given me print-outs of various articles from Moss. It's horrible to be given virtually 0 hope, but so far I like a lot of what he has to say. At this point, we're willing to try anything, since we have nothing to lose.

My Dad has lung cancer from asbestos and they have given him 3 months to live. At that stage he was hardly eating anything and his weight had dropped to 52kg. I sent him essiac tea and when that was finnished I sent him N-Tense and now he is eating large meals and seems a lot better. We have another 2 months according to the Doc's and I'm praying that the alternative medicines will work.

Great story KRL and I pray your dog gets well mate.

Wanderlust 05-20-2005 08:56 AM

I am not much of a poster as you can see but your story made me cry. On March 24 I had to put my dog down. He was almost 14 years old and the best dog I ever had. Even as I write this I can't help but cry. My dog had hip dysphasia so bad they thought years ago they would have to put him down. I did everything I could to save him and researched everything I could find on it. I spent thousands of dollars and didn't care, and would have spent more if it would have saved him. The amazing thing is I did find something that worked. I used a combination of 3 things. Part of what I got was from the vet and the other 2 things I used I got online.
I am telling you that you will see the most amazing results in weeks with Glyco Flex 3. My dog could not walk over a few feet at a time until I put him on that. DO NOT use any other brand from your vet. They gave me some generic brand and its not the same. This has glucosamine in it, and its stage III. The other thing I used is called
Duralactin, its an inflammatory for dogs. It helps with pain. The 3rd thing I got from the vet and I would only use this as a last resort, because its dangerous. Its called Metacam, it works and gives them more time. BUT those type of drugs like Metacam don't work on all dogs, so this you have to get from the vet. I am telling you the other two work so well, or at least did for my dog it was amazing. In the end my dog died of kidney failure. But you know what, he walked into the vets on his own.

Bansheelinks 05-20-2005 08:57 AM

Great story KRL! Thanks for sharing and I hope your dog lives a lot longer and healthier. Can you post the ingredients, how much you administer of each, and whatnot? I am very interested in putting my dog on this so please post specifics.

Once again, thanks for sharing that story. Only another dog owner could know precisely what you are talking about.

Alisa 05-20-2005 10:09 AM

Very touching story Krl. I myself am a dog owner. I have 2 mini wiener dogs that I love and care for deeply. They are my children. I am all for natural healing and feeding my dogs a diet of raw natural food. A few months ago my one male who is only a year old started to get ear infections along with hair loss in his armpits, once the hair was gone in both arm pits along came some nasty blisters. I took him to the vet only for them to say well it could be a food allergy for skin scrappings came back negative for anything else. They put him antibotics and pednizone ( steroids ) and told me to only feed him special dog food which they sold at the vet for dog allergies so we could try to rule out what was causing this to him. Things started to get better while on medication but once he was done things went right back to being bad and the blisters got worse and then along came over all stratching that caused more blisters around his ears. It was horrible. I called the vet and they wanted to him back on the meds and steroids and I thought no way for there has to be a better way to help him. I like you spent about 3 weeks researching dogs and allergies and then to find out about natural healing through foods. I also fed him high quallity natural dog kibble so it was hard for me think it was food that did this but after reading I found out just how bad even though its natural ingreedients can be for them and how hard it is for them to digest the food. Anyways to make a long story short I now feed my 2 little dogs a raw diet with supplements and I must tell you my one male is now fully healed and all his hair grew back in his armpits, he is doing better than ever its like they both have a new life in them. Here is what I feed my dogs and have had amazing results.
Pulped up : carrots,peas,brocolli, spinach, celery,
raw hamburger, beef heart and kidney.
raw cut up chicken wings
raw eggs 3 times a week
and for supplements they get every day
sea kelp, organic apple cider vinegar , organic omega 3,6,9 oil
along with ester C .
I hoe this info can help out any dog own out there that might have these same problems with their furry friends. This is also the same for Cats. Here is a url that I found very helpful in my decision to change my dogs over to a all natural diet.

There was a story on the news last night about some people shelling out 45k on stem cell therapy as a last resort for their dogs and cats who have cancer.

What surprised the animal owners the most was the amount of hate mail they received and hate calls, telling them they wasted their money on an animal.

The people were hurt and confused. They had the money to spend. It wasn't government aid being redirected. Their decision. Their choice.

I've got four older dogs, ranging in age from 8-10 now. I don't know what I'll do when it's time.

Good for you, KRL.....

Oh man, I would them all. I can't imagine how people give up pets like that. I did volunteer work at a German Shepherd Rescue organization in LA, and it was so sad to see people just drop a dog off without any kind of emotion in giving it up. Some people would just come at night and tie the dog to the fence and leave. Unreal how cold people are.

Ester-C 500 MG twice daily

Selenium 100 MCG once daily (micrograms - this one you have to be careful with as too much can be toxic)

B12 250 MCG (micrograms) twice daily

I switched of the crappy ALPO he loved to a more healthier natural dog food made by Merrick Home Style Dog Food

I took him to the vet only for them to say well it could be a food allergy for skin scrappings came back negative for anything else. They put him antibotics and pednizone ( steroids ) and told me to only feed him special dog food which they sold at the vet for dog allergies so we could try to rule out what was causing this to him. Things started to get better while on medication but once he was done things went right back to being bad and the blisters got worse and then along came over all stratching that caused more blisters around his ears. It was horrible. I called the vet and they wanted to him back on the meds and steroids and I thought no way for there has to be a better way to help him. I like you spent about 3 weeks researching dogs and allergies and then to find out about natural healing through foods. I also fed him high quallity natural dog kibble so it was hard for me think it was food that did this but after reading I found out just how bad even though its natural ingreedients can be for them and how hard it is for them to digest the food. Anyways to make a long story short I now feed my 2 little dogs a raw diet with supplements and I must tell you my one male is now fully healed and all his hair grew back in his armpits, he is doing better than ever its like they both have a new life in them. Here is what I feed my dogs and have had amazing results.
Pulped up : carrots,peas,brocolli, spinach, celery,
raw hamburger, beef heart and kidney.
raw cut up chicken wings
raw eggs 3 times a week
and for supplements they get every day
sea kelp, organic apple cider vinegar , organic omega 3,6,9 oil
along with ester C .
I hoe this info can help out any dog own out there that might have these same problems with their furry friends. This is also the same for Cats. Here is a url that I found very helpful in my decision to change my dogs over to a all natural diet.

Take Care

I heard raw eggs are good also, but just wondering since those sometimes have salmonella bacteria can they make the dog sick like humans do on those?

I did everything I could to save him and researched everything I could find on it. I spent thousands of dollars and didn't care, and would have spent more if it would have saved him. The amazing thing is I did find something that worked. I used a combination of 3 things. Part of what I got was from the vet and the other 2 things I used I got online.
I am telling you that you will see the most amazing results in weeks with Glyco Flex 3. My dog could not walk over a few feet at a time until I put him on that. DO NOT use any other brand from your vet. They gave me some generic brand and its not the same. This has glucosamine in it, and its stage III. The other thing I used is called
Duralactin, its an inflammatory for dogs. It helps with pain. The 3rd thing I got from the vet and I would only use this as a last resort, because its dangerous. Its called Metacam, it works and gives them more time. BUT those type of drugs like Metacam don't work on all dogs, so this you have to get from the vet. I am telling you the other two work so well, or at least did for my dog it was amazing. In the end my dog died of kidney failure. But you know what, he walked into the vets on his own.


I immediately thought of you when I saw this thread.

Degraded vision

Every day I'd experience something different from that list :) On really bad days I'd have a combination of several items.

After 2 years of dealing with this and countless visits to 6 different eye doctors - nothing worked just yet. Then I was going to start taking Restasis (http://www.restasis.com/default2.htm), which is supposed to increase tear production in the eye and can take up to 6 months before it becomes effective. I actually have the bottle right here, but haven't used it yet.

It is all gone now, most likely thanks to the Omega-3 that I constantly feed into my body :)

From all the readings that I've done (and I read A-L-O-T), I've yet to read about a single dry eye. None of the articles/resources I read ever mentioned having the problem only in one eye. If this is your problem - it may be very rare. I'd go see a doctor if regular over-the-counter lubricating drops don't help the eye. :thumbsup

i got a few of those symptoms, sometimes bad sometimes mild and not everyday but at least 4 days a week. i went to eye doctors too and tried the over the counter stuff which didnt help.

ill check out the omega 3

thanks for the info - of all places gfy :1orglaugh

Which symptoms did you have exactly? Where do you live? It could also be allergy eyes - and that fuckin sucks, but treatable. For allergy eyes there are many solutions, one of them is Patanol (http://www.patanol.com/). Dry Eye Syndrome is a bit more complicated and there are many many useful resources on the net. The most important thing is to REALLY understand what is it that you feel in your eye, because that's the only way the doctor is going to know. There's a huge different between scratchy eyes vs. foreign body sensation, or and Blurred vision vs. Degraded vision. Only you know. I used to keep a log of everything I ate, drank, when I woke up, when I felt what, etc.

EDIT: I saw that you live in Miami so I guess you don't need air humidifier (which helps at nights for those who suffer from chronic dry eyes) LOL
