our last day in Baja




i just wanted to share the last minutes at Gerson with you: Denise will have to inject daily when at home a mix of B12 and Liver....so here she is practicing on Dr Cervantes...who, as you can see, is a good sport.

so back to living in the real world...for me, not a lot of change, for Denise, a complete life change for the next couple of years.

right now Kim, her sister from Atlanta is with her for 10 days and followed by her sister Sandy....so hopefully they will get her routine established and then it will be up to us "Friends of Denise" to support her in any way we can.

the blog will be continued by Denise, so keep checking

over and out...Hilary

The Beautiful Truth

SEE THIS FILM: THE BEAUTIFUL TRUTH and google it and watch the trailers....you will get a good idea of Gerson Therapy and be shocked too, no doubt.
Below is the synopsis of the film:
Garrett is a 15-year old boy living in the Alaskan wilderness with a menagerie of orphaned animals. Growing up close with nature has given him
a deep understanding of nutritional needs required by diet sensitive animals on the reserve. Unfortunately, the untimely and tragic death of his mother propelled him into a downward spiral and he risked flunking out of school. This led to his father’s decision to home-school Garrett.
His first assignment was to study a controversial book written by Dr. Max Gerson.

Written over 50 years ago, Dr. Gerson found that diet could, and did, cure cancer. Controversial at the time (and even today),
Garrett took on the challenge of researching this amazing therapy, which drew the interest of his neighbors in the small Alaskan community.
With the help of Dr. Gerson’s daughter, Charlotte Gerson, and grandson, Howard Strauss, they gave him the ammunition needed to go in search
for the truth – a truth that would affect not only him, but his entire Alaskan village – all of whom wanted to know if these claims were true.
After a number of cancer patients, who were diagnosed as terminal, shared their stories and their medical records with Garrett, it became
abundantly clear that, contrary to the disinformation campaign spear-headed by the multi-billion dollar medical and pharmaceutical industry,
a cure for virtually all cancers and chronic diseases does exist – and has existed for over 80 years!

Garrett’s mission now is to tell the world.

On the road again!







Hi
Everyone; sorry not to have posted for a few days but it is SOOOO slow on the computer down here at weekends.

well....we are home bound this morning..and we are excited to be seeing our loved ones again but sad too to leave behind our new friends and community down here.
We had a fun few days; Saturday we went to Rosarita, a resort town just close by and wandered around a bit
Sunday was a really beautiful day weather wise and we went for a lovely walk to the beach..just 2 blocks away
the photos are of our outings and around here. Last night was so sweet, the kitchen staff did a special set up of the room for Denise's last night here.
the photos are of Denise, me and Martin and Margit; of me showing off my new http://www.blogger.com/posts.g?blogID=2194033047587564554crocheting skill...the hat will keep me warm up Mt Whitney later this summer! Denise and Yoshiko, that's everyone I think you've met by now. here's Denise
Hi all, I am so excited to be heading home shortly. I will miss my cancer buddies here but leave with great hope that they will be cured in the near future. It's been a fabulous journey being here. i am now well versed in the Gerson therapy and will be able to adapt it to my home life. It's a big change from my previous diet, but it's actually pretty diverse and the food is very good. Just have to get used to no salt. The shuttle come s here at 9:30 then we'll head up to San diego to pick up my car and drive to LAX where we pick up my sister Kim who is flying in from Atlanta.
I thank you all for your interest in my progress and plan to continue posting on the blog once I am back home. It's such a great way to keep in touch. Love you all and see you back home!
Love, Denise and Hilary

You Gotta Friend - The Janice M. Anderson Foundation


Hello everyone! 
Tamara here. I just wanted to let you all know about a foundation I started as a tribute to my mom. As some of you may know, she too battled breast cancer through The Gerson Therapy. I feel that it gave her an additional 15 years. Not too shabby!!!
All that being said, I have started a blog for You Gotta Friend - The Janice M. Anderson Foundation and it is going to be featured in the next e-newsletter from the Gerson Institute. I have posted a little bit on Denise and all the other patients at the Baja Nutri Clinic.
If you are interested in finding out more about You Gotta Friend, check out the blog at gottafriend.blogspot.com. Please post your comments, questions or information. I'd love to hear from you.
All the best,
t

Friday June 12th





Hi Gang,
Hilary here...just finished our leisurely breakfast (my fave meal of the day) consisting of oatmeal, beautiful fresh fruit, toast, honey, yogurt..yum!

yesterday was much the same as the others....Denise continues to follow the regimen..she is a model patient:)
we had a cooking class in the afternoon....pretty easy stuff, but we did make oatmeal raisin cookies that are acceptable to the diet and OK to eat too; our instructor was Magaritte(see photo)

last night we had a fun evening of Canasta, Denise, me, Margit, Martin and Micheala....we laughed a lot and had so much fun...we are a competitive bunch; Denise said that both Tamara and I are so sweet and lovely until we get into the game situation...:)I don't know what she means!

Today's highlight is yoga at 11am...Denise missed it last week since she was so poorly then...but it is a different ballgame this week...she is bouncing around the place...then we have a Canasta rematch planned....Margit has sworn to beat me before Denise and I leave on Monday:)

the other photos on today's blog are Taka and his mother Naomi; Naomi is from japan and Taka lives in Calgary, Canada. He has taken 4 weeks off to be with his Mom who does not speak English...but has the most delightful spirit. Taka is a model son and his love for his Mom shines through. it is so wonderful for Naomi that Yashiko (from Toronto) is here at the same time ...she has someone to chat with.

The final photo is posted at the request of Margit; Martin is a dapper English gentleman with a sharp sense of wit and we laughed at him in this photo....it epitomizes a "gerson" patient....juice in one hand, enema bucket in the other!


Denise placed her order of supplements yesterday..so we are beginning to think about the return home....I know she is ready to be with her family and friends and pets again and we have learned all we need to continue the treatments at home now.

so....we hope you are all well and as happy as we are:)
we will continue to send you little updates daily
i would highly recommend you take a look at the website (processedpeople.com)....it is illuminating

much love
Hilary and of course Denise (who is 'busy' at the moment:)
