Last year about this time, I had a clear mammogram. So, now I only have to go once-a-year.
I continue to eat well, but stopped pH readings after discussing it with my doctor. He pointed out that the readings reflect activity from 4-6 hours prior to the test. I haven't checked my pH for over a year.
In October of 2013, I found a tiny bump on my arm. It's the part that receives the most sunlight when riding in a car. My doctor excised it and I got 3 stitches b/c it was quite large and grew really fast in 2 months time. He thought it was Basal Cell Carcinoma. The pathology report states it was Squamous. The latter is a bit more serious, but in the same family. The pathology said there was no indication of spreading and all of it was removed. This news was quite saddening to me, because it's telling me my body is not dealing well with cancer cells and can't get rid of them.
I had promised to do some research and found a grant to apply for. My research will involve the poetry writing of cancer survivors and specifically, an aging population. If you meet these requirements and would like to participate, you can email me a letter of interest to rogus2006@verizon.net.
