Deanna Protocol - Day 12

Another day, another day of full dosages on the "protocol".  (Again, note that I have NOT gotten the glutathione IV, nor have I directly ingested raw coconut oil or medium chain triglyceride (MCT) oil.  However I do incorporate coconut oil in my (husband's) cooking and am very partial to it on my steel-cut oatmeal.  I do not miss butter as a result.

I'm having very few side effects thus far except muscle spasming, charlie horses, in my calves, feet, and backs of my thighs.  As well as occasional cramps in my forearms which trigger various fingers.  I'm told that it could be due to not drinking enough water and since I've been tracking this on LiveStrong.com, I'm finding that could be a correlation.

I'm still following the blood-type diet for the most part.  Though I have to be flexible to a certain extent lest I drive my husband crazy.  If he offers me ketchup or salsa, I decline, but if my food shows up with it, I eat it, say thank you and remind him that it's not on my food list.  Same for beef products.

I Remember...

I remember catching fireflies,  putting them in a jar, as a girl of five. I picked pears off a tree that overhung an alleyway on my route home from school, then enjoyed the forbidden fruit. .I had a golden cat who chased a gray mouse through our living room sending my mother, 3-year old sister, and me screaming atop the sofa and chairs. We lived in a farmhouse and I watched Romper Room. A daddy longlegs skittered across my dirty kid legs as I teeter-tottered on a broken kitchen chair back. I played grocery store and laid out a bedroll for group nap time in preschool. We lived in an apartment attached to a bakery. My maternal grandparents visited and a photo was snapped. Grandma held Dawn and Grandpa held me. I held Grandpa's chin. Walking through the back of the flour-caked kitchen, I saw scrumptious pastries and colorful toys stuck in the cupcakes with my hungry kids eyes. We lived in a two-story apartment building next door to a large farmer's field.  That field was my...

Gratitude For Reading

People are reading my blog! I cannot express my gratitude enough. My heart is soaring! Before I got ALS, it was a minor interest amongst many varied interests. Today, I am unable to physically participate in many of my prior interests, like motorcycling, photography, knitting and other handicrafts, hiking, traveling, painting, drawing, going to the gym, working in the garden, doing housework, canning, and cooking gourmet or ethnic foods. Therefore, I am more focused on the ones that are most accessible to me, such as reading via audiobook or e-book, television, movies, meditation, music appreciation, and writing. Like the blind man who's sense of hearing and smell is heightened, I'd like to think my crippled body has made me more attuned to things more on the spiritual and sensual level. Initially, when some members of my family read my blog, they chose to focus on what they viewed as negative. The feedback I got was harsh and personally critical. .I was told that I was ...
