Free From Chemo After 18 Years

Summary

A woman diagnosed in July 2005 with stage 4 HER2 positive breast cancer metastatic to spine (three crushed vertebrae) and lymph nodes when her fourth child was 7 months old, continued treatment for 18 years, never questioning needing chemo for the rest of her life to stay alive and experiencing no side effects because she decided she wouldn't. After seeing a friend's life change through Dr. Joe's meditations, she bought the progressive workshop online and started practicing, having her first breath experience at Paris Progressive Retreat where she felt her bottom being pulled out and separated (something major, felt really good), leading to daily meditation without missing a single day since November 2022. At Nashville retreat while still on 3-week chemo cycles, she got an overwhelming feeling that treatment wasn't aligned with her, which was huge since she'd associated medicine with life for 18 years. She was selected as a healee with clear intent to be healed to stop medicine, having fear of announcing this to her oncologist but trusting it would work out. During breath work, her first energy center came up and somehow merged with the third, pushing up into pineal gland with immense relief, peeling off layers of traumatic childhood, raising kids alone, and abusive past. After the walking meditation, she realized "the person that started the walk was not the person that ended the walk," understanding the body that created the disease no longer exists. Three days after Nashville, her oncologist (whom she'd seen for 18 years like an old friend) spontaneously said "this summer you're going to stop your treatments" without her asking. Her last chemo was August 2023, and at Marco Island she was a healee again, solidifying that she'd never have chemo again. About a month ago, the oncologist called saying he wanted to see her "one last time before I retire," fulfilling her memory of him telling her in her panic years ago "you're going to see me retire." The fear that cancer patients live with is gone because she knows that person doesn't exist - she has a new body, new brain, and coherent heart.
