Overcoming Stage Four Lymphoma: Video of a Cat's Story
Gina Paulhus here with GenuineEssiac.com. I wanted to share with you guys my cat's story of overcoming Stage 4 lymphoma using Essiac. So like most of you, I'm sure, my cat is my life and she is my favorite thing, and I just absolutely love her. And when I heard that she had cancer, it really, really devastated me. The doctors told us that she would only have about two months to live.
And in order to get that two months, we would have to put her on prednolosone, which we were willing to do. They did say that cancer, you know, could potentially be helped with chemo, but we really didn't wanna put her through that. I've heard horror stories and we declined that. So we started her on the prednolosone and then we started to give her essiac.
Now, we noticed some of her symptoms, which included not eating enough, vomiting, being very lethargic. Some of those symptoms got better pretty quickly. We didn't know if it was the medication or the essiac, but we kept doing both. And then we were able to bring her back about two months later, and they said that the cancer looked significantly better, so to just continue doing whatever we were doing. Now mind you, we were told she only had two months to live, so this is an amazing thing at this point.
So we kept doing our thing, brought her back after six months, the cancer was gone, which they were shocked by. Of course, we went ahead and shared our brochure and our website and said, hey. We've been giving her this, and the vet was interested. So that's positive.
So we kept doing Essiac, and we kept giving it to her, and we did cut down on her medication and down her medication some more.
So the medication, I think, was great to just give us more time because the Essiac does take sometimes up to 4.5 to 6 months to work. It usually works more quickly for cats than for people. That being said though, you don't know until you reach the 6 month mark whether or not it'll do the trick. So definitely go by what your vet is suggesting, and if you're open to doing both, I think that's great.
In our case, it seemed to be a good move. And so we're just continuing to give her the maintenance dose, and that is really our strategy because we do wanna make sure that she does not get cancer again.
So that is our story. She was only 7 years old when she got diagnosed and she's now 10. So we do hope for many more years with her. She's healthy otherwise. So, that's actually been a savior for us, and hopefully, it'll be the same for your pet.
