I Still Have So Much To Learn!



After being diagnosed with cancer someone told me that I needed to go learn everything I possibly could about the disease, especially colon cancer.  I thought 🤔 about that for several days and it just didn’t sit well with me but I did start researching.  After I had finally healed from my surgery and could catch my breath, I thought about it again and it FINALLY dawned on me (I’m a slow learner sometimes 🫢🤣)….I didn’t need to learn everything I could about cancer, I already knew everything I needed to know about it….Cancer = BAD 👎🏼!  Plus…the experts have been learning about it longer than I’ve been alive and look how far they’ve gotten 🫣😬🤭


What I needed to learn was everything I could about the human body’s capabilities in regard to healing itself💡!  THAT is what made sense and THAT is what I needed to learn.  Learning everything I possibly could about this is what became my driving force and what led me to the holistic healing journey that I’ve been on for the last 7+ months.  


When I was first getting started I knew I would never be able to do it alone.  Nope, I wasn’t strong enough, mentally or physically (at the time).  We had been led back to Jesus through an introduction to Andrew Wommack/Berry Bennett (I talked about this in a previous blog) but I needed a renewed relationship with Him. I needed a REAL relationship with Him….not a surface “I’m a Christian” relationship but one where  I commune with Him throughout the day, every day.  So that’s what I did!  I trusted that He would lead me to whatever I needed or away from the things I didn’t.  So I started there and He led us to Chris Wark/Chris Beat Cancer.   


The Chris Beat Cancer program has led me to other people in the holistic world; practitioners and survivors.  These people have led me down a million different rabbit 🐇 holes 🕳️.  From the power of carrots 🥕 and garlic 🧄 to the dark and disturbing world of parasites 🦠 and worms 🪱 😱….there is seriously more to come about that but right now I’m still trying to wrap my head around it all 🤯


I have really, really, really immersed myself in the natural healing world.  The topic is expansive but sadly information can be difficult to find and/or understand.  The information posted or shared is often taken down or removed because it goes against “community standards”….I’ll let you guess who decides what info is acceptable and what isn’t 😏.  As a matter of fact my latest blog (the one prior to this) was removed for that very reason 😒 and I was only celebrating my first clear colonoscopy post diagnosis 🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ (i highlighted that because I’m still celebrating 🥳).  Anyway, there is so much evidence out there that our bodies were designed by our creator to heal, we just have to flood them with nutrient dense foods 🥕🥦🥗🍅🥬🧄 and cut out all the garbage 🍭🍪🧁🍬🍫.  It really is that simple…but it’s also hard work AND a commitment…a BIG commitment!!  Mindset is definitely important, maybe the most important part.  


If you have a cancer diagnosis (or any disease) choosing your healing method is an important choice and 100% YOUR choice!!  Don’t be bullied or scared into doing anything you don’t want to do.  Ask questions, lots and lots of questions.  You have time!  


We didn’t know what questions to ask right away so I started chemo out of fear.  If you choose conventional medicine you should still (in my opinion) flood your body with nutrient dense food to support your body’s systems while the medicine does its job.  Some drugs have very harsh side effects that you may be able to control or avoid (to an extent) by a clean diet and exercise.  


Anyway, it is often in the darkest days and most difficult of circumstances that we discover our own strength.  I know I did!! Thankfully I decided fairly early in my journey to stop magnifying cancer and start magnifying the answer ✝️🙏🏼


If you are reading this and are on your own healing journey I hope you are also open to do some research about your body’s capabilities.  It’s astonishing what we can heal from.  I’ve listened to hours and hours of testimonies from survivors who were far worse off than I was who beat cancer (or other diseases) and have been cancer free for years or even decades.  Sadly, doctors who share about holistic care are often silenced by their profession.  If you’re interested here are a few to dive into….Dr. Lorraine Day, Dr. Max Gerson, Dr. Jenn Simmons, Dr. Perry Nickelston, Dr. Dean Orish, Dr. Ryan Cole, and Dr. James Loomis.  


I still learn new things every single day and I still have LOTS more to learn.  This topic isn’t talked about in the doctor office, at least not mine.  It’s broad and expansive….and sometimes overwhelming but I’m confident that I choose the right path for me.  


That’s all for now, thanks for reading. 


I’ll close this post with a verse about everything we need being supplied to us by God.


Ezekiel 47:12 (NKJV)

“Along the bank of the river, on this side and that, will grow all kinds of trees used for food; their leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail. They will bear fruit every month, because their water flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for medicine.”


Until next time….keep joy in your mind and in your hear!


Much love and many blessings,

Ali

Ain’t Life Grand….living life on the right side of cancer 💕

Greetings from beautiful Wyoming! Hidden Falls - Jenny Lake / Grand Teton National Park  A quick update before I get into it - I moved all my blogs to a new platform and it’s so much better now (at least for me).  Please let me know your thoughts, I appreciate your feedback 🩷.  Ok, here we go!!  Some of you may be following along on our journey via facebook but for those of you who aren’t, here’s a quick update.   We kicked off our nomadic journey on March 11, 2025 (after living full-time in the RV since September 2024) and this has quite literally been the best thing we have ever done.    Keith and I keep asking each other why we didn’t do this sooner.    It all comes back to - it just wasn’t our time yet.    But here we are now and we are absolutely living our best life!  Workamping is a real thing - real companies do in fact hire people who live full-time in their RV for seasonal work.    We landed an awesome job ...

Merry Christmas!

Luke 2:11 (NKJV) For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord I have so much to be thankful for this year.  I give all of my love and glory to Jesus every day but especially today, on His birthday!  He poured His blessings over me this year, He was true and faithful and never abandoned me.  I was shown first hand that all of God’s promises truly are “Yes” and “Amen” (2 Corinthians 1:20) At the start of this year I was just finishing up the first 90 days of my holistic healing program.  I was determined to beat the cancer and I had it set in my heart to do it holistically.  With God’s strength and His grace I was motivated and determined to stay on course.  I was thankful to be over that first 90 day hurdle but I was still facing so much uncertainty. I kept myself centered and focused on the goal….I kept my mind on Christ and He showed me the way!  Every decision or change I made was done so with prayer and wit...

One year ago today I started the life saving journey that I never imagined I would be going on.  I made what some might consider crazy radical changes, but I did it because I wanted to live.  Now here we are, one year later, making more radical life changes.  Sometimes life brings in twists and turns that take us in a completely different direction.  It happened to Keith and I last year (with my cancer diagnosis) and it’s happening again with our latest adventures.  If you haven’t heard yet, we sold our house and basically everything in it.  We bought a new truck and a RV and we’re hitting the road, living full time in the RV.  We went from a 1600 sq ft house to a 32 ft travel trailer…talk about radical changes 😳🤣 2024 Grand Design Imagine - Our new home! Here are a few things I’ve learned so far over the past year and especially these past few months.  We don’t always see these twists and turns coming but they always cause us to leave behind on...
