I would like to congratulate the wonderful people of this website. You are a big help to needy and desperate people like me..

Last october 10, 2011, my mother 79 year old mother was diagnosed to have an egg sized tumor probably of the gliobalatoma multiform kind. Since she lived in the island of Palawan, she was discharged for further MRI which is only available in the capital city of Manila. I traveled to palawan 6 days later and found her state of health has worsened and was bedriden in just a couple of days and she's not fit to travel anymore without full medical backup.

Fast forward to this day we are still on the hospital for pnuemonia and various other secondary complications. Our hospital is ill equipped, so all they could do was palliativecare. the good thing is that our doctors are giving us somewhat of a free hand on our alternative treatment (except coffee enema)

Here is a list of what we are giving her:

MSM

wheatgrass (on sachets only)

barley powder

cellect (2 weeks only)

budwig (almost a month)

transfer factor plus ( 4 life brand)

bee propolis for about 2 weeks,

The tumor is pressing on a nerve that is for respiration and the one that is responsible for conciousness.

First week of november she was given a couple of days to live, we fought hard against it and we regained her back 6through tracheaostomy. All her vitals are near perfect, yet she fell on a coma state for a week now.

Lab test showed shes low on potassium and protein. She's breathing on her own right now, shes out of the ventilator 2 weeks ago.

It's been a roller coaster ride of emotion.... Anyway what I would like to ask every one of you. How can I get her out of coma?

The doctors are giving her mannitol for diuretic I think. Steroid for the swelling of the brain, bronchodilators, omeprazole, nitrofuratoine kalium durule for potassium .

She's feeding on a tube, I was desperate yesterday so I sneaked in 2 tbsp of Virgin Coconut Oil every 12 hours.

So far, shes still sleeping.

I don't have the luxury of having all the herbs, supplements at my disposal, since this is a fairly remote island.. even my internet connection is a luxury.

I need help my friends, thanks
