Living with Lymphoma

[Elfin Yeti]

This is our 10-year-old Golden boy, McIntyre. He was diagnosed with lymphoma last May; we decided to forego chemo and treat him homeopathically. He was supposed to be dead around the first of October according to the traditional vet. This first picture was taken in Jackson Hole, WY, over Thanksgiving after he'd done a 4-1/2 hour mountain hike with an elevation change of 1,200'! He is doing remarkably well and has lots of energy. I credit his homeopathic vet, Dr. Stephen Blake, daily doses of several tinctures and Mona Vie, his daily three-mile hikes over rough terrain, a raw diet, his three-year-old roommate, Kelsie, and lots of love! We feel very fortunate he is still in our lives.



He's not exactly a poster child for the spirit of Christmas (photo taken 2008)!

1. He's a handsome boy. I hope he will be with you a while longer

and will continue to do as well as he is

2. McIntyre is beautiful!

May you have many, many more good hikes together :-). It's good to hear the homeopathic treatment is working for him. I'm glad you have a good vet to help you with this.

3. Oh what a beautiful boy. So happy to know that his treatments

are effective, and hope he has many more good climbs ahead. He sure looks like he knows he's loved.
