    Default Looking for Help

    Hello,

    My 4 year old daughter was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor in June of this year. We are coming to Houston on Friday for alternative treatment at the Burzynski Clinic. She is on a raw food diet and I am looking for someone or people to prepare raw food and carrot, spinach juice for her over the next 3 weeks. Do you know how I can get in touch with people that might be interested?

    Thanks for your help.

    Annette

    I don't know of any connections in Texas but this is a good place to start. I wish you luck. If I lived closer I'd be helping you, that is for sure!
    Give that baby girl a (((hug)))!

    I can't help ypu, but looks like Dimond has it covered! But you and your precious girl are in my prayers. I have heard GREAT things about the Burzynski Clinic.

    I am so sorry your baby girl has to go through this! From everything I've been studying, she will be in great hands at the Burzynski center. I'm hoping to be treated there myself as soon as I get get the financial side of things figured out (after a year of hideous SAD living, I have recently been diagnosed with breast cancer).

    Wow, Dimond gave you some great resources... I am bookmarking this for future reference!

    I hope you will keep us posted on your daughter's ongoing VICTORY over this!! This is a wonderful community here and we would all like to get to know you better and support you during this tough time!

    I live in Houston, but don't have a juicer or a dehydrator. I can do things that don't require those. You can email me at lifewise@live.com.

    We have a great co-op here where you can get all organic food and a lot that is locally grown. You can check www.rawfullyorganic.com and write Kristina.

    Here are two meetups for raw vegans:

    http://www.meetup.com/Houston-Raw-Food-Lifestyle/

    http://www.meetup.com/The-Houston-Ur...-Meetup-Group/

    We have raw potlucks on the 2nd Wednesday and 4th Thursday at Taft Street Coffee House on 2115 Taft.

    You can also get Pat Greer's raw vegan food at Fit Foods.

    This is totally unrelated to the juice issue.

    But back when I did cancer research at UAB (Birmingham AL), cancer patients and their families could get "free flights" via angel flight.

    Have you looked into this mechanism for your travel?

    Just so that you are aware...maybe it could help.

    Good luck.

    Your little girl and your family are in my prayers.

    I can't help at all as I live in another country, but just wanted to post my thoughts and support for you, your daughter and your family at this time.
