Spent a good hour and a half with Dr. VanBuskirk a little over a month ago. The most encouraging meeting of my life. Kris sat at the kid’s place with Monty while Debi and Tim joined me for the visit. Near the end of an hour and a half+ visit I asked him for his evaluation of my progress. Without exaggeration and to the best of my ability I’ll try to quickly try to paraphrase his response...
Although I cannot speak for Dr. Cox it is no secret that he feels he has met the enemy head on and has already won that battle. The drugs did what he hoped he would have them do, and although with my cancer they can’t say cured I guess I’m like the alcoholic - he cannot see any reason for that to change. Who can ask for anything more?
Speaking for himself, Dr. Vanbuskirk said we have traveled miles down a very long road to complete health and he believes the progress to be substantial and again sees little or no barriers to that progress continuing to be better and better. He could not be more pleased by my attitude, my concrete willingness to take things on and improved with them. Even right now he is going to move my meetings with him from one to two or three months based on how quickly I have grasped onto things and continue to work within those structures. He could not be more pleased other than a complete cure here and now. Who can ask for anything more.
While in the office, one of the nurses left the lab to come over and tell me how wonderful the CORPUS article was and how it has helped her. I was so overwhelmed by the morning I came home and slept for several hours.
