    @Charlene-Marshall

    You know how you mention therapeutic in the morning with your lemon/lime? It is magnified when you get up an hour before anyone else and I like that quiet peacefulness more than anything else the whole day.  So in the Philippines, I get up first and make juice and start part of breakfast then do an email or read and then I wake up my wife where we both share the moments of quiet with our juice before her busy day starts…

    I understand tired with this  *&$%&())^!!!!@#_*** time change… The last couple of days I have had the IPF cough bother me but the B vitamins, serrapeptase, and laser have increased my endurance so still able to do stuff.  This is a terrible, unrelenting disease and we are only in a temporary pause it seems, but I’ll take it… Steve

    Hi Charlene – mom got up at 5 no matter how late she went to bed so I come by it honestly.  Working construction a long time and serving in the USN contributed to that too.  Because of my days alone sometimes I take a nap and usually stay up til 11 pm.  I used to like just 6 hours but as I age 7 is perfect but rarely seen…

    Well, I hope we make learning and growing mentally and spiritually a life long journey. I have never found anyone I could not learn something from including children.

    I hope me posting a weekly score is encouraging to others because I do not mean it as a boost but victory.

    As soon as I ship stuff to the Philippines Sunday my wife and I will start doing autophagy at least once per week.  I am sending here a lovely green tea and ground turmeric.   I hope you will enjoy your juicing. I don’t think I can do that because it is too much sugar no no fiber but success to you. Best to you friend – Steve

    Hi Charlene – Laughing at your late night comment.  I burn the oil early in the morning and get up at 4: am. Training in the Philippines we got up at 3 am many mornings ar we would start the day behind and you didn’t want to do that or turn in homework late because you got extra homework – even if you were sick like I was.

    Yes got the job but it is pretty short. I’m working with Indeed.com assessment scientist to help create sales interview questions and we have a few rounds of creation and then exchange our white paper to a panel for finalizing the material.  Indeed will probably use the result around the world to employers find the best fit.

    Actually, have 4 jobs, 2 end in a few days, a new one starts Monday and the 4th one is developing from a previous client.

    The score this week: laser 3, gym 1, work 2, v IPF 0, head cold .5.  I can live with that.

    Really glad you like the morning juice and even had sunshine to spare today. I am working on bringing my laser doctor to the forum and hopefully help him create a new avenue for lung patients that the laser will help.

    Have a great weekend! – Steve

    Hi Debbi,

    Steve here in Virginia, USA.  I was in the Philippines when first diagnosed w IPF early October 2016. After returning to the USA in April 2018 I did various tests here to confirm IPF.  Pulmonary PT helped and started me going back to the gym.  Tried various supplements but settled successfully on serrapeptase, astragalus, a good B vitamin complex, D3/ K2m7 vitamins together (been taking these a few years and recently increased D3 dosage), and K-laser class IV treatments.

    Laser and serrapeptase have definitely helped the most.  We have several forums here and you may want to look at Laser and Laser II. Several others are looking at specific herbal mixtures -WEI institute being the main one. Also, there are various clinical trials underway and at least one looks promising.

    Hope you will find your membership into our exclusive club a benefit as many others have. – Steve

    Hi Charlene – a couple of quick additions to my note above would be: Sometimes a particular comment by a member or administrator is difficult to locate – how can we find those easier? If you cut and paste something to a post, approval is required and in at least one instance the article I wrote never posted.  So it would be beneficial if we knew to copy anything we write before we hit the submit button.

    Thanks for the opportunity to help influence improving the site.

    Hopefully, your temps go above zero eminently… Steve

    Hi friend – I think I will email you any more ideas regarding the panel/forum and just up to this point there is no form yet just ideas to help create the form (panel/forum). So any ideas keep them coming.

    Just like to add that a business partner and I once created a client’s tremendous and valuable house file by setting up 2 whiteboards. The first day all of us (about 20or so) threw anything at the first board no matter how ridiculous it seemed. Day 2 we took those ideas and created 5 – 10 top points.  From these 2 boards the group “Teen Suicide Prevention” was created and in 18 months we had over 90,000 donors nationwide – long before the internet in the mid-eighties.

    We are at the first whiteboard stage and all ideas are welcome. – Steve

    @Charlene-Marshall

    Hi Charlene – thank you for keeping these forums open for discussion. I know somewhere this newsletter has a link to all known clinical trials around the world and many times these trials start with induced IPF in lab mice/rats. It would be interesting if we can get to that stage with a class IV laser.  Of course it is useful to have scientifically proven data at our fingertips and there is a lot of research in countries outside of the USA regards lasers and other useful medical solutions where big pharma is not pulling as many financial strings.

    I can’t imagine how some lab or other group came to the conclusion that wiping out the immune system and only killing the daughter cells in cancer could be called a success.  Maybe that’s why it’s called remision not cure.

    So here’s to the poison of out choice. Cheers! Mine is remaining positive and helpful and curious and investigative as long as I can.

    Thank you and all who contribute – good, bad, or indifferent. – Steve

    @drandyhall @Charlene-Marshall Hi Charlene – adding you to this post.  Maybe you will us to go offline with this conversation?

    Hi Andy – that sounds really good. I know many new to the K-laser idea will want that great info as mine is asking questions I don’t know how to answer. So he does want to talk to John’s doctor and maybe others.

    So I will create an introduction letter to doctors and then a panel/forum intro letter for Charlene and you to advise me, then we need a doctor’s list for me to start outreach to them.  We should concentrate on K-laser users first. Include veterinarians? I would use one if I had not been accepted by Dr. Hundley.

    Add your thoughts too…  Thanks – Steve

    @caneelbay1

    Hi John – yes pioneers.  Was thinking about that earlier today and realized we have a massive opportunity.

    We need to start a panel with Andy your doctor, mine and Dr. Harrington to explore ways to get the word out to the public and western medicine – in addition to the abstract Andy is working. I am helping my doctor get more exposure with a variety of suggestions.  Since I have been in marketing and sales 36 years there is a lot I hope to share with the panel.  This will be a different approach to reach more people affected. So I’ll work on this a while.

    But in the meantime send me your doctor’s contact info, it starts there between him/her and my doctor. Steve

    Hey John – thanks for the update, very valuable material.

    When I get a cold I take 2x daily lemon/lime w a little water smashed garlic rested for 15 minutes and either blend or chop garlic and put in the juice.  Also, add a little real honey.  This is called Russian penicillin and it is effective in reducing the strength and length of the cold.  Actually, have lemon/lime w honey every morning and a fresh smashed rested garlic clove a couple of times a week.  Until 2 weeks ago, I have not had a cold in 3 or 4 years and it was not too bad and lasted about 5 days. Serrapeptase helped too. – Steve

    John – that’s great news! I have had several treatments but initially, we were using the wrong protocol.  Looking forward to similar results.

    What is “I lost my increased saturation’s outside two weeks ago”?

    Keep it up!

    Thanks – Steve

    @budhenry

    Circuitous logic is what most skeptics use – well – because that’s all the thingies they’ve got.  haha haha, I also once heard an argument that some people were considered brainless because no one had ever seen their brain and no one could prove otherwise. But I see your point. No, I’m not digging at you (well maybe a little) or trying to insult your intelligence.

    Of course, IPF being as deadly as is it people will look for alternatives since western medicine is entrapped by big pharma and they, as we all know, only want to create customers.  Some would probably say similar comments about the group “The Truth about Cancer” because after all the CPA that runs it couldn’t possibly know anything about medicine and since he lost both of his parents to cancer, his grief has blinded him to reality. But wait – thousands have been saved – maybe it was the placebo effect.

    Places like the Philippines cannot afford medicine so they rely on old herbal remedies (Chinese and other) that have proven reliable for thousands of years. Did they start that way or was there a dark and sinister personality initially at work that fortuitously was healed by trying poisoned ideology that wasn’t the placebo effect? I don’t know it was before my time and that means I never say their brain and couldn’t prove they had one.

    Me? – I learned something long ago – reality is often stranger than fiction and when you or I start our circuitous logic from the wrong perspective, we almost always end at the wrong conclusion.  But who could blame us? After all, we’re just dying from a horrible disease and should accept that there is no help for us or so it seems.

    @drandyhall – great news Andy.  It would be good to share the protocol specifics as my doctor is wanting more info and wants to connect with other doctors here and elsewhere that are having success with a more specific laser treatment.  I would like so much to hear about it too because I see a grassroots possibility and panel here and of course I want the most accurate protocols available.  We are at the right place at the right time… Steve

    Hey Andy – I understand juggling and hope to prioritize someday soon – kidding I do that a lot and learned I had to in order to survive running 3 corporations simultaneously and a 4-state chapter of  American Telemarketing Association back in the day.

    The panel/forum idea will take a while to formulate but if you have a list or someone who can put it on an excel spreadsheet, I can post it on Google Docs and give you and Charlene access to see progress on it once we decide what to do.

    Thank you for being the one who has started this by your brave decision to self treat a few years ago. What I really enjoyed about starting a company was watching it take on a life of its own.  Talk soon… – Steve

    Hi Charlene – Yes Andy should be a major part of this panel. If it is to work it will take the open efforts of all having success and sharing their doctor’s contact information.  I can eventually have a simple sharing mechanism for these new doctors and be an initial contact.  This started with John saying pioneer and my doctor wanting to talk to John’s doctor @caneelbay1.  This concept can grow legs far beyond anything we have thought of here so far. – Steve

    @drandyhall – Well said, Andy.  As a marketer, I see ways to really increase exposure and bring in new eyes and minds.  Dr. Harrington should be involved as this will eventually lead to more sales of the K-laser. So I will work on some ideas for this and send them to Charlene and you and anyone else that has a doctor they want to bring in and how we might go about that as patients w the lung disease. If you have a list of doctors and want to share it with me privately we can go over what it might look like to get them involved.  Charelene should be kept in the loop too… – Steve

    Hi John – The Philippines we use a strong lemon that looks like a small lime called calamansi (or calamondin) – I like it a lot better than lemon/lime and it is more powerful.  Glad you know about the allicin in garlic.
    Kindly send your doctor’s name and contact info so I can share it with mine.  This could lead to some interesting discoveries.  Maybe Andy would be interested in starting a doctor’s panel – that could definitely help get the word out.  I am sending my doc marketing idea that will help him get more patients over time and starting a panel could really ramp up that benefit to more w IPF, ILD etc. Thanks – Steve

    @caneelbay1,
    Hey John – you can add some fresh red onion too and rotate your different concoctions even go 3X daily when sick.  I had a laser treatment today and shared your previous post with him.  He is onboard and would like to know your doctor’s name. Is your doc in FL? Thanks – Steve

    @Debbi

    Hi Debbi – thanks for your kind words. I, fortunately, stumbled across this terrific forum and groups and people searching about IPF since modern medicine has very little answers.

    The good people here know and understand intimately what we are experiencing and will help us through. For some, it is a reality call at first but once that is adjusted to the mask can be dropped and deep experiences shared. I still look for my mask sometimes but it is good to better know where I am headed what will happen.  Sorta helps create any urgency about life and be an effective witness thereof.

    Lots of folks have very good and interesting posts and exploring them all when you have time will be a benefit to you and your loved ones.  I have shared a few videos and forum posts with my wife.  We have been apart a year and when I return to the Philippines she will not be getting back the same man that left.  – Hopefully, his name will still be Steve though. hahahahah Enjoy – Steve

    Hey Jack – awesome results.  I am experiencing similar results and about to start week two of 3X treatments.  Initially, we started with the wrong protocol because some K-lasers are preset w specific programs w no manual option. Once I asked about the protocol and went to Dr. Hall as was good.

    Steve.
