RETpositive’s founder, our North Star, passed away from Stage IV NSCLC in February 2022. She was deeply committed to finding next generation RET therapies. We continue the fight in her honor and all of our fellow RET warriors as we work together to make RET-altered cancer just another chronic disease.

"I was already stage IV by the time I was diagnosed in late 2015. I was a 34-year-old never-smoker with a 4-year-old, pregnant with my second daughter while still working as a full-time physician (Neuroradiologist). When I developed a dry, nagging cough in the last few weeks of my pregnancy, my Obstetrician and I wanted to wait until the delivery to get a chest X-ray to avoid any radiation to my unborn baby. The day after my delivery, my chest X-Ray showed a lung mass and pleural effusions, and I was put on antibiotics for presumed pneumonia (even though I never had a fever). Five days later my effusion was drained, leading to my diagnosis with NSCLC. It had already spread to my brain and bones. This terminal diagnosis came as a complete shock. A quick google search informed me that my chances of being alive in five years were about 1%.

"I started off my maternity leave with gamma knife to my solitary brain metastasis and I started chemotherapy (Carboplatin plus Alimta) right away. I had a pleurex catheter placed for my recurrent effusions which came out eight months later. Luckily for me, my oncologist sent my tumor sample for genetic testing and a RET driver mutation was found. Although there were no RET-targeted treatments at the time of my diagnosis, finding RET was still a source of hope.

"After first-line chemotherapy stopped working, I tried (and failed) immunotherapy,  tried (and failed) one of the earlier multikinase inhibitors (cabozantinib), and I developed liver mets to add to my collection, before losing all of my hair with second-line chemotherapy (Docetaxol plus carboplatin.) By the end of the summer in 2017, I was bald and entirely dependent on oxygen, even at rest, and nearly out of treatment options. When the Selpercatinib trial opened at my institution, the Cleveland Clinic, in September 2017 I was the first to enroll, and within three weeks I was no longer oxygen-dependent. This first-generation RET-targeting tyrosene kinase inhibitor (TKI) gave me my life back and by that October, I was trick-or-treating with my kids (without any supplemental oxygen!).

"I’ve now been on Selpercatinib (Retevmo) for 3.5+ years and counting, and have experienced first-hand that medical research does save lives. Most recently in December 2020 my scans did show some small pleural lesions and a nodule in my lung that have been very slowly progressing, for which I underwent stereotactic radiation in January 2021. Most recent scans were encouraging, and I've learned how important it is to take everything one day at a time. My daughters are now five- and ten-years-old and I'm thankful for every day!"

Baking soda never works out well
Flavor Name: 1. Sensitive Mint, Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I don't know why I decided to chance it but it didn't take long for my teeth to start aching. I realized baking soda might be the cause of my toothache issues when I switched between a few and realized the baking soda ones were accompanied by aching. I think I went with this because it claims to be for sensitivity and I thought the nhap would help whatever the baking soda affected but not the case. If you have tooth ache, consider it might actually be the toothpaste and don't just go looking for "sensitive" labels. This might work in combination with other toothpaste. I.e. not multiple times a day but once a day and a different one for other brushing. I've noticed not being as able to tell when it's been a while since I brushed. This was the main change so it might be effective at cleaning. The tube is metal and hard to press but the paste consistency is less firm than others so it works out. It didn't take much to get the paste out. It gives a light foam. The taste is not sweet. It's tolerable but borders on bad.

So excited to read this book!!
Format: Paperback
Love Eileen McKusick and her work. I’m deep diving into her books and wealth of knowledge. I finished her first book Tuning the Biofield and can’t wait to start this one. If you haven’t heard of her then I highly recommend listening and going to her YouTube channel. I bought her tuning forks and I’m a huge believer in frequency healing. Learning all I can for my family and as a caregiver in career. This book will give me a deeper understanding of the electric body and I’m ready for it!!

Brilliant unique perspective. Life changing.
Format: Kindle
This is hands down my most recommended book for anyone interested in emotional health. The straightforward, yet scientific writing is extremely well edited, and easy to follow. The philosophy is brilliant. Taking your time working through it, and creating audio meditations for each chapter to get more out of it is critical through the process. I discovered this book on a deep rabbit hole and am so happy that this information is out there. Thank you Eileen! I look forward to learning more! My deepest gratitude for what you have created with this whole system! The book recommendations in Electric Body, Electric Health are also brilliant. William David The Harmonics of Sound for example is another one that demands some meditation to absorb.
