Elaine was raised until the age of three in a small town in Pennsylvania, before her family moved to LaSalle, Michigan, just north of the Ohio border. She attended Monroe High School where she studied business. She later took courses in business in college.

Her marriage at a young age sadly ended in divorce, yet gave her four beautiful children. She worked in a factory until her children were grown, then left the factory to begin her own business.

She was again married, this time happily. Her husband joined her in her business until his death in 2005.

Elaine owned and operated Woodland Embroidery in Marion, Michigan. Today Elaine lives in Kentucky and owns and operates American Designs.

Elaine also spends much of her time listening to, and giving encouragement to, others who are going through the same kind of ordeal that she went through.

I was first diagnosed with a brain tumor in November of 1994. I had surgery after four days of steroid therapy to shrink the tumor (reduce the swelling). The tumor was 6x7 cm, and was located in the left forebrain area. Surgery removed this area in the center of the tumor to 3x2 cm. The tumor was diagnosed as a large cell lymphoma (Bcell). This was followed by chemotherapy (systemic treatment) for approximately four months; being treated for a week and then recovering for three weeks.

After the last systemic treatment at University Hospital Ireland Cancer Center, we were treated at the Cleveland Clinic for the BBBD procedure. The BBBD procedure is a process where a catheter is run up in the artery to the C-6 vertebrae in which a 5% mannose solution is used to shrink the blood/brain barrier membrane. Then the chemotherapy drug is introduced to the brain at a much higher concentration than the systemic was. The tumor was gone during this therapy, but came back after the second month. A different chemical was used, but the tumor still grew.

The first chemical was Methotrexate and the second chemical was carboplatin. We then went to the oral drug Temodar. During that time, I was introduced to Protocel®. I began taking the Protocel® with the Temodar. I was also taking a vitamin supplement at that time. The tumor again came back.

I was informed that the vitamins I was taking were way too strong in vitamins C and E, which made the cancer cells resistant to Protocel®. So, I stopped taking the vitamin supplements and increased my dosage of Protocel® to 1/3 teaspoon, and shortened the time between doses to four hours instead of six hours.

The tumor disappeared, and has remain gone for the past seven months. My last MRI proved that. I have been clear of cancer for the past seven months.

I am still taking the Protocel®, but will stop for three months, then go back on it for three months. I feel that six months of taking Protocel® is a long enough time because I am post cancer free.

I have had no ill effects from taking the Protocel®, but the chemotherapy treatments really did beat up my body physically and mentally. The cancer was only in my brain, but is now gone.

I did do other things to help my body’s immune system such as juicing, and drank and ate only chemical and hormone free organically raised foods.
