Re: [Felvtalk] Vit C therapy Sally Snyder Jewell
Sally, Please tell me EXACTLY what INTRAVENOUS ASCORBATE is. I have a FELV+ cat who shows no symptoms. Do you recommend this for him? If so, do all vets did this? I live in the Phila Pa area. Also, I have the MEGA C but someone on this list (I think) said it may contain something (that over the long haul) may not be good. What is your opinion on this. Thanks.

I have made no attempt to hide that fact, though perhaps doing so might have made me seem more like one of you and less like I was trying to sell you something. However, despite what I do to support my family and my rescue, I am certainly not paid to spend time posting here about the successes I have seen with intravenous ascorbate in my cat rescue and answering e-mail questions gratis after my 12-hour work days in an effort to help others save animals. My company does not even sell vitamin C for animals and I have never once offered to sell anything to anyone here, so to accuse me of selling snake oil and preying on people's love of their pets borders on libel. There is no ulterior sales motive here - I am simply trying to help. I am also, as you accurately point out, a published contributing author, and if memory serves, this is the first time I have ever been publicly chastised for sharing information in the interest of helping animals. Perhaps it is really true that people do not value the things they get for free. I first posted my experience with vitamin C here because I love animals and people and want to see these cats have a chance of survival and yes, help their owners to have hope where there would otherwise seem none. It would have been self-serving not to, or to disseminate the information for profit, as many might have. After all, there aren't many options for saving these cats and it seemed to me that some might actually appreciate and find my experience useful. I truly did not expect such a firestorm of skepticism and negativity and I am beginning to regret my initial decision to share at all, though thankfully there have been some to embrace and implement what I have shared, and for them and hopefully many others to follow in our footsteps, it was worth it. The fact that I work in this field affords me knowledge that others may not have - others who are still looking for some of the answers that I have been fortunate enough to discover. I have shared in honesty and with a caring heart and now the information is out there for those who would like to try vitamin C in all forms for their animals. I have not made claims that it will work positively to cure FeLV cats in all cases but have very specifically stated that I don't know what the response would be for cats that are well into the disease process with bone marrow involvement, though I sure intend to find out once we recover from the financial burden of the last three sick cats and their treatments. With the alternative being certain death, my question is, What compassionate, thinking pet owner would deny an animal a chance at life because he or she did not believe that something would work? My vet has now done three clinical trials with three successful outcomes. Had I been skeptical and waited for published clinical trials, all three cats would now be dead. I lost a kitten in November to FIP because we did not use the correct IV ascorbate protocol and because he was perhaps too far into the disease process to be brought back. Do I wish that I had never discovered or used the vitamin C protocol because my heart was crushed over the loss of him? Of course not, for because of what I learned with him we were successful in saving his sister. Every day she is a living reminder that his death was not in vain, and I will never stop trying to save the ones I can with this protocol because I know it works and it's really all I have. It seemed logical to me that others would appreciate the opportunity to hear of and try this for the animals they love as well, regardless of where or who it came from. Waiting for conventional medicine to understand or embrace this science is costing animals (and humans) their lives but nothing says that their owners and caregivers cannot. We are not talking about an ordinary vitamin as most have come to consider vitamin C. The majority of the world's population has no clue about how far-reaching and powerful ascorbic acid truly is for destroying viral and
Re: [Felvtalk] Vit C therapy Sally Snyder Jewell
Hi, Susan, Intravenous ascorbate is vitamin C in the form of sodium ascorbate administrated intravenously (directly into the animal's veins) at high doses in veterinary medicine. It is typically mixed with sodium chloride and administered over the course of a few hours, depending on how much vitamin C the cat will be receiving. I have used it with my FeLV cat Linus for his lymphoma and was able to put him into remission for going on two years now when the diagnosing vet had told me he had about 4-6 weeks to live in early 2008. We administered it over the course of a year (2x a week for three months), six months off, then 2x a week for three more months). We did not reverse his FeLV with the low dose he was getting (1,000 mg per pound of body weight). However, I am going to be trying this therapy more intensively for the next young FeLV that comes into my care, for I truly believe that if I can administer the ascorbate in the early stages of the disease before it has a chance to progress too far the ascorbate will reverse it. For information on why and how intravenous vitamin C kills these viruses, see Dr. Fred Klenner's paper, Clinical Guide to the Use of Vitamin C, reprinted in its entirety at this link: http://www.seanet.com/~alexs/ascorbate/198x/smith-lh-clinica l_guide_1988.htm The writings of retired veterinarian Dr. Wendell Belfield also cover many conditions that he used vitamin C for as far back as the 1960s. Tragically, few vets paid attention to this paper and the profound evidence of how well this therapy works in vet medicine. Dr. Belfield's paper is here: http://www.seanet.com/~alexs/ascorbate/197x/belfield-w-j_int _assn_prev_med-1978-v2-n3-p10.htm The protocol would be rather intensive for a cat with advanced FeLV but if the cat is early into the disease I believe that administration of up to 2,000 mg per pound of body weight for a number of consecutive days (perhaps 10-11) would kill the virus based on Dr. Klenner's explanation. I have seen it kill FIP in a young kitten when administered for 11 consecutive days at nearly 2,000 mg per pound. If you intend to try this for your cat, you should contact me and let me know so that I can give you more specific directions or give your vet the name of my vet. Again, though, I have not yet tried to reverse FeLV in a cat who has had it for years and am not sure if it is even possible. A lot of it would depend if the virus has progressed to the stage that it is already in the cat's bone marrow. Still, being the kind of person I am, I will probably still try that just to satisfy my own interest and, of course, help others to know whether it works. Having just lost three companion animals I have just been so overwhelmed with veterinary expenses that my funds are too low to consider it right now. But as sure as the sun rises in the east, I will. :) FYI, I spoke with a nurse in Pennsylvania this week and she said that there are definitely vets in Pennsylvania who are doing this treatment on animals. It is completely safe and nontoxic for the animal. Regarding the Mega-C Plus, it is an excellent supplement and completely safe for the cat. It was formulated by Dr. Belfield himself. People are misinformed about vitamin C in general, hence the reason I am getting such a barrage of backlash over posting this information. I believe they are just scared and of course, skeptical based on their misinformation.

[Felvtalk] Suggestion
Good morning everyone, I'm new to the list, so please take my suggestion with the appropriate weight, but it seems to me that every approach to coping with, keeping at bay, and dealing with the ravages of these diseases and their associated symptoms should be welcomed and left to individual feline caretakers to investigate with the vets we are working with. It is understandable that emotions can run high..so many have lost precious little lives, sometimes after great expense, hope and ultimate failure. It's the sharing of that experience, receiving suggestions, asking questions.that makes this such a valuable resource for those of us dealing with the everyday joys and setbacks of our caretaking roles. I can only speak for myself, but I truly welcome every suggestion offered. It takes courage to share what can be viewed as outside the traditional box therapies. As a user of these posts, I am actively seeking any treatment that might enhance the lives of my little ones. I think we all are. Just my little two cents from SoCal this morning. Thanks to you all and blessings of the season!

I thought some of you might appreciate more information about how vitamin C has been used in medicine over the decades to help you better understand its power and application in veterinary medicine.

Re: [Felvtalk] Suggestion
Welcome, this is in general a great list! I totally agree - and I've been on the list for maybe 6+ years. I've tried a number of things, and very open to trying other things that come along. We need all the help and suggestions we can get.

It is understandable that emotions can run high..so many have lost precious little lives, sometimes after great expense, hope and ultimate failure. It's the sharing of that experience, receiving suggestions, asking questions.that makes this such a valuable resource for those of us dealing with the everyday joys and setbacks of our caretaking roles. I can only speak for myself, but I truly welcome every suggestion offered. It takes courage to share what can be viewed as outside the traditional box therapies. As a user of these posts, I am actively seeking any treatment that might enhance the lives of my little ones. I think we all are. Just my little two cents from SoCal this morning. Thanks to you all and blessings of the season!
