Hi, Andy, and welcome!
To get acquainted with what to do, how and when, please click where it
says "Files" on the left side of the screen in the light blue box.
There you will find straightforward, detailed information meticulously
put there by Wilhelm, our moderator, and others, regarding what, when
and how. Also, I strongly suggest you purchase Dr. Budwig's book, "The
Oil Protein Cookbook." You can purchase it for less than 10 dollars,
including shipping and handling, by going to either www.half.com or to
www.barleans.com. That cookbook will help greatly in explaining further
about the mechanics of the diet, and also has over 500 recipes to allow
a person to get as much flax oil, ground flax seed and other healing
food items into the diet as possible.
Some things you might do immediately for your dad are to expose him to
daily fresh air and sunlight, the latter being an especially
significant part of Dr. Budwig's protocol. It also may help to make the
room he is sleeping in as dark as possible at night, since I have read
that the immune system does its best job of rebuilding and healing when
the pupils of the eye are allowed to shut down completely during sleep.
If he needs to get up to go to the bathroom at night, you can keep a
small flashlight on his nightstand.
Best wishes for healing,
Elliot
