Henna never bores me at all. It always presents something new. There are so many uses. We see it in traditional body art (mehndi), natural hair care, artwork, and medicinal uses.

I have always felt that henna was put on the earth for very important reasons. Think about the regions in which it grows in. Those countries are all very hot countries. Henna was put their as a mercy to those people. Henna’s cooling properties benefit them.

We have several clients who are now using henna to bring relief to their cancer treatments. We have a few of them using different drugs, but similarly all suffer from hand-foot syndrome. This is a syndrome where your hands and feet burn, and feel so hot you can barely function. Henna is a mercy to those cancer patients as well.

Here I have provided some of my favorite ressources, articles, and recipes that can help us all learn more about dealing with hand-foot syndrome and bringing some natural relief to the pain it causes.

I want to thank each and everyone person who has helped a cancer patient get relief with henna. For telling others, and sharing this information over the web. I myself am so happy to hear that in fact, henna has been giving relief to those people! I always see good in henna. It seems to radiate good times, and spirits.

My dad also had cancer. I don’t talk about this too much, honestly, I don’t. I mean I can talk about it, but I don’t really bring it up. He had 80% prostrate cancer. So he was going to have the surgery. He had the surgery at a local hospital by one of the “supposed” best doctors. It was a success, but his after care wasn’t good enough in my opnion. I don’t know what happened, but four days later he died suddenly in the hospital of a heart attack. This happened in Montreal, Canada. I had read some stories about c.difficile and thought perhaps that was might have happened to him, but I lived in the USA at the time, so it was hard to do something from far. I remember him telling me he had diarhea, and had trouble breathing. They were about to run a tube up into his nose, and as suddenly as they did that, he started having a heart attack. My sister was right there with him. I can just remember the moment she told me, and my screams, my tears.

How then had I wished to have been right there with him when he had the surgery, and in his recovery time. Don’t any of you ever get to the point where you have to ask yourself the what if’s. NEVER. Don’t waste your time and energy being angry or upset at you would have, should have, could have done. The point is that you should have and could have! You’ll just end up with too many regrets, if you don’t act right away.

But there was nothing I could do. He died, and a part of me felt lost. I felt like not only did I lose him, but that I had lost a part of my whole family. He was what attached me to them. He was the one who accepted me as who I am. Not one day, did he EVER make me feel like he didn’t want me. Never did he make me feel different. Not everything was perfect, and that’s life, but I felt like he took us all in when he didn’t have to. I felt that I owed him, and I completely took care of everything for him afterwards. He’ll be missed, and my kids they’ll miss out too. They barely got to know him. To my father, Lance Carryl, who did the right thing. Going on 6 years of his passing: January 29, 2002: age 48.
