ABOUT ME

Hi, I am Tracy and I want to share what I learned to overcome Cancer and create my own miracles.

Hello! I was terrified, anxious, and confused when I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and didn’t know where to turn for help. My goal is to put all I’ve learned about healing on a single website. To beat the odds, I required resources, experiences, and knowledge, which resulted in the Miracle Mindset Method. My oncologist said I had 1-3 years to live if I didn’t follow his protocol in the summer of 2019. Instead of following his protocol, I developed my own method. I feel the method’s daily discipline is why I’m still alive and thriving. I’m sharing this so you can create and be your own Miracle. I am not a doctor and I am not a health expert.

The biggest obstacle to overcome cancer, I believe, is overcoming the fear, anxiety and sadness that can come with cancer. I believe when you can replace fear with faith, anxiety with knowingness, and sadness with loving life, miracles can happen. Replacing these dreadful emotions is not instantaneous. I believe it takes loving yourself and choosing you! The disciplines all take time and effort and you must choose YOU to make the time. It’s taken me since 2016 when I was diagnosed with stage 4 neuroendocrine cancer to figure this out! I want to make the journey easier for others. I have gained a wealth of knowledge in my journey and created the miracle mindset method to prepare your body for healing.

Why should you listen to me? Despite having incurable cancer, I am living, loving, and thriving, and I know that everything always works out for me. I know I’ll be healthy and wealthy until I’m 106……why? Because of the miracle mindset I’ve created within which creates Faith over Fear.

Prior to my diagnosis in 2016 I was your normal high achiever. I was running my own insurance agency, single mom to three amazing kids with no financial or time support, great friends and dating a good looking man. I was your typical single mom running kids around to sports, engaged in community events, networking for my business, etc – the one thing I lacked was time for myself. Everything else seemed to be running smoothly. I had gone to the ER twice due to pain in my ab area and was told nothing was wrong with me. So imagine my surprise when I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer that started in my pancreas and traveled to my liver. I was in shock. The cancer they say I have is 1% rare—the same cancer that took Steve Jobs and Aretha Franklin’s lives. I used to believe that if Steve Jobs couldn’t figure it out, how could I? Throughout my journey, I realized I might have what he didn’t- a miracle mindset. I’m afraid I won’t be able to ask him.

Because the tumors were the size of ping pong balls, they had to remove half the pancreas, a good portion of the liver, 29 lymph nodes, and a perfectly healthy spleen and gallbladder. WHoo Hoo! I was declared cancer-free! That was simple! I carried on with my life as usual…always busy and not taking the time to truly heal.

I couldn’t keep food in my stomach a few months later. I was taking 8 Imodium per day and had seen three specialists and was on their medications. I sat on the porcelain throne to work and wondered…

At the one-year milestone cat scan review, they informed me that I was still cancer-free. I asked the oncologist and team why my body couldn’t keep food in… they said they did not know why. A week later, I got the call…. My liver surgeon apologized for missing four tumors, one of which was next to the portal vein and was life threatening if it grew larger, and I was now deemed incurable.

I received my first monthly Sandostatin treatment shot the same day that Hurricane Harvey made landfall in Houston – I remember preparing for the huge needle while watching the rain pour down. The tumors produce a hormone that causes the body to flush, which is why I couldn’t keep food in. The shot suppresses hormone production, allowing the body to keep food in. The shot is also intended to slow the progression of the cancer, but it will not cure it. They have still yet to discover a cure for this type of cancer. A week later, I married my hero in front of all six of our children, two grandchildren, family, and friends. I was so thankful for that shot because I got married on a beach with no bathrooms!

Schedule A Call

In 2018, I had another surgery to remove the portion of my liver containing two larger growing tumors in order to extend my life. In 2019, my oncologist told me that if I did not take a special drug, I would only have 1-3 years to live. (talk about a mind mess!) I did the research on the drug and discovered that it could cause secondary cancers and many additional side effects without even curing the cancer. I said, No, Thank you! What else have you got? That’s when I really immersed myself in healing and learning. In early 2020, I had an ablation procedure that removed the tumor next to the portal vein, which I dubbed “the widow maker.” YAY! A few months later I was told the monthly shot was no longer effective and the remaining tumors were growing faster. In early 2021, I had ablation on the last three tumors that remained. According to the surgeon, obtaining all three was impossible. I had been using the miracle mindset method by this point and had explained to him that yes, it was possible and that I was a miracle. I walked into the hospital and told everyone I was going to be a miracle that day.. Prayed with the surgeon and anesthesiologist thanking God for the miracle they were about to perform getting all three tumors out…. And he did!!!

I felt like a miracle! I was discharged from my monthly treatment. Whoopee!!!
I experienced some stressful life situations and did not apply the strategy consistently, forgetting to use some of the many helpful practices I’d learned and so on. I guess I didn’t learn my lesson! I allowed doubt and fear that the cancer would return to creep back in… I had forgotten about the significance of 100% belief. I forgot to continue to feel amazingly miraculous.

I joined a Facebook group for people with the same type of cancer. After reading numerous posts about how the cancer is in multiple places and the fatigue and pain are so bad many retire or are unable to work, I realized I am a freaking miracle! I do not let those two dictate my life because of everything I have learned.

There are currently several tumors spread throughout the liver. I refer to them as “little boogers.” Last scans on 8/22- some tumors showed no growth and others had minimal growth when compared to three months before. The miracle is… Dr. H, my oncologist, remarked that my body is not behaving as predicted! The biopsy they conducted in 2016 revealed that my cells were multiplying considerably faster than my body actually is doing, and they CANNOT explain it! They expected the tumors to be considerably larger and more numerous. He, too, does not think it is my monthly injection. The FACT that the little boogers are growing slowly and some are Not demonstrates that the Miracle Mindset Method is effective!! I am confident that I will triumph over cancer. I am able to have Faith over Fear because of the daily disciplines. Every day, I ask God/Divine to heal me of cancer. This is a journey of defying the odds, overcoming cancer, and having fun along the way! I’ll be updating the webpage as I discover new tools!
