A very dear friend of mine has just been diagnosed with metastized melanoma, and is due to start treatment tomorrow.
Cancer is something I have not had to deal with up to now, and as a consequence I am very ignorant about the subject. If anybody can recommend any good websites/books that can educate me on the subject, I would appreciate it.
And for anyone reading this if you could spare a minute and send some positive thoughts out into the universe I would also appreciate it - my friend is 36 years old and has 2 small sons.

Thanks

Gavin
 
Hi Gavin,

Firstly sorry to hear about your friend, it is shocking news for all concerned I'm sure. I am in a great position to comment on this one as I have just finished (literally a week ago), the last of chemotherapy treatments for a cancer called Burkitts Lymphoma. I am 30 with a 1.5 year old son and so know how your friend must be feeling.

My advice to you as their good friend is to treat them as you always would. Any cancer treatment becomes over-whelming after not too long, with hospitals, nurses, treatment etc. and my best times in hospital was when my friends came and talked to me about anything other than me, or my sickness.

Laptop1's link to nutrition and cancer is a good one, I would suggest to explore that more, there is definitely a link. I am not sure what treatment your friend will be getting, but if it is like mine, then the best thing you can do is help his/her partner and children by babysitting, cooking dinners for the freezer and stuff like that, I know it sounds strange but really there is not a lot you can do to make a person going through chemo feel much better physically until the treatment ends, but helping their loved ones has a flow-on effect of helping ease the stress all round and make it a more healing environment.

Best of luck to everyone involved, cancer can be beaten, I am in remission and do not plan to let this horrible disease take any more of my life, food is the best medicine in the long run, remember to keep the body in an Alkaline state.

Here are some websites for reading:

http://www.thefurrymonkey.co.uk/index.htm
http://www.youngcancerspouses.org/
http://www.nutritioncancer.com/index.htm
http://www.avemar.com/avemar_faq.php#4

The last link by the way is something I took in the latter stages of my chemo which helped with the side-effects of treatment, might be worth looking at.

Cheers

Very sorry to hear about your plight.

Cancer is something that I believe is inherent in all of us, and surrounds each of us in different ways.

I won't go into detail...

Please read the attached link. Then re read it. Then action it. It comes from my friend and mentor. A special person in his own right.

If it helps just one person, then it had been an unqualified success in my eyes.

May your god or spirit of whatever faith travel with you.

For an inspirational book about someone who has been there and beaten it, try 'It's Not About the Bike' by Lance Armstrong, the Tour de France rider. I bought it for a friend when he was diagnosed with cancer (and who since has made a full recovery), and he said that he found it very helpful in keeping a positive attitude going when times were tough.

I'm no expert and don't know much about cancer treatment, so this certainly doesn't amount to a personal recommendation.

But i am aware of this organisation who (as i understand) claim to have a "cure" for breast cancer, all types of skin cancers and malignant growths within 4 inches of the skins surface.

I think this is a fairly new technology and a non-mainstream medicine treatment that i heard of listening to Internet radio.

Check out the website and the facts for yourself, listen to the radio interviews on the website etc.

It certainly sounds promising, and worth considering, investigating & bearing in mind, perhaps if only as a last resort etc.

Frequently Asked Questions
The following are the questions most frequently asked by
patients:

Q1. What is the success rate of this therapy?

A1. Since the energy transfer occurring in the cancerous tissue,
during the L.I.E.S.H. Therapy, is one sufficient to generate death
of the cells by suffocation, all pre-conditioned neoplastic tissue
will die when exposed to the particular LASER’s light,
independently from the nature and structure of the tissue where
the cancer is occurring.
In other words, as long as the entire neoplastic mass is exposed
to the LASER light, for the correct amount of time, the success is
complete and the results, as well as the healing stages, are
always the same.


Q2. What type of cancer can be treated with this therapy?

A2. Again, the L.I.E.S.H. Therapy is simply a much improved form of
Photo-Dynamic Therapy and in principle it may be used for any
type of cancer; at this time however we are only handling Breast
cancer, all types of Skin cancer and any other type of malignant
growth occurring within 4 inches of the surface of the skin.


Q3. If the results are always the same, why can’t this therapy be
used for cancer of the internal organs?

A3.We repeat, due to the type of energy transfer occurring in the
preconditioned tissue when exposed to this particular light, any
type of cancerous tissue will dye, but for internal organs
occurrences, it would be necessary to first access the location in
question; this would render the procedure at least partially
invasive and therefore not suited for an outpatient environment,
which is what we are offering at this time.


Q4. How much pain can a patient expect to face?

A4. Actually, not much discomfort is involved; the pain is limited
to the initial injection of local anesthetic.


Q5. How long does the full treatment take?

A5. That depends on the size of the neoplastic growth, but on
average the full treatment requires about 5 to 7 days, with daily
visit to our MD’s office for no more than two hours.


Q6. What kind of side effect can a patient expect?

A6. The first couple of days the patient might experience a mild
soreness of the treated area, after that a general feeling of well
being takes over.


Q7. How long does a patient need to wait before he or she can
determine if the treatment was effective?

A7. Besides the feeling of improved general health, before the
patients can return home, we send them to an independent clinic
for the appropriate follow-up tests. We show all patients the
results which can confirm that the tumor mass is dead or dying.


Q8. What type and extent of follow-up does this treatment entail?

A8. We encourage our patients to keep in touch with us, after
they return home; we will help with any question or doubt they
might have. We want our patients to understand everything that
is happening to them and to feel good about their cancer
experience because, after all, their cancer is dead!
Still we ask our patients to go for follow-up testing, every three
months for a year, following our treatment; we ask them to send
us the results and we provide to them the needed test
prescriptions. After the first three months, if patients so wish,
they would be able to undergo a MRI to verify their condition; we
however do not encourage such a drastic type of testing.


Q9. What about metastasis and reoccurrences?

A9. Since, as for any other malady, nobody can totally eliminate
the chance of reoccurrences, we also cannot absolutely
guarantee that the cancer will never return; with out method, we
simply greatly reduce the chances of reoccurrence. However
should the cancer come back at any time, it can be retreated in
full, as many times as needed, due to the total absence of
negative side-effects intrinsic of our treatment.


Q10. What restrictions are indicated for a patient during and
following the week of treatment.

A10. None; there are no restrictions in activities or diet
prescribed to the patients.
We suggest to simply control the excessive euphoria that sooner
or later takes over the individual receiving our therapy; however
we do not discourage celebration parties!

Q11. Exactly how expensive is it to receive this treatment?

A11. Although the price varies, depending on the size and
number of the malignant growths, it is still an amount comparable
to deductible and co-pay covered by a patient undergoing
surgical removal of a tumor.

THE TRUTH THEY DON'T WANT US TO KNOW?

But why or how then could the rest of the medical establishment not embrace her work with enthusiasm and open arms? Could it possibly be because of the billions of pounds generated by the Drug Companies - and the serious threat to their turnovers that might arise if her concoctions were adopted as formal treatments? And could this also explain why her six nominations for the Nobel Prize have not succeeded in becoming actual awards?

Thats a very interesting issue when you look at the medicine/pharmacology industry.

I found this via a link from www.prisonplanet.com. The Prisonplanet link is entitled "Cancer breakthrough banned by U.S. government".

It again refers to Dr. Johanna Budwig like the document options has posted.
 
Hi Gavin,

Sorry to hear about your friend.

This charity has a very good reputation in the field of alternative and complimentary medicine.

http://www.pennybrohncancercare.org/

After posting this message, I discovered that you are based in Singapore and that you didn't say in which country your friend lives. If your friend doesn't live in the UK, I do think it is worth your while contacting this charity as they probably would have a database listing of recommended worldwide agencies engaged in the same field as them.

With best wishes,

Fibonelli

I believe we can heal Cancer etc. By going into very deep meditation. Perfect concentration or Samadhi. Heard of a guy who did that.

Natural cure for cancer & most other chronic illness - Gerson Therapy

Dying To Have Known
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7357629140536485998#

Gerson Therapy Tape 1 (of 4)
http://video.google.com/videoplay?d...9&ei=iIioS6z9K47o-QaJkrDKCQ&q=gerson+therapy#

http://www.gerson.org/
The Gerson Institute is a non-profit organization located in San Diego, California, dedicated to the alternative, non-toxic treatment of disease, using the Gerson Therapy.

The Gerson Therapy is a safe, natural treatment developed by Dr. Max Gerson in the 1920’s that uses organic foods, juicing, coffee enemas, detoxification and natural supplements to activate the body’s ability to heal itself. Over the past 60 years, thousands of people have used the Gerson Therapy to recover from so-called “incurable” diseases such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease and arthritis.

Founded by Charlotte Gerson (Dr. Gerson’s daughter) in 1977, we are the true source of information on the original, unmodified, proven Gerson Therapy. We refer people to licensed Gerson clinics and treatment centers, practitioners and caregivers. We also train health professionals, patients and others who want to learn this natural therapy. Visit our STORE for a wide selection of educational books, audio and video tapes.

You have the power to heal yourself. We can give you the tools and show you how!


Really worthwhile to spend a day watching these tapes & absorbing this information. Very educational.
 
This makes me so angry you sick ****. Praying on people with cancer is so ****ing low. **** the store and the books and the videos.

This treatment does not work and could not work. Anyone with cancer should go and see a real doctor and not some scumbag alternative snake oil peddler.

Talk to the specialists and get their opinion - they do know what they are doing and is the best chance any one with cancer has.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is your success rate?

Success rates with any alternative therapy are extremely difficult to obtain. For cases to be used in any study, potential patients must meet many requirements, among which is that they must never have been treated in any way for the disease being studied. The majority of the cases we see are those of patients for which conventional cancer treatment has failed. While we are able to help many of these cases, often achieving long term cures, we cannot use such cases as part of a success study. One study of the effectiveness of the Gerson Therapy was published in Alternative Therapies magazine. Please view this Melanoma Study.
 
**** off you deluded racist ******.

It's a load of **** praying on terminally ill peoples hopes and fears to make money.
