An Essay on Courage and the Blue Light Frequency Device

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I have heard from many group members who have written offline about

their concerns of treating cancer with Rife techniques.

I had a letter recently from a reader I want to share with you,

because it addresses not only those concerns, but so much more of what

have tried to provide at my nothing-for-sale-information-only

site www.alternativetherapyadvice.com which is currently Number 1

on Yahoo out of 24,300,000 sites.

From the email bag, a reader has written

05:08:47 -0000, " Xxxx " said:

Dear Dr. Berger,

Let me honor both you and your daughter on your courage to travel the

route of alternative therapy. I understand that when you are out there

alone, taking the responsibility so many of us rush to throw off to

our doctors, it can get scary. This is especially true when something

negative happens that causes you to " second guess " decisions you have

made.

A number of things can cause the white blood cell count to drop, such

as infections and viral-induced autoimmune disorders. But it is human

nature for us to jump to the worst possible conclusions, so we jump

and think about bone marrow diseases or leukemia.

Instead, let's start simple. Let's assume, at least for the time

being, that it is the blue light, rather than some dreaded condition,

that is responsible. After all, we know over-stimulation of the immune

system can destroy white blood cells. Perhaps six hours of therapy

each day is too aggressive and is stimulating just such a response.

About " Second Guessing " :

When white counts get down or below 2,500, the risk of serious

infection sharply increases. Since your daughter was approaching this

range, the decision to stop the Blue Light Therapy was a wise one, the

correct one. Good for you!

As for the " Blue Light " , I know nothing about it. If you will give me

a bit more information about the device, perhaps I can find out more

to help you. Let's see if changing the way you are using it will

preserve the good it has been doing. No one wants to lose ground when

you are fighting cancer.

Best regards, Dr. S. N. Berger

One of my hopes in constructing this site is to provide the

information you need about frequency devices. It may turn out that the

Blue Light Plasma Machine is the answer to everyone's prayer. Perhaps

just the opposite, and it will prove worthless or even harmful. But

until this site came along, there were very few places you could go to

get answers that were not at least somewhat tinged by monetary

concerns of those selling equipment.

And after you have bought an instrument, or attempted one or another

of the alternative therapies, where can you find answers if something

goes wrong? I ardently hope you can find help at my site.

Another item on my " wish list " is to be able to assemble enough case

histories so I and others who contribute here can offer substantiated

advice to you and everyone else seeking help. To date, there are

simply too many areas in which we have no information to accurately

explain many of the things we encounter in treatment, such as a drop

in white blood cells.

Finally, I would dearly love to be able to offer meaningful

psychological support to anyone using frequency or other alternative

techniques. All of us are sort of naked, surrounded by a swarm of

nay-sayers. They constantly tell us how stupid we are, how dumb we

are, how silly we are to try the things we do in the quest for more

natural healing.

They are wrong, and we need all the courage we can muster to stand and

tell them so.

To clarify: Your letter writer indicated white blood cell counts of

2.8 and then 4.99, and you indicate 2500 as low-normal. All lab

reports I've seen show white blood count in actual numbers, not scaled

by 1000, so aren't both her values far below normal?

I agree that white blood cell count can vary dramatically during

treatment. My understanding is that this can contribute to the herx

effect, where a patient often feels worse as the treatment takes

effect and toxins increase, among other things.

I also agree that we need to watch out for BS and psychology when talking

about treatments and claims. There is far too much supposition and " I

think " out there masquerading as fact, and most doctors and " therapists "

are woefully deficient in their psychological skills. Most think they

are good at patient psych, but in my experience most are simply not.

The protocols of science are good; humans seem to lack the ability to

consistently apply them when the results disagree with what we'd like

to see!
