Special thanks to and Trudy and (of course) Deb, my sis

I have been a long time in posting to this group, although I have

lurked, read, and appreciated all of your postings. The participants

of this newsgroup have been a resource for links to alternative

therapies. I thank you for this information and in advance for future

information that will come forth.

Cancer, just the word, has to be one of the most evil and devastating

sounds uttered by mankind. It evokes fear and fright & it exposes

weakness and vulnerability. Yet if we choose, the result of this

intrusion upon life, good things may come as a product.

Although I am ill qualified to make suggestions as to how one with

cancer should proceed, I offer my experience that it may benefit

someone.

One year ago, last April 2000, my wife age 42, was suffering with hip

and groin pain, pains that brought her to tears during the night.

After going to the doctor and receiving muscle relaxing drugs and mild

pain killers, there was no change. It was thought that she was

suffering from arthritis or early osteoporosis. She is a teacher of

twenty years and before returning for the 2000-2001 school year, I

insisted she have a complete physical. This was late August of 2000.

After a mammogram they discovered a lump in her left breast less than

one inch in diameter. A subsequent needle biopsy confirmed our worse

fears, malignant breast cancer. No lymph nodes were swollen but it

was recommended that a mastectomy followed by chemo and radiation be

performed. September 13th, I will never forget that date, as I spent

the entire night on the Internet researching cancer. I found sites

concerning raw and living foods, laetrile, gerson

therapy, Hulda , Johanna Budwig, Flax seed, household toxins,

Rife technology, Zappers, Syncronometers, CoQ-10, MSN, MGN, and last

but not least " life style changes " . September 15th we engaged.

Cleaned house, tossed all meats, dairy, banished processed foods, went

raw, and no white poisons. I put my credit card to use on the

internet and purchased numerous cancer modalities. We still did not

feel safe. We sought second opinions, first a private oncologist that

came very highly recommended, and secondly the University of Nebraska

at Omaha. We were given the same recommendations. At this point we

felt she had a very good chance for curbing the spread of the cancer,

but she was still suffering immensely from pain in her hips, lower

back, and groin. As a prerequisite of surgery, she was required to

have a MRI and bone scan. We did that locally and to our total

dismay, it was revealed to us that she had cancer in her bones. Not

just a single bone, but throughout her skeleton. Her knees, hips,

ileum, sternum, ribs, spine, essentially everything except her skull.

A bone marrow sample was performed and confirmed the worst possible

scenario, metastasized breast cancer to the bone, stage four. Date

October 5th. I had, as a precaution, already made an appointment at

Mayo Clinic, Rochester Minnesota, for what I though was going to be

another of our second/second opinions concerning the lump and hence,

called and confirmed. We packed for a three to four week stay, as

instructed by Mayo, thinking there would be clinical studies or a

modality that would give us hope. We arrived on a Monday, first

appointment Tuesday at 6:45 AM and continued through the day with

numerous exams including stereoscopic x-rays etc. At 5:30 P.M., the

same day, we met with three specialists who had reviewed our tests.

The verdict: get your affairs in order. Upon pressuring the lead

specialist for a professional prognosis he stated, " You will be on

morphine by January " . Upon further prodding for the time involved,

i.e. " How much time do we have " he said, " Two months to possibly a

year " . I asked the specialist, " How in the world can you call this

breast cancer when she has been hurting in her hips since last April

and the minute lump was found in September? " . He must of realized

how stern I was for answers as his reply was, " Let me tell you how we

developed nomenclature for cancers. The first

cancer that is found is biopsied under a light microscope and a

picture of the cell structure is sketched. Any subsequent cancers

that appear are biopsied and if the cell structure is similar they are

classified as a metastasized form of the primary cancer " . I thought,

what bunk, as I wanted proof as in nuclear magnetic resonance

spectrometry, cell studies, DNA analysis, or anything other than a

non-artists rendition of cell shape. We headed back to Nebraska the

next day in total shock. I was numb and hardly remember the trip. I

did however remember one statement concerning the stereoscopic

x-rays. The X-ray specialist said there appears to be healing sites

in the ribs and sternum. I asked how he differentiated these from

active cancer sites and he replied, " They appear as if osteoporosis

has set in which is different than active cancer sites " . This was the

ray of hope that I believe got us back home. After arriving home I

could not get the words " healing sites " out of my mind. We had made a

drastic dietary\environmental change just 20 days prior to the Mayo

visit and I knew something was happening. Let me explain, this was

nothing intuitive or spiritual but just plain apparent, as I had lost

18 lbs with the diet change. Not only the weight loss confirmed my

hypothesis, but the total digestive health I was now experiencing was

nothing less than phenomenal. I was a 6-8 pill-a-day xyantac user

prior to the diet change, and now was acid reflux free! I could go on

with details concerning our nutritional\life style changes but feel I

have said enough tonight. This is a long posting and I apologize for

my rambling. As this is my first posting to any newsgroup, I would

appreciate responses. Thank you Deb (dear Sis) for breaking me out.
