Al,

Oasis is a pretty good hospital for alt cancer therapy. The place is

sincere and the patients tend to be upbeat. But, I don't believe for one

second those percentages that you gave. I find it hard to believe that they

even said that. Perhaps they said that 50 - 75 % benefitted from the their

therapies. I would say that this is true. One thing that I like about old

Dr Contreras is that he did not exaggerate his success rates when he gave

talks at the CCS convention. Most clinic representatives grossly exaggerate

cure rates and there is no good way to find out the truth.

Your cancer is extremely serious. It is not a good idea to hold off

any therapy for another 3 weeks. There are risks of several different types

of obstruction, of pneumonia, of septicemia, of internal fistulas, and of

liver failure. Can you make it to the Cancer Control Society convention in

LA this coming week end? You might talk to representatives from a number of

clinics to help make an informed decision.

I hope to see you there.

Alfred,

More reasonable stat would be about 20-25% success rate (maybe as high as

35%) for the later stage cancers. I would call and talk to one of the

doctor's assistants at Oasis by calling 888-500-4673 and confirm the stats

for your particular type of cancer and staging.

We refer a lot of people to Oasis who are very late stage and who I worry

might not make it who do. Of course, not everyone does.

Oasis is set up to meet almost anything that could happen while you are

there, whereas some of the other facilities would require you to go to the

emergency room at another hospital if something came up while you were

there. Oasis can handle this because they have surgical facilities, etc.

They work with mind/body...diet, killing cancer cells while building the

immune system, and they use a variety of approaches to do this.

The one caution I make when I refer people to Oasis is more for when you go

home. Many continue home therapy using a catheter. The catheters they use

are prone to infection and you need to be sure that you understand how to

keep it clean and how to use it properly so that you don't run into this

when you get home.

And of most importance is that when you do go home that you continue to

follow the protocol set up by the doctor. This gives your greatest chance of

long term success.

We'd be happy to connect you with some people who have gone to Oasis that

you can talk to if you would like.

Question - What was your reason for waiting so long to go?

Al, check this site out its the Hansi Treatment done right there in

California. I think they can do injections into the stomach so you wouldn't

have to do the vein thing. It is Dr. Shaw his number is on the website.

Also, Hyperthermia can be given to organs to shrink the tumors. That better

than chemo or raditation.

Mexico.

I've visited it many times and know a lot about it.

Good, ethical, expensive (about $7000/wk). Good though somewhat

limited range of treatments--laetrile/ " metabolic " therapy (their main

treatment), dental detox, Autologous Vaccine (not used very often),

Polyatomic Apheresis/Polyatomic Oxygen Therapy, high-tech ozone, Hyper

Oxygen Plus Therapy, extra-corporeal systemic oxygenation (ESO),

Spiritual/Emotional Support (strong Christian orientation but warmly

welcomes everyone); healthy, organic food. Most comprehensive hospital

facilities of any Tijuana clinic-- " set up to meet almost anything that

could happen...whereas some of the other facilities would require you

to go to the emergency room at another hospital....Many continue home

therapy using a catheter "

They also have a separate Issels therapy program (same price), which

is also very effective (for people who haven't had chemo).

(alternativemedicine.com) and Evaluating Alternative Cancer Therapies

(Hess) (see chapters on Contreras).

They are.

Any specific questions? Questions about their effectiveness w/a

particular type of cancer?

I considered visiting the Oasis of Hope but had difficulty communicating with

them. I sent lots of my records to them but was unable to get anyone that I

could fully understand or that responded well.

I also learned there are other Mexican Clinics and one, in particular, The San

Diego Clinic named for its closeness to San Diego. It has a good reputation and

is much less costly than most and especially Oasis which I have heard is very

costly.

My efforts go back to 2004 and a practitioner that frequents this list had

suggested I didn't need a clinic visit at that time. So far he has been

correct. I never did visit a clinic but did visit in 2004 and again in

2005 on a cross-country driving trip. I would like to visit the San Diego

Clinic, but as a spectator not a patient and see first hand. I have spoken with

someone that did spend time there and had gave the staff and the Chief Physician

very high marks.

Another contributor to this list, Leonard, gave a report on Mexican clinics and

one he gave a good report on was San Diego as well as 's efforts with

that clinic.

Really so how much would it cost to get treatment in Osias Hope

Hospital in Tijuana, Mexico in US dollars compared to one in San Diego?

Do you know any ohter places that does the Live Cell Therapy/Injection in the US

or Mexico?

I do not know what it would cost and you can look back where I said, " I have

heard " leaving the verification up to people that would be wise enough to 'check

around' before jumping as I almost did.

It would make sense to explore more and then ask these clinics whether or not

they do 'Live Cell Therapy'. Is this something you have found to be useful for

whatever situation you are involved with?

Share with us why you think this might be useful.

A good source of information on Mexican Clinics was given to us by Leonard but,

unfortunately, I my computer crashed and I lost a lot of the reports I had and

those I purchased from Ralph Moss (cancer Decisions)with one on Mexican Clinics

and others on Herceptin and Anti-Oxidants and their involvement with

Chemotherapy. (sigh) I didn't have them backed up! It's late now and I'll be

doing a grandparent thing for the next two days and need rest. ha!
