Just found out this weekend that two of my first cousins got that horrible diagnosis. One with breast cancer and her brother skin cancer. That makes six, including my mother and grandmother, on that side of the family.
I hate that dang word.

I heard somewhere about a year ago that Israel was to have a cure for cancer within a year . They were very close . Havent heard anything since then

It will never happen, to much money in trying to treat it.

Yeah, I feel ya. Lost a bunch so far to that thieving pos.

I know the feeling. I learned this spring that I had colon cancer and kidney cancer. Lost 8" of my colon. Good news is it was stage 1. Six weeks later, a kidney was removed. Again, stage 1. No chemo and no radiation.

Ruined my summer, but hey, I'm fairing well.

Glad to hear thing took a turn for the better!

Warrior I'll be praying for your family. I hate cancer

Charles I'm glad you're doing better

I agree. ive lost a sister, grandfather, 2 aunts and uncle from this disease and my son is currently battling with it. my sympathy goes out to every family that has had this disease come into there life.

Sorry to hear that. We will keep your family in our prayers

Not to hijack yout thread but I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer just a year ago, right lung , right femur ' two spots in the brain ' rib on right side , several spots on the liver.
All I can say about this is don't. Ever give up , keep fighting and what I feel is most important keep a posative attitude.

We will be thinking and praying for you too gulch. I hope the best for you and your family

Please explain how researchers and health care professionals and their family members and friends avoid getting cancer or are you saying they care more about making money and don’t mind watching them suffer?

There are some natural cancer remedies available. Essiac tea is one that comes to my mind.

Cancer survivor here. Eight years cancer free. There is hope best wishes to you.

X2 I'm a cancer survivor going on 2 years, also mine was throat cancer found early the treatment was tough to get through as mentioned a positive attitude is paramount and keep your mind active in a positive way avoiding negativity and negative people.

What also will help is joining a cancer survivor group it's been a good thing for me it doesn't hurt if your a stubborn mule headed bugger either to get through it all and keeping your head up and smiling.

i did essiac tea yrs ago,problem is you dont know if what you buy is the original deal. Theres many things That have helped me with it in the last 10 yrs. Asia helped immensly,my white count has risen 60,000 2.5. yrs back in usa...In asia I took guyabano tea and ate the fruit(soursop) known to kill cancer cells but the tea made me super cranky. I dont know if its because it was killing c cells or what so i stopped it. The dragonfruit helps alot eliminating free radicals because its so high in anti oxidents. The grapeseed extract is very high anti oxidents also and I feel real good on it. Ran my sons legs off yesterday in a hike ,cabelas,dicks,field and stream store. I did double up on the grapeseed extract one day and it didnt go well with me. It had the same results as guyabano tea . It made me
very cranky and tired. Im back to the regular dose now and feel good again but do feel soreness in my lymphnodes at the moment. Surviving leukemia 10 yrs now without chemo or transfusions.

I am praying for all of you and everyone that has this dreaded Disease … I lost 2 close friends and my younger brother this summer due to Cancer.

Garry-

Thanks for sharing your story, west River Rogue. The Essiac that I take is made by Daniel Gagnon in Santa Fe, New Mexico. It seems to help my drainage issues.

Run,pm to you

I agree. Too much money in research that would dry up. It's sad to imagine, but it's job security too.
