Re: Any good Cancer Groups in northeast ohio

[Guest guest]

Most libraries have info like that . I live in Northeast Ohio and most

hospitals have support groups also call United Way and ask your doctor

also. You didn't mention what kind of cancer but if you type that in

Google then support group and location there should be some hits.

Good luck!

Understand that those 'Survivor Groups' will be pretty much conventionally

oriented and if that is what you want, that may be exactly what you need.

I have a friend, a nurse at my Urologist's office, that heads up a group in

South Florida. She does give them some of the information, or at least she

says she does, that I send her about Alternative measures.

There are many books out there and the first one I ever read about Cancer was,

How to Fight Cancer and Win by L. Fischer and another Beating Cancer

with Nutrition by Quillin. There are many books out there and I

remember advising my Daughter-in-law to also get Iodine, why ;you need

it by Brownstein, MD--0 and his reasoning, to get her to begin 'thinking'

differently.

A book everyone should read, one that is older is, Questioning Chemotherapy by

Ralph W. Moss, Ph.D.

I would also look for the article, which you should be able to find on line,

that a couple of Australian Oncologists wrote clearly stating, and they provide

research figures that, they, the medical professionals, need to do something

else because they claim, Chemotherapy isn't working. Of course there are

people surviving cancer both those that go conventionally and those that go

alternatively. There are also that survive doing nothing at all and then

there are 'Spontaneous Remissions' that offer no reason--it just happens.

Good luck in your quest for good health and remember, " Information is your best

friend " .

In addition to the excellent recommendations by Joe, a few more books

and some videos that are worth reading/watching:

" AntiCancer a New Way of Life " by Servan-Schreiber

" Foods That Fight Cancer " , by Beliveau and Denis Gingras

A audio + slides lecture by Dr. Servan-Schreiber on the

relationship between nutrition, lifestyle and cancer:

http://tinyurl.com/mgyxu6

Since nutrition is a very key part of any cancer fighting strategy, the

following book (while not entirely about cancer and nutrition) is very

worthwhile as well:

" The China Study " by T. Colin

A really good video presentation given by T. Colin can be

found here:

http://vsh.voip-info.org/.html

The Vegetarian Society of Hawaii has many excellent videos on

nutrition and health. You can find a directory of them here:

http://www.vsh.org/videos.htm

The following 2 videos from vsh.org that I think you will find

particularly useful:

http://vsh.voip-info.org/Fuhrman.html

http://vsh.voip-info.org/Heidrich.html

Here is some more info' about Ruth Heidrich, a lady who beat breast

cancer that had metastasized to one of her lungs and her bones (using

nutrition and lifestyle changes and no chemo' or radiation):

http://www.drmcdougall.com/stars/star07_ruth-heidrich.html

After you have digested that information, you may wish to look at some

specific anti-cancer protocols. There are a number of worthwhile

protocols to consider, with the Budwig Protocol being one that I believe

(from first hand experience) is worth considering. You can find

information about it in the files area of the discussion group:

FlaxSeedOil2/

Only you can make the decisions about what are the best approaches to

fighting cancer. Good information is essential to that end. Don't rush

(or allow yourself to be rushed) into any treatment regimen without

taking the time to do your research.

Kind regards,

Nick
