    I would caution you to be careful before you spend a lot of money on "special" "cancer-curing" supplements. Many of them are nothing more than common items (herbs, vitamins, minerals, etc.) wrapped up in pretty packaging and costing significantly more than they do at the grocery store.

    I would suggest you contact Emily or Lisa P ("scoutie") to discuss supplements. Also take a look at Dr. Quindlan's books on curing cancer through diet.

    My hat's off to you for for looking out for your dad's health so vigilantly!

    You guys are so great!!! I am flying to Europe to my dad tomorrow so that I can be there at the beginning (he was diagnozed a week ago). I am printing out many of your recommendations so that I can translate them to him and let him know how many survivors are out there!

    Privet Elena,

    Did you see the email that I sent to you through the CSN email system? I offered a couple of suggestions. Have a good trip to Moldova.
