Beating Cancer through Nutrition and Diet
Comments
-
Hi, I have small cell lung cancer and it is dormant four years this last february. I would encourage a good diet, but I do not believe in controling cancer with a diet. My older sister is in hospice right now, and only has days to live over her trying to kill cancer thru nutrition. I went thru chemo (four chemo's) and six and a half weeks of radiation, five times a day. I would be there to help your father and sister , and help them get thru treatment. I would also talk to their oncologists and dietician and make sure they know how you feel, but I would ultimately let their doctors make this type of a decision. I agree on a healthy diet but when I was in treatment, I was soooo sick ,that my wife fed me whatever I thought I could get down and stay down. How would you expect to change what has happened in a whole lifetime with a change of food now? I would again suggest to be there and support them , and get them thru the treatment, and then and only then would I consider not eating what they might want while going through this damn treatment. I hope I don't sound like some kind of nut , but I have been there , and it is no picnic. Huggs and God bless Mike0

I think supplements, diet and exercise can have a positive effect on ones fight with cancer. You can read my story and see some of the things I am doing to beat my cancer. You can type ernrol in the search box at top of screen or type "LIFE IS GREAT" in the phrase word box of the personnel web search. If you have any questions just e-mail; me.

I read your post and see that you have small cell lung cancer and it has been dormant for 4 years! My sister age 44 was just diagnosed with small cell and it gives me hope for her that there are people surviving this.

Hi There I would also try the Cancer Treatments of America in Tulsa OK. That is where I bought the book BEATING CANCER WITH NUTRITION, At the center they incorporate good eating habits along with vitimans and antioxidents to bust the immune system, but at the same time do Chemo and Radiation when possible Never give up hope. It's up to God how long we live. When a Dr. puts a time line on it they are only going by statisticsernrol said:I would get a second opinion on your dad. There is someone out there that will treat him. It may take a little research. To start with you might try M.D. Anderson or Sloan Ketteering.

Hi Ernrol, thanks for your reply... your a amazing inspiration... Its a bit difficult in some ways being here in Canada however we can get access to most any Health food item there is out there. Not sure if we can get Tarceva here though... keep up the good work, you're showing us all that it can be done!ernrol said:I would get a second opinion on your dad.
