Hi - I remember seeing a while ago an article on treating people with cancer according to their genetic makeup and thus eliminating the need for chemo. Can anyone point me in the right direction of where to find that article? I have an opportunity to meet a doctor whose research is based on this premise but I'd like to become a little more familiar so that I know what questions to ask. Tks. Monica

    Monica -

    Are you thinking of cancer vaccines? or are you referring to gene therapy whereby they actually doctor the genes of people with genetic forms of cancer?

    In Mexico this is called the transfer factor. they take a sample of your tumor and create an antibody from it. I ve been doing this therapy for the past 5 months.

    I believe it is the one where they actually doctor the genes. Thanks for the info. Monica

    Sponge, yes that is the vaccine treatment. monica, I have scans again in May 21st. so far, the liver tumor is gone and my other two tumors outside my colon are shrinking. I have no new growth so I have to say yea something is working. I am doing Rife sound therapy, transfer factor, chemo, positive reflections, new diet, exercise and i just plain refuse to let this **** get the best of me so, is the Transfer factor working? something is. I think it is a good cocktail. that is other than rum. hehe
