I read somewhere on this internet where in a poll given only 14 percent of the oncologist would take chemo or give it to thier love ones, can't find it and need it! Help, all of you who don't have chemo brain or those who have recovered their brains! God Bless, prayers for those suffering from Katrina. Linda

    Hi Linda,

    I haven't seen that post - but would like to, so if You find it please post it again . As for Katrina - I am from Mississippi, all of my family lives there.God answered my prayers, all of my family are still alive ,now it's a matter of survival-one of my Brothers and a Sister lives in Gulfport,another Sister lives in Long Beach,it's west of Gulfport.I was in panick mode from Sunday to Thursday when I finally got word that they had survived. Besides no electricity,food and water in short supply as of yesterday-they finally recieved military rations late yesterday afternoon.You can't imagine the relief I felt upon finding them alive,I continue to pray for all of those suffering, for there are multitudes.I am still crying for them-I feel such a loss-and I don't live there anymore,can't really explain it,just feel it.
    Living on a Wing and a Prayer,
    Sue

    Hi Linda, There's a book entitled, Questioning Chemotherapy by Ralph W. Moss. In reviewing it on Amazon.com, I came across this quote:
    "In 2002, the Journal of the American Medical Association reported that in the previous year, the average oncologist had made $253,000 of which 75% was profit on chemotherapy drugs administered in his/her office. Yet, surveys of oncologists by the Los Angeles Times and the McGill Cancer Center in Montreal show that from 75% to 91% of ongologists would refuse chemotherapy as a treatment for themselves or their families. Why? Too toxic and not effective. Yet, 75% of cancer patients are urged to take chemo by their oncologists." Also found this article that discusses the same topic:

    Conventional Cancer Treatments
    Hope this helps!

    Look for any and all posts by Gregory D. Pawelski and Dr. # sign. They both have some interesting viewpoints. I am a 5 year stage 4 survivor with my own opinions. Wrote a book called
    Cancer And Beyond
    The Things You Want To Know About Cancer...
    But Nobody Will Tell You
    It's on amazon.com very Spiritually based, but also very medically based.
