Here is my story. I was diagnosed with inoperable pancreatic cancer at the age of 67 and was devastated when the doctor at first told me that the tumor was operable, only to find out later that it was not. That is when I found the book by Ty Bollinger "Cancer: Step Outside The Box." In his book, he had a reference to cancer clinics in the United States and Mexico that he recommended. The traditional medical community offered large doses of chemotherapy with only a 20% chance of reducing the tumor size, which was a grim prognosis.
 
I believe that I was divinely led to Shea Medical and Dr. Charlie Schwengel. My daughter spoke to the Patient Care Coordinator, Dana VanHoose and a meeting was set up for us to see the clinic, meet the doctor and the staff. That meeting changed my life, turning my desperation to hope.

I had an eight-week program using the protocol that was recommended for his type of cancer. Unlike a hospital setting or a doctor's office setting, this clinic was warm and inviting and the staff was wonderful in making us feel like we were their only patients. The quality of the care, the expertise and knowledge that they have is truly amazing. My tumor was reduced by more than half in a few short weeks, and is continuing to decrease at a phenomenal rate with the treatment that Shea Medical provides. Thank you for listening.
