Survivor Stories


We all love a good story!
The survivor and remission stories I hear from my friends
give me courage to keep fighting, to keep on living a healthy
lifestyle. I just heard another "good" story, so let's share.
(I'll change the names.)
I caught up with Paul last week. The last round of chemo didn't make any difference to his liver tumors so he turned to the natural route under the supervision of a naturopath. His regimen includes Essiac tea, a fresh batch of juice made from 9 vegetables each day, antioxidants, green tea, lots of fruit, no red meat, vitamins, etc. He is feeling great, has lots of energy, and the tumors are not doing anything. Hopefully they will actually decrease in size! That's what happened to Mary. She drank Essiac tea, took powdered vegetable supplements, vitamins and antioxidants and Shark's cartilage capsules as well as a diet of only chicken and lots of vegetables and fruit. Along with the chemo she was on, her three lung tumors shrivelled up and disappeared. She was cancer free for another three years! I call Sue my miracle friend. She had colon cancer which returned a second time. More chemo. But her MS and heart attack made it too difficult to tolerate the chemo. She told her doctor to let her go home and deal with it on her own. She took over 20 Shark's cartilage capsules a day, drank the tea, and followed the healthy diet routine. Everytime she went for a catscan her tumor had decreased in size until it disappeared without a trace! Today, 12 yrs. later, she's happy, healthy and a joy to be with! I talked to Marge two weeks ago. Stage 4 non-Hodgekin's lymphoma. She got through the chemotherapy treatments and is now doing very well taking Mannetech products. (www.mannatech.com) Several other friends of mine are on this product and also doing well in terms of energy and no spread of tumors. And then there's Leanne. Three years ago she was so ill with cancer in several parts of her body, that the doctor gave her a couple of weeks to live. She proved the medics wrong! Yesterday I dropped in to see her and smiling she told me about the result of her check-up this week. "They can't find any cancer!" She exclaimed grinning from ear to ear. "I don't have to come back for six months!" And what is her "treatment"? She claims it's TLC and prayer. She moved in with her sister who provides both in very generous portions. Bless her. I delight in these friends who keep on encouraging me! May they encourage you also this month. (I'm not in a medical profession. I'm merely passing on what others have told me and what I am using. The Essiac tea is an old native Indian recipe which they used to treat cancer among other things. (Click Essiac Tea to read the whole story.) The Shark's cartilege supposedly blocks the tiny arteries the tumor makes to sustain itself. Without a blood supply, the tumor starves and dies. A diet rich in fruit and vegetables give us the nutrients needed to prevent and fight cancer.) A.F. NEXT: "Oh, The Wonder of it All" BACK TO: "Archives"
