Very interesting, Maelstrom, I lost my mother to this disease, 3 weeks after diagnosis.

One of the most deadly killers among the cancers. And quick, too. Took Michael Landon, Jack Benny, Fred Gwynn, Bill Bixby, Donna Reed, and Patrick Swayze. among others. Just before he died, Landon appeared on Johnny Carson and joked that by the time you learned how to say its medical name (ductal adenocarcinoma), you were already dead.

An insidious disease that took my dad in 1990. A terrible way to go.

Under Obamacare the only medication offered to end stage pancreatic cancer patients will be euthanasia drugs.

Prolonging the lives of cancer patients does not serve the needs of the state. If the cost of a diseased worker unit exceeds the revenue it generates, the unit must be recycled.

I lost a cousin to this horrible scourge.

Here’s praying that this research will end up benefiting a lot of victims.

The following is excerpted from Cancer Tutor: http://www.cancertutor.com/Other/Pancreatic_Cancer.html

Go to the web site to read more. Alpha lipoic acid (ALA) is a powerful anticancer antioxidant. It should generally be used, along with selenium and silymarin in most cancer treatments. Dr William Kelley cured his own pancreatic cancer with digestive/proteolytic enzymes and diet, including coffee enemas. The ALA, selenium, silymarin & coffee enemas keep the liver detoxed, very important in cancer treatments. The digestive/proteolytic enzymes help reduce tumor size. I am aware of the therapy described in the article, and have heard good things about it.

Pancreatic Cancer and Gallbladder Cancer (from Cancer Tutor)

Pancreatic cancer and gallbladder cancer are two of the most dangerous types of cancer. One problem is that they can spread very quickly and get out of control very quickly.

Another problem with pancreatic cancer is that it is usually diagnosed in the late stages. Thus, it is critical to get started on a treatment as soon as possible, and to attack this type of cancer with a vengeance!!

No matter what “stage” your medical doctor rates you as; in terms of alternative medicine you are a “Stage IV’ cancer patient with either of these types of cancer. This means that you need at least ONE OF THE MOST POTENT alternative cancer treatments!!

Read more at the website noted above. Cancer Tutor is one of the more definitive sources for alternative cancer treatments.

Dr Nicholas Gonzalez, MD is treating late stage cancer patients, including those with pancreatic cancer using his own modified version of Dr Kelley’s (DDS) protocol with much success. His website is http://www.dr-gonzalez.com/index.htm

I lost a friend to this, too.

Anyone who knows anyone in this situation has to RUN to get Suzanne Somers’ latest book. It is interviews with doctors who are curing pancreas and other cancers. It’s not really about Suzanne, so if you don’t care for her as an actress, do not worry. It’s about cancer and how traditional oncology is NOT the only thing. I just finished it, and I marked many pages for future research.

These doctors interviewed are AMAZING. The patients are living long, long healthy, happy lives, with either cures or controlled cancer. Diet is ESSENTIAL to fighting and preventing cancer.

EVERYONE should read this book — there is so much to learn that might save someone you love.

A few notes. Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is now a part of standard therapy in Germany for both idiopathic neuropathy (nerve damage in the extremities with indeterminate cause) and to correct diminished vascular (capillary) function in the extremities, of diabetics, who commonly suffer from both problems.

That is, when you are diagnosed as having diabetes in Germany, along with your other drugs, you are prescribed ALA (also Vitamin B-1, which is lost in the excess urination of diabetics, and lack of which causes a host of other problems.)

And ALA is often combined with an amino acid, called Acetyl L-Carnitine (ALC), which is also sold over the counter. ALC has been found to also help with these two diabetic conditions.

On a side note, Silymarin, which is an active ingredient in milk thistle herb, has long been known as “the perfect drug” for the human liver.

It has three functions: first, directly protecting liver cells from damage by toxins; second, it limits uptake of toxins by the liver, so that it does not become stressed; and third, it causes regrowth of any damage to the liver 1/3rd faster than normal.

Silymarin is perhaps the only known substance that might protect the liver from destruction after a person consumes “death cap” mushrooms. Its toxin is so intense that people have had liver transplants after their liver was destroyed, and there is still enough toxin in their blood to destroy their new liver.

So, with medical permission, if you expect to take medicines or other chemicals that might harm your liver, it would be a very good idea to take Silymarin prior to exposure, unless it could prevent proper function of a critical medicine.
