May God be with him and his caregivers.
I pray that Jesus will heal your brother. I pray for your entire family. God bless you.
My sister had an advanced lung cancer at 68 years old.
She is now in better shape than ever!
The important thing to know is that cancer CAN be beat.
I've battled the big "C" three time now and been told I came close to not typing this response. Two operations, three regimes of Chemo and I'm still laughing. Tell your brother that the biggest weapon he has in his battle is his attitude and outlook. A positive and stubborn desire to beat this speed bump in life’s journey will do more good than any knife, Chemo of Radiation.
Prayers up.
Prayers!
Are you talking about Dr. Stanislaw Bryzinski? He is controversial, but there are people who swear by him.
M.D. Anderson Cancer Hospital is the best in the world, and is also in Houston.
Prayers for his health and recovery.

My family has been touched by cancer, too ... we will be praying for your brother.
Your brother is so fortunate to have you and your obviously close knit and caring family to lean on at this time.
The other posters are correct; great strides have been made in cancer research and treatment, and a good attitude is SO important for recovery.
My prayers to you all! Good luck!
Prayers have been sent for your brother and your family. May God bless you all.
First of all, I'm praying for your brother and yourself as well as the rest of your family. I know what a huge and overwhelming shock this is as I at the age of 39 with an 11 yr old (at the time) son, was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer with less then a %50 survival.
I'm a single divorced mom and the whole thing was beyond my comprehension. I didn't know where to start. Asking God to take over and take care of me was the first step for me.
While my mom and exhusband were planning on life without me, I was planning on living. Please find a good dr. Don't just take the first doctor's word for everything. My first oncologist actually dropped me due to my chances of survival(which is unheard of here in Los Angeles) but that was a blessing because it got me moving instead of just accepting. Its been over two years now, I'm done with treatment,(3 surgeries, 4 months of two kinds of chemo and 5 mos of radiation) and my doctors consider me cured. There isn't a trace of cancer cells in my body and believe me they'll keep looking!
One of the other posters mentioned that testicular cancer is one of the most cureable, and that is very true. It sounds sucky to say, but if you have to go thru cancer, that is one of the ones to have to deal with. So many new treatments for it (during radiation treatments, we all are in the same waiting room to get zapped and all share experiences)
I'll be praying for your brother in a huge way especially now.....These first few weeks are the scariest and most overwhelming for him, and anything you can say or do to lift him up and encourage him now will make a big difference in the coming days to him.
