I read a book about Burzynski, by a writer by the name of Thomas Elias (also went to hear him speak once). This man started his research thinking Dr. Burzynski was a quack, but changed his mind during the writing of his book.

I don't think he's a quack. I think he's a hero.

FWIW, he has actually cured brain cancers... tumors which conventional therapy hardly touches and doesn't cure.

Were I to be diagnosed with cancer, I'd rather go to an alternative doctor. At least I'd have a fighting chance.

No honest doctor would claim to cure everybody who walks through the doors to his office. But the batting average, to me, for orthodox cancer medicine isn't very good.

There is a lot of cancer in my family members. I remember that one grandmother died when I was very young. My mother and I lived, for a while, with an aunt and uncle. The uncle came down with laryngeal cancer, and I witnessed what he went through (surgery and radiation). The cancer kept recurring, and finally killed him.

THAT convinced me that there had to be something better, something less horrifying, something that wasn't worse than the disease itself. So, when I got out on my own, I looked into such alternative treatments. And there *are* things that work--but most orthodox doctors never think outside their little boxes.
