“After watching my mom go through chemo, I wouldn’t wish it on anyone but you do what you gotta do.”
We teach alternatives to “conventional” cancer treatment. We talk with people regularly who have cancer and have gone...are going...are getting ready to go through chemo. Sometimes people opt out of chemo. Too often they still choose whatever the doctor says because they are afraid to do anything else.
We teach treatments that have a successful track record. We work with our clients through their treatment if they opt for alternatives. We also work with some who choose chemo but still want anything alternative they can do. Occassionally we find a doctor who listens, or is in tune with alternative approaches.
When the oncologist sends a patient home or to hospice with a prescription for morphine and tells the patient to get affairs in order, conventional medicine is admitting failure. For those patients in this group who choose to go alternative treatments, the success rate is 50%.
Very interesting. I’d go for it for a 50 percent chance, unless I was 80-90 something and had a bunch of other problems, then I’d be ready to go “home.”
