Guest guest Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 hi amy, welcome to the group. i worked in health food stores for several years. one of my regular customers was a man who defied conventional medicine and cured himself of malignant melanoma using diet, vitamins and supplements. his story was so amazing and inspirational. he had gone to the gerson institute (http://www.gerson.org). here is a quick overview of their therapy (http://www.gerson.org/g_therapy/default.asp). it's interesting that juicing, a vegetarian diet and tons of organic fruits and vegetables is the basis of their therapy. i'm not a doctor and i'm in not advocating the gerson institute (the complete therapy should not be done without supervision), but thier site may give you some information about how to make your body healthier through diet. i believe it can be done. hope you enjoy it here, susie --- Amy <fairsinger wrote: > My name is Amy, I'm 32 years old and I live in > Kansas. > However, I am > battling cancer and after 7 1/2 years the cancer has > gone into > a " chronic " stage where we can't beat it with > traditional > medicine...the tumors just keep coming back...so now > I am working on > beating it through faith and natural healing.
