One of the greatest fears we have is of dying from cancer.
We've all had friends and relatives die that way and so, if given a choice, I suspect we'd all rather drop dead of a heart attack.
We've all seen friends, family and celebrities quickly turn into emaciated shadows of themselves while enduring horrendous pain and suffering through surgery, chemotherapy and radiation.
The great tragedy is that those are more often the effects of the TREATMENTS rather than the cancer itself.
We also know that, although there are survivors of cancer treatment such as Lance Armstrong and my mother who had breast cancer 28 years and is still going strong, many more people die despite the surgery, chemo and radiation.
Ms.
Somers herself is a breast cancer survivor.
And in the fall of 2008 she was rushed to the emergency room with a strange rash and breathing difficulties.
Six doctors looked at her CAT scan and diagnosed her with massive whole-body cancer.
Particularly scary, since Ms.
Somers is now a health writer with an extremely healthy lifestyle.
What's even more scary is that one of her family kept telling the doctors, "I looked up her symptoms on the Internet.
She must have Valley Fever.
"-- and they ignored her.
Until a biopsy proved that Ms.
Somers did not have cancer.
Evidently, while walking out in the desert or gardening, she caught...
Valley Fever.
Shaken by this experience, Ms.
Somers set out to find and interview doctors who are curing people who actually do have cancer: Dr.
Stanislaw Burzynski, Dr.
Nicholas Gonzalez, Dr.
Julie Taguchi and Dr.
James Forsythe.
Some of them use only alternative therapies, others use reduced chemotherapy along with alternative therapies.
Bill Faloon from the Life Extention Institute details ways that cancer patients can reduce the risk of having surgery.
In the next section she interviews doctors and other experts on how to prevent cancer.
The only criticism I would have of this book is that it fails to provide the reader with a complete, step by step regimen to follow.
Each of the doctors treating patients has a different method and emphasis, plus they all agreed that every patient and every cancer is different and needs an individualized protocol.
That makes sense.
But when it comes to prevent, it'd have been nice to have all the advice pulled together into one handy chart.
As it is, you have to do that yourself.
And different experts advise different nutritional supplements, so it's not easy.
Otherwise, this book is a gift to the world both for its specific information but even more for the hope it brings.
These doctors are risking the rather of the FDA and AMA, and deserve all the health and support we can give them.
And Ms.
Somers deserves praise for bringing them and their techniques to the attention of the world.
