Answer 1

Contact the American Cancer society they have well trained people called navigators and they can be very very very helpful...they will also send you out a book customized for you and the kind of cancer you are dealing with.
I am a five year survivor of stage 4 ovarian cancer and we are winning the fight...5 yrs ago I was given just a few good years. and to be alive now was not very likely.
I will tell you some of the things that helped me.

1. You will Live thru this...nomatter what you are still alive now and you can live with cancer.
2. more and more is being discovered, with the internet and clinical trials patents are better informed and are fighting back better.
3. all the stats that you see in researching are at least 7 years out of date.
the stats in 2001 were from people dxex before 1995 so the stat that said only 30% live 5 years was 30% of those dxed in the mid 90s.
there are many choices and better drugs to prevent the nausia.
there are more select therapys too.
Your hospital should have referals to the suport groups in your area. Good Luck. Live strong and long.
I know its scarry and crying is good too ... YOU ARE NOT ALONE if you do end up juining the club nobody wants to join you will be in the company of over nine million survivors.
I had people coming up to me in grocery stores when I was bald hugging me and telling me to hang in ther. So you hang in ther and you WILL GET THRU THIS just get the best team of caregivers(doctors, nurses,ect) you can muster

Answer 2

Once you know what type of cancer you then you can pick out a support group. There support out there for different types of cancer. I stage 3 cancer in the colon, so depending on where the cancer is then you'll the right support group. When you are diagnosed with cancer the Onologist will give a package of information about the cancer, treatment and a listing of support groups to contact. Thy will help you all the way. So don't worry - take one day at a time.

Answer 3

Yes, I can check back here to see if you have more questions. My mom had breast cancer, and she's now undergoing chemotherapy for the second recurrence. As far as support groups go, we've always been blessed with lots of friends and family praying for us, and they've been wonderful support. Prayer helps more than you realize until you see it answered. If you are diagnosed with cancer, DONT GIVE UP HOPE. The cancer itself is frightening enough, and side effects from chemotherapy can seem almost as bad as the disease sometimes. But just keep in mind that people are working to help you, and that people are praying for you, and with all of the new medicines and treatment options available cancer CAN be beaten. If you give up hope, you will a) be miserable and b) hurt your body's ability to fight the cancer (yes, I've heard of research that shows that a positive attitude does help). Plus, your boys need to see you as a strong and hopeful figure so they have an easier time making it through this situation.

And by the way... I've heard that at least with breast cancer, family history isn't even all that much of a risk factor. Hopefully that makes you feel better as you wait for the news! Best wishes!

I'll be praying! God bless you!

Answer 4

I think you will find the information on the page below extremely useful,
It is a very well researched article that explains many things about cancer which are usually suppressed.


This is an article worth reading for anyone who needs to be disabused of the belief that the orthodox cancer treatments with toxic chemo-"therapy" actually work. Since when is the destruction of one's immune system with toxic chemo and radiation therapeutic? And how does cutting out a part of the body solve a 'whole-body' problem? Something to ponder while reading the article.

The 5-year survival figures, (for orthodox treatment), not to be confused with the successful treatment of the disease, for the major cancers are:

stomach - 5 percent

trachea, bronchus and lung -5 percent

breast -50 percent

oesophagus -5 percent

large intestine - 22 percent

pancreas - 4 percent

liver - 2 percent

According to the government's own figures, around 2 percent of chemotherapy recipients are still alive after 5 years: the term 'alive' is used, here, in its literal sense: i.e. not yet clinically dead.


'Chemotherapy and radiotherapy will make the ancient method of drilling holes in a patient's head, to permit the escape of demons, look relatively advanced...the use of cobalt...effectively closes the door on cure.'17

The five year survival rates for the different onslaughts are: 11

Surgery - 22 percent

Radiotherapy -12 percent

Surgery/radiotherapy combined - 6 percent

Chemotherapy plus others - 2.5 percent

Chemotherapy alone - 1.6 percent

.none of which has stopped the cancer industry from carrying out the same procedures, day in, day out, for decades: with the same deadly, inevitable results.


'It is utter nonsense to claim that catching cancer symptoms early enough will increase the patient's chances of survival: not one scientist or study has proven that in any way. My studies have proved conclusively that untreated cancer victims live up to four times longer than treated individuals. If one has cancer and opts to do nothing at all, he will live longer and feel better than if he undergoes radiation, chemotherapy or surgery, other than used in immediate life-threatening situation.'

EAT:

Organically-grown, if possible, fruit, vegetables, peas, beans, rice: chemically-grown carrots are out. Non-organic cabbage, broccoli, sprouts, mushrooms etc. should be boiled for a couple of minutes in salted water, drained and rinsed, then cooked. Lettuce and similar foods which cannot be cleansed with this process or peeled should be home-grown or avoided.

Emphasise raw foods; whole grain breads; soya products: tofu, soymilk, miso.

Eat B17 foods regularly - seeds of apricot, peach, plum, cherry, apple; sprouted alfalfa, mung and wheat seeds; millet, lentils, watercress, lima beans, blackeye beans, broccoli, cabbage, buckwheat, linseed etc. (Hard seeds like peach and apricot should be broken open, and the soft inside eaten)

Garlic is the supreme plant from a physician's and a cook's point of view: eat it raw, cooked: grow it: use it as a medicine for everything from cancer and tuberculosis to coughs, colds, infections, high blood pressure, whooping cough, chemical/heavy metal/radiation detoxification etc., etc.

Take a look at the site below which explains many misunderstood things about the cancer industry, and has some natural cures too.
