Answer 1

Don't let him have surgery.

Please read the page below, and you will be amazed bwhen you know the truth.


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.

Answer 3

My dad died this summer from lung cancer. When he was first diagnosed surgery was considered, but the surgeon said he wasn't a candidate. He then decided not to have any treatment, no radiation, no chemotherapy. He lived for 18 months and he smoked and drank the whole time. At least he was happier than if he had gotten sick and weak from the treatments. Yes, you can live with one lung. But here's the thing, when you have lung cancer all you can buy is a little more time, months at best, and sometimes the cure will kill you. I think the way my dad chose is the best way.

Answer 4

Better take him for Advance Diagnostic scanner testing center ( You know the EX President -Bill Clinton Pass through that therapy),At Columbia Presbyterians Institute in New York City if possible or look around your town if that type of facility if available.He can live if his lung removed by professional and can prolong his life with a Dialysis(An artificial pump just work like Lung).And I f a Patient is on Dialysis The energy supply company maintain the line perfect so no outrage of power.Check with your City and State Government if funding is available for dialysis machine.

Answer 5

first get a second medical opinion.
there are many complex factors involved.
and chemo doesn't always cure especially if it was too far gone already.
you can live with one lung but not nearly as well.
and you need to know if the cancer spread and what kind it is and research . try this site for informed information..
ther are support groups at major cancer centers have the whole family go and ask a lot of questions
go well and good luck !

Answer 6

Go to the American Cancer Society, American Lung Association, and National Institute of Health websites for more information.

Answer 7

im so sorry to hear that.

Living with one lung would be extremely difficult. He may be living on machines for the rest of his life.

This is an issue that you need to discuss with a doctor with all of your family to decide whats best for your father in law considering his conditions.

Being strong and hopeful and smiling a lot will makes things roll a little more smoothly and make your father in law happier no matter what the outcome.

Hope all comes to a nice conclusion.

Answer 8

This is something that your father in-law's doctor should explain further to you if you don't understand. If you don't understand, keep asking questions until you do. Don't worry if you don't want to sound dumb because not all of us are doctors and that's what they're there for, to answer questions about our health by using their expertise.

From what I've heard, people can survive with 1 lung.

Answer 9

The whole lung or just a lobe of the lung? If your family doesn't understand then you all need to talk to his doctor. Go with him to one of his appointments. I don't know his medical history or where in the lung it is.

Answer 10

If was within the last few weeks of his life would they not have sent him to hospice? Als remember that if has been diagnosed with cancer and has less than 6 months to live he is entitled to free nursing home care. They don't often tell you that. What sort of hospital tried to feed a 73 year old man curry, for christs sake.
