Medical Study: Untreated Cancer Patients Live Longer

[Guest guest]

Kathy,

 

Going to try and answer as best I can, but also as straight-forward as I can as

well. This is not personal, and is not meant as anything against anyone

personally. I will be cutting the non-essential out of your letter and

commenting on what is left. Makes it easier for all. I am underlined, at least

on my computer as I write this.

 

 

 

 

 

I believe the author of the note was looking narrowly at the medical community

only, not alternatives. I got that he was saying no treatment is better than

what the medical community offers for cancer.

 

This is what I attempted to point out to the doc that wrote in and flamed me.

He (original post) did not mention alternative treatment at all in the website

he had. (original posting) But again, to say that no treatment is better than

what the med community offers is just silliness, founded upon ignorance. This

is not to say that there are not alternate ways of treating cancer. There are!

But to say, as he did, that no treatment is better is just absurd to the nth

degree. Not even worth the time time it takes to defend this statement.

 

 

I have a question for you Roger...are you depressed?

 

:):) Let me answer by asking a question. This is not considered good

form, but forgive me. I have cancer and diabetes, my wife has had two bouts of

bladder cancer, half her thyroid taken out, and our 27 year old daughter was

stricken at age 19 with a disease so rare that only 200 people in the world have

been diagnosed with it. It has left her disabled, unable to care for her daily

needs, unable to work, most days spent either in bed or sitting reading in a

special chair at the kitchen table. She has a constant pain level of about 7 or

8, spiking to 9 at times, out of 10. This is 24/7. No research is being done

on the disease, because there is no money in it, not enough people have it. We

have been to the " best " hospitals and med centers.

Would you be " somewhat " depressed?

 

Interestingly, I have been told that you cannot get cancer without

depression, a death wish.

 

Again, so utterly foolish as to not be worthy of a reply. What about babies

that have cancer? What about happy, well-rounded youths that rae stricken?

Your answer would be, I suppose, that we don't know if they were depressed. My

reply wuld be I have helped bury friends that died of cancer and I know they

were not depressed. The whole supposition is just silly. Don't believe

evrything someone tells you. Gullibility is rampant in this country, please

don't add to it.

 

 

Both are of the philosophy that given the opportunity the body can heal

itself.

 

Truly, the body is capable of things that are just amazing. But it can

only do so much by itself. If you were shot in the chest with a ..357 Magnum,

would you really expect the body to handle this on it's own? I think not, and

some diseases are like being shot. The body does all it can do, but sometimes

it is not enough.

 

 

And the more I see as I research things, the more I believe that our emotions

have EVERYTHING to do with our diseases and illnesses.

 

I agree emotions play a vital role in our well-being, but they do not control

everything. Happy people would never die, of a disease or illness, if that

were the case, and we know that everyone will die.
