CANCER SUCKS

My dad died from cancer in July of 2008. I believe that he had cancer for many years before it was "found" by a doctor doing a scan before his shoulder surgery. I believe that his treatment of chemotherapy was what sped up his death. I will not EVER get chemo if I should ever, (God forbid), get cancer! He also participated in an experimental drug therapy. Now, the endocrinologist made it sound so promising and that this drug had such great prospects. I believe that they only give "experimental" drugs to people they know are going to die anyway and use them as guinea pigs. They handed out bracelets, like the Livestrong bracelets that were blue and said "Research + HOpe = Cure" but what it should have said was "Poison + Unsuspecting patients = Death". So I am a bit bitter about it, the treatment of his disease I mean. I know God's timing is perfect and I do believe that my dad is in Heaven, but I wish he wouldn't have suffered the effects of chemo and other drugs before he passed.

I have also looked in to natural ways to cure cancer and found some interesting information about the Gerson Institute that uses natural organic foods, detox and high doses of Vitamin C as part of their treatment. It is an interesting concept to me. I have watched the movie "Healing Cancer" and "The Beautiful Truth", both are on Netflix and have some great information. Whether you believe it or not is up to you, but I have found it fascinating information.
