I realize I am probably wasting my breath here, but have you investigated other options that are available? It always boggles my mind to see how people accept these kinds of horrific "treatments" without even batting an eye or questioning anything.

The important thing is is that he made it through it, and the treatment that he got is obviously working so far.

Yeah I did look at a whole lot of options, one was freezing, another was removal, Holistic, the Seeds, Lupron shots, Direct Radiation and some other oddities.

At the stage I was at, the path I took seemed the best choice for what where I was. Won't know for about another year, but it seems to be working.

I am impressed with all the different suggestions I have gotten by people, although some don't sound good and others great, I have no idea of which is the best.. All I could do was pick one path and go with it after I took all the pros and cons of what the effects were from what I could read... Not a fun choice to make, you always wonder if the other "Choice" was a better one.

In my case, I had to do the three levels because the cancer was pretty far along. In early stages, any one of the three would have been enough.

Life isn't always the right path, sometimes you have to get lost now and then to find your way back...

Tomorrow, I have to go to Fairbanks and get another Lupron shot, they are good for four month, then two more after that and I should be done. Then I can move on to the next exotic oddity!

yes....read it but it is not specific....only certain cancers and it is a few they are speaking of which are tumor bases.....i did check out my options especially Germany's treatment....both my cancers are caused from additives in our foods - an yes this is a documented fact....to detox naturally to the point of clearing caner cells was not and is not possible for either cancers I have...everyone carries the cancer cells...it is just a matter of when something will trigger them into active mode. If you do some more research you will find the chemo drugs are a derivative of rat poison found to kill cancer cells quite by accident...it does kill the cell....natural treatments...if you have the time will slooowwwwly reduce the active cells if you don't feed them just like the flu/cold etc....in most cancers time is of the essences...
