Fenbendazole. We tried it on mom too late. Tumors were shrinking. Dr said it was a miracle, no other explanation for shrinking bc she hadnt had chemo in months. She caught an infection which ultimately killed her

Sure, but it's nothing compared to his - mine is spreading through my lymph nodes towards my brain, it's in my abdomen and chest. By the end of next week i should either be in chemo or on the chopping block at ochsner.
I am so sorry to hear this. Sending you all the prayers and best wishes in the world. God bless you.

Because the idea that by simply eating “real foods” destroys cancers cells is utterly ridiculous


There is little clinical data to say it does or doesn’t, if the current standard treatments are no longer working what does it hurt.

Well I thought so too until I watched it. If you haven’t I suggest checking it out. Then get back to me.

It shows a demographic of indigenous people and how once they got introduced to processed foods they started to possess all types of diseases and illnesses such as heart disease and diabetes etc. We as a society have literally been poisoning ourselves with sugar and processed foods for decades.

So just as a bump to let you know, what it looks like I'm headed for is chemo with stem cell transplants. In patient therapy, I don't know how long it will last. I was basically told to get ready to spend months away from friends and family through the holidays. I meet with my oncologist tomorrow and will have the official word of whats going to happen, but it sounds like Tulane is going to unleash scorched earth in my body in a week or two and I'll be in the hospital until January ish, maybe later.

That was my second and third opinion and they're all in agreement.

I agree that the modern American diet is atrocious and is a large contributor to a multitude of health issues, but unfortunately simply changing your diet won’t cure your cancer once you have it. I wish it were that simple but unfortunately it isn’t

This is where my friend is at. He has been diagnosed with Clear Cell Kidney Cancer with secondary bone cancer.

Currently receiving radiation to attack the tumors that are all over his body and are causing pain.

Plan to attack (unknown by me) Kidney Cancer coming in a few weeks.

I know very little about Kidney Cancer. His first doctor, prior to the official diagnosis, said it was Kidney Cancer and gave him 1 year. He's since switched to MD Anderson. I'll do my own research shortly, but what is the prognosis here?

I was going to recommend MD Anderson. My mom has been battling cancer for a few years and is actually in the MD Anderson hospital this week doing her (hopefully) final surgery to remove the final tumors. The dr’s there are the best in the world and have been so helpful with my mother.

They made some recommendations that were different than other cancer dr’s she saw and it saved her life. Can not recommend them enough


MD Anderson is excellent, the best place to be in the South if you have cancer.

I do know he is considering MD Anderson in Houston, which I have heard is a great place to be if one should have cancer.


My good buddy had thyroid cancer and traveled to MD from Chicago (which has a shitload of great hospitals) for his treatment. Another friends wife, also from Chicago, has brain cancer and went to MD for her second opinion. Both of them couldn't possibly recommend it more.
