”According to the New York Times, adjusting for the size and age of the population, cancer death rates dropped only 5 percent from 1950 to 2005.
What other technology has performed so miserably over this fifty-five year period? Would you accept a medical therapy that has not improved much since 1950″ ???
As you all well know, I am SO sick of hearing all this “cancer awareness” month stuff – Cancer DOESN”T kill people – Chemo and radiation are what kill!
As of today, October 25th, Most of the people I knew that were diagnosed with cancer and have done the chemo/radiation route have passed on. Oh, I suppose I should mention – everyone on Gerson Therapy is alive and very well!
A young wife and a little baby boy grieve for their father.
Another wife, and two young children grieve for their father – who was diagnosed with melanoma at the same time I was.
A daughter grieves for her father.
I guess I can’t say each one. A very concerned, loving husband and father came to my practice the other day. He had heard about me, and came to talk to me about his wife. She had breast cancer, and went through the typical chemo/radiation route, and was told she was fine. She got in a car accident one year later, and her bones were so brittle, they broke. The doctors questioned why that would have happened. Well, turns out she had bone cancer now, that had spread throughout her body. She was told she was cancer free! Sadly, this is what happens with most of the “cured” by chemo and radiation cancers. We talked for quite some time, he was going to bring the scrapbook I made of my time in Mexico and my blog to his wife, and I just got an email saying she is just too tired, and doesn’t have the energy. I remember a family friend saying if you just want to give up and die, go ahead and do chemo and radiation. It will make your time go MUCH quicker.
There is SO much work that needs to be done. It is crazy to me that our society just accepts things, and never questions – doesn’t it seem odd to anyone else that your ONLY options are chemo, radiation, and surgery?
I am so happy to see the pinkwashing – Think Before You Pink campaign. http://thinkbeforeyoupink.org/?page_id=12 the word IS getting out, and hopefully people will stop with the completely terrible mammographies and go for thermography if they feel it is necessary. This group was started in 2002 by a growing number of people who wanted to draw attention to the joke that is the Susan G Komen Foundation. How concerned are you really about breast cancer, when you sell a perfume full of carcinogens for $60, and $1.59 goes to research? I will just ignore the fried chicken, donuts, and other sugar filled (cancer feeding) junk they promote!
Chatting with my insurance company, I asked them about my supplements. I pay $500 a month for my supplements. My insurance company won’t pay a DIME for any part of my therapy. Let’s make a logical choice on this one:
Gerson Therapy:
Plane tickets, stay in Mexico – $15,000
Juicer, Supplements, Food – $10,000/year
Total Cost – $25,000 for the first year, then maybe $10,000 the next year dramatically lower the third year.
Success Rate – 70- 90%
Medical Treatment
Surgery time in OR ($75/min) – $31,500
Chemo and Radiation treatments – $800,000
Total cost – $831,000 – that is without the cost of ANY of the drugs needed for surgery, the staff, the hospital stays
Success rate – 2.5% in 5 years
Now, if I was a smart insurance company, what would I choose? doesn’t seem like a very tough decision, but medicine wins every time! And people wonder why our country is so bankrupt….
Amen.
I have a brother-in-law and a son-in-law who are doctors. They, and doctors in general, are very caring and concerned people who really want you to get well. So much so that they spent a lot of time and money going to medical school. Unfortunately, all of the education they get, from the time they sign up for medical school and through all of the “continuing education” they get after starting or joining a practice, until they retire is from big pharma. And, they are required by law to follow “conventional medical protocol” as dictated by big pharma through their lap dog, the FDA. If they don’t, they lose their license to practice, at the least. Natural (or alternate) medicine is strictly off limits for them unless the patient is knowledgeable about it and requests it. The irony is that if the patient is knowledgeable about natural health and healing, they really don’t need the doctor. All the patient really needs to do is to depend on their “Primary Health Care Provider” (God) to guide them in their research. As long as we have the internet, there is a wealth of information available on virtually all diseases, and their causes and cures. It takes surprisingly little time to become more knowledgeable about your specific disease than your doctor. Bottom line – if are sick and you really want to save your life, don’t depend on your doctor (or oncologist) – depend on YOURSELF! However, if you are not feeling well, have a broken bone or hernia etc, go to the doctor! They really are great at fixing broken things, and diagnosing disease so you can decide the route you want to follow to get well again.
absolutely! medicine is amazing, and very much needed – in emergency situations, like you said – I do forget at times to continue to mention that, but I completely understand that! thank you for the reminder
Hello Webmaster, I noticed that http://mschaeferdc.wordpress.com/2011/10/26/chemo-kills-cancer-doesnt/ is ranking pretty low for some keywords, this may be due to the new Google Panda update, or it could be due to a variety of other factors. I’m sure you already know about On-page SEO, where Google cares highly about proper formatting of various H1/H2/H3 tags, having your main keyword appear in the beginning of your post and having your post end with the keyword, along with having keyword related alt tags and very relevant LSI. However, you do not seem to have the proper Keywords or relevant Keywords in your posts and in the website. Right now you need a tool or plugin that will allow you to check on Keyword insights, search trends and check for backlink analysis and to find out your Keyword competition.

Hello Web Admin, I noticed that your On-Page SEO is not that great, for one you do not use all three H tags in your post, also I notice that you are not using bold or italics properly in your SEO optimization. On-Page SEO means more now than ever since the new Google update: Panda. No longer are backlinks and simply pinging or sending out a RSS feed the key to getting Google PageRank or Alexa Rankings, You now NEED On-Page SEO. So what is good On-Page SEO?First your keyword must appear in the title.Then it must appear in the URL.You have to optimize your keyword and make sure that it has a nice keyword density of 3-5% in your article with relevant LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing). Then you should spread all H1,H2,H3 tags in your article.Your Keyword should appear in your first paragraph and in the last sentence of the page. You should have relevant usage of Bold and italics of your keyword.There should be one internal link to a page on your blog and you should have one image with an alt tag that has your keyword….wait there’s even more Now what if i told you there was a simple WordPress plugin that does all the On-Page SEO, and automatically for you?

Thank you for this post! The facts that you provided at the beginning are exactly what we needed to know right now, on Day #6 of diagnosis. We’re feeling stronger as a result of the hope provided by this therapy. This will work!!!
It is frustrating that our medical society can instill such fear in people with a diagnosis of any sort. They crave the dependancy, not the free thinkers, which you obviously are by choosing this path – congrats to both of you, it is the best way to heal!
I was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer aug 22, 2011. I was first diagnosed 2 years ago with stage 2, I did chemo radiation, and surgery. Did not work! I went to mexico for a month which was so hard because I have a 6 year old and 3 year old. My entire family is very supportive. I’ve been following gerson religiously for 3 months. I would love to keep in contact with you.. I just happened to find your blog.
