Synopsis: This
article discusses the extreme importance of an optimistic attitude in
the successful treatment of cancer.
I have dealt with many people who had cancer.
Those who overcame had optimistic and aggressive attitudes. Those who
did not survive were weakly motivated and vacillated regarding what and
how they would do to fight the cancer. I know that this generalization
is unkind and even cruel to those who were weak and fought the best they
could to the end. I am not speaking of them. The ones that I reference
are those who were reasonably strong who "decided" that the
fight was not worth the effort, or who had no confidence in an
alternative program. I saw them die without trying. We have the
popular notion that people are entitled to their opinion. If this is
true, then we must consider that we are also obligated to receive the
consequences of our actions, including those brought about by our
attitude.
In March 2000, I met a man who sat slumped on his
sofa with an oxygen tube at his nose. "Emphysema?" I asked.
"Lung cancer." he responded. He then went on to tell me that
he had received his last chemotherapy treatment and he was waiting to
die. I asked him if he had considered an alternative treatment. He said
that he had heard of alternative cancer treatments. I asked him, point
blank, "Do you think that your life is not worth saving?" He
was very angry and said, "That's a #### of a thing to say!" I
asked him, "Well, it's true isn't it?" I meant no offense. I
can't understand that why, in the face of certain death, he would not
actively pursue an alternative treatment protocol.
Hospitals that specialize in alternative cancer
treatment can predict who will succeed and who will fail by the attitude
that is expressed by the patient. Success requires a strong, optimistic
and dedicated attitude. One must be tolerant of inconvenience and
some distress. Recognize that things will be different in your life for
a while or even for the rest of your life. You may have to give up some
favorite things. So what, do you want to survive? I have seen so may
complain because they can't have their favorite food. In the words
of Dr. Phil McGraw, "They just don't get it".
One person who overcame cancer with an effective
diet program, said to me: "I will never go back to the way I lived
and ate before". This is a winning attitude.
Patient, strive to be optimistic. Caregiver,
encourage the patient. Attitude can determine your success.

while they are not free, the authors have done extensive research and
some have had experience with thousands of cancer patients!
During
the past 100 years, medical practice has been conformed to the restraints
brought about by legal intervention to exclude many former practices and to
limit therapies to those that conform to the standards of the FDA and other
agencies. Prior to this time, many alternative protocols were openly
available. Some of these treatments are highly effective but are illegal to
prescribe because they don't conform to the current legal requirements.
It is therefore necessary for this site to limit its offering to information
only. We are not allowed to prescribe, so all decisions and outcomes are the
responsibility of the patient. If you have any doubts as to the validity of
this information, it is your responsibility to make your own choice and to
be responsible for the outcome of following your choices.
