You have cancer. Three words we all hate and dread to hear. Most of us are taken back. We didn’t ever expect it to happen to us. Now here we are with some possibly major decisions to make. Decisions that could mean the difference between life or death. What route am I going to take? Shall I go conventional or seek out alternatives? I want to highly encourage you to thoroughly do your homework either way. Make an informed decision. Not one you are rushed into by someone else. This is, afterall, your one and only life here.
Should anyone decide to go conventional you need to go home and do a lot of research. Serious, time consuming, laboring HW. Please don’t just hand over all control of your life to a complete stranger whose not nearly as interested in you as you and your family are. After your doctor has told you what his plan is for you, go home and read every thing about it you can find on the internet. How effective is it? What’s the rate of recurrence? Is there anyone alive to testify two years later? Does it give you any hope or a sense of deep dread? See if there are other treatment plans. Check out some cutting edge experts in your area. It may be worth the trip. There’s some interesting new research being done, especially overseas. Read all about it. Just don’t take the words your local doctor has spoken over you as the gospel. It’s not the final word unless you let it be and it’s certainly not the only remedy out there. Don’t be afraid and become completely paralyzed by the current situation. Instead, be bold…educate and empower yourself. Then on your next visit go in prepared with written down, thought out, well informed questions. You may frustrate you doctor by the fact that you dare ask him questions since he already told you his plan. If that happened to me, I’d find a new doctor. Also, make sure to check out the National Mortality Database and look at the statistics for your disease before your appt. If your treatment only buys you one or two years at the most, consider do you want to spend them in the hospital doing chemo and making yourself so sick that you only wish you were already dead only to live six more months.
Next, especially if you were given a so called grave prognosis, I want to encourage you. Still continue researching, remember it’s not over until the fat lady sings. If you or a loved one were given a death sentence by conventional medicine, or told to have some radical surgery that you don’t want to undergo, then another alternative is to look up natural therapies. What? Natural therapy with my kind of cancer! You must be joking. No, I most definetely am not. I ask you, if you’ve already been stamped terminal, what do you have to lose?
The day I found out I had cancer I came home and immediately got on the computer. I typed in “Natural Cures for Breast Cancer.” The very first thing that popped up was the Budwig protocol. After researching it and reading testimonies of once “terminal” people that are alive five, ten, twenty years later still being cancer free, I decided that was the route for me. I then went to bed that night, slept like a baby, and I’ve never looked back. I have absolute perfect peace about it. And here’s the great news. It’s working. My tumor has shrunk in half. All I had to do was change my diet and develope a healthier lifestyle. Beats the heck out of a double radical mastectomy, radiation, chemo and breast reconstruction. So you see there are choices to make that unfortunately most people never exercise.
I’ve decided to have a theme each month for my blogs. Since January is always the month of New Year Resolutions, I’m dedicating Jan to the Budwig Protocol. This diet and lifestyle change could not only help you to regain your health, but tremendously improve your life overall.
Health and Healing to All,
Cynthia Auer
