Re: [cancercured] Help me convince against chemotherapy

While it's my personal experience that those who choose chemo are simply not very open to alternatives, check out www.cancerdecisions.com.

If I recall correctly, there are several studies reviewed there, from Australia, Germany, and Italy, which evaluated the effects of chemo over time, with large databases. All the studies I remember showed zero or negligible increase in life span using chemo. Additionally, Ralph Moss has reports of what works and what doesn't for various cancer types. He also will generate personal reports tailored to the needs of the person. Ralph started out working for Memorial Sloan Kettering (not as an MD, but as a publicist, I think), and saw how promising alternative research was buried if it threatened the standard chemo/radiation/surgery. He was fired when he publicized results anyway.

He's not particularly "anti" chemo. He evaluates research work of all types, and advises which forms of treatment are successful for which types of cancer, without regard to "standard" or "alternative" labels.

Subject: [cancercured] Help me convince against chemotherapy

My friend called me up to ask for help convincing his mother to NOT go
through with chemotherapy.

This is the unfolding story so far,
http://www.myhealth blog.org/ 2008/04/20/ abdominal- pain-cancer- diagnosis- appendectomy- and-ligation/

I lent them my Dr. Day video rant against the cancer industry.

What other tools or messages or websites you have that can convince
people to not go through with chemotherapy?

Any help will be appreciated.
