I had no "long term" treatment. Six weeks of radiation therapy and about four months of chemo. Yes, it was costly. There were doctors and technicians to pay. There was equipment. There were drugs. But I think I got a pretty good deal.
I was encouraged by some to avoid chemotherapy. I knew at least two people who chose alternative therapy. They are dead. I am not. I don't regret my decision and and do not feel like I was taken advantage of.
Yes, there's a "chance" it will come back but after 23 years it's pretty unlikely. It's actually about as likely that it will show up in me as it will in you. If it does, it will be your decision. No one else's.

Well the only cure for disease is your immune system - just have to have a strong enough immune system to combat the disease.
Normal cells contain an enzyme called rhodanese, which combines with free cyanide, thus binding it so that it's harmless. This frees the glucose that had been combined with the cyanide, making it available for conversion to energy. Cancer cells, though, contain very small amounts of rhodanese. However, they do have large quantities of beta-glucosidase, which is in short supply in normal cells. Beta-glucosidase separates the glucose bound with cyanide and leaves the volatile hydrogen cyanide form. This effectively frees the cyanide to act as a poison inside the cancerous cell. Thus, the cancerous cell, in grabbing its nutrition, frees a poisonous substance inside its own skin. So, the hyperreactive hydroden cyanide is free to do its nasty work only inside cells that are destructive. There's a little poetic justice in that!
I've been having a look at using apricot pits as a treatment for cancer (not that I have it or anything) over the past couple of days, the science does seem to be quite legit

this is incredibly ignorant. if you werent aware there are already several cures for cancer. miracle mineral solution is proven to work. as well as hemp/cannabis oil. the latter working so effectively as to cure people who are already in supposedly terminal stages.
in terms of the fraudelant evil cancer charities and western doctors they dont find a cure because they dont want to. and no they wont find one because they make too much money from there expensive and innefective treatments. plus cancer is a big killer and we all know tptb want as many of the population dead.
