You have been told your cancer is terminal

What a terrible moment this is - to be told by your doctor that there is nothing more that they can do for you. There are two ways to respond to this news:

1. The path of dying

2. The path of living

The Path of Dying

For some people there is a kind of relief in knowing that they are going to die. There may be worries about pain or leaving people behind but essentially there is a relief that the fighting is over. They can relax now. They've done what they can and there's nothing more to do. If this is how you feel, then accept it. Do the things you need to do and forget about the things you no longer need to do. You may want to explore this path further by going to Amazon and doing a book search on 'dying'. I am assured the books of Elisabeth Kubler-Ross are particularly recommended, especially her book On Death and Dying.

The Path of Living

For many people the news that their cancer is 'terminal' is just the start of the story. They want to live and they will do anything they can to achieve that objective.

Take Anne Frahm, who was told that all the surgery, chemo and even the bone marrow transplant had failed. The cancer was back and she had at most months to live. She took herself to a nutritionist and within five weeks was declaring herself cancer-free. She went on to live another ten years. Then there was

Michael Gearin-Tosh, a British academic at Oxford University, who was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma - he found a textbook that informed him of his fate: "Multiple myeloma is incurable. The median survival time from clinical confirmation to death is under a year in untreated patients and two to three years with treatment." Gearin-Tosh refused to have treatment. Instead he put together his own alternative treatment plan and when he died eleven years later he was cancer-free. Both Anne Frahm and Michael Gearin-Tosh were 'terminal' yet they both lived for over ten years. They are not alone.

Beata Bishop is alive today 25 years after being told her malignant melanoma was terminal. She cured herself with a dietary plan that is still not accepted by the medical establishment today. There are many others. I have a number of other stories in my books about people who recovered from 'terminal' cancer.

If they can do it, you can do it too.

Will-power is the key to success but you too could be cancer free within six weeks or ten or fifteen. If you want to live, I suggest you start reading my books. They will give you new leads - and I hope new hope.

Good luck to you.
