I know a woman with cancer who was sent home to die by her doctors about
twelve years ago. She had Stage IV ovarian cancer and the chemo had almost
killed her. She saved her life using Benefin shark cartilage, which acts
as an antiangiogenesis factor, keeping the cancer from sending out blood
vessels to bring it nourishment. I learned about her on the forum at
Benfin web site, before the Feds shut them (Lane Labs) down for anything
but the most innocuous of "supplements" advertising a few years
ago. However, we have become friends by e-mail, and Kay gives away copies
of the book she wrote with her husband, documenting her disease and how she
saved herself.
I also had a teacher friend who had breast cancer metastasized to her
liver. Her onco docs knocked it out with chemo, though it was already
Stage IV when located. However, as always, it came back, and they told her
they could only buy her a little time, and put her on vincristine (I think
that is was it was, a last gasp chemo; I read up on it on the Net and
found that the average length of life left when a person in the study
started it was 25 weeks, and none lived as long as a year.). She was very
sick, the chemo shut down her intestinal tract, she had horrible mouth
sores and pain in the hands and feet. She knew it was all but over. At
that point, about October or November, I told her I thought she had nothing
to lose by trying Benefin, and she agreed. It takes about 12 weeks before
any sign of benefit is seen. At her checkup 12 weeks later, her doc's jaw
dropped and his eyebrows flew up when he read her lab reports. They were
improving, not getting worse. That was the first week of Feb. Well before
summer arrived, she should have been getting ready for her
funeral. Instead, she looked good, felt good, ate like a horse, worked at
school all week long, and played tennis twice a week. I guess she didn't
know she was supposed to be dead, soon.
However, as fall came on, the Cancer markers in her blood began to creep up
again, and her doc started her on more chemo. Her grown son went on the
Net to read about shark cartilage, and read all the Feds' and
Pharmaceutical houses' propaganda pages, saying it was useless (as indeed
it is, for some patients -- nothing works for everybody) and a scam. He
told his mom she was a damn fool for wasting her money that way. And so
she stopped taking the shark cartilage. Her deterioration was obvious, as
she suffered the same horrors from the chemo. We planned her birthday
party for the first week of February, exactly a year since her doc had been
so amazed at her improvement. Three weeks later, she was dead -- not of
the cancer, but of a massive infection that started as a cold on Tuesday,
and took her life the following Monday, overpowering her ruined immune system.
Here is the thing that still gives me goose bumps to think about it. I
learned from Kay's book about three years later that when the cancer is on
the ropes and all but beaten, it starts to disintegrate and enters the
blood stream for elimination from the body. At that time, the cancer
markers go up because of that, but patients panic and think the cancer is
back instead of almost beaten. Then, they do as Tina did and go back on
the chemo. She might be alive today if her son hadn't gone surfing on the
Web that day!
If you would like to get a copy of Kay's book, or write to her, e-mail that
you would like to hear from her. She is a missionary for cancer patients,
in the truest sense, and a real shining role model. I have had cancer
(lumpectomy and radiation, 6 1/2 years ago), so I keep up on alternatives,
because I know it can come back anytime. Kay is a heroine to me, for
trying to help others walking in the Valley of the Shadow. I could post
her e-mail here, but that would be unfair, and I would rather just serve as
the go between. Post your questions and I will forward the Silver List to
her and she can answer.
Oh, yes, her onco doc who was so upset with her twelve years ago when she
turned her back and went with Benefin, now has opened an alternative
treatment clinic in AZ with some other doctors, to provide additional
treatment modalities besides the ones that almost killed Kay. Guess she
made the point for him!
