Black Salve for the treatment of cancer

[C~Q]

Oooh thanks guys! Helle, i've been trying to find one with no luck?? In Brissy or Sunshine Coast...

The only thing his ******** Docs will do now is operate and thats a big no no from DP...they barely even see him for 5 mins now he won't do what they want. Get him in, quick look in his ear and shove him out the door :/ With a quick "you're killing yourself" on the way out

Will read up on the breast milk thing thanks guys x

CQ, TBH I have concerns about the type of treatment you've mentioned, the vast majority of material online indicates that it's pretty radical, i suspect he could end up with a wound which is more difficult to manage than a surgical one. I understand he has his reasons why he is avoiding surgery (and after all, only he can choose) but surgery does tend to be the first line of treatment for most cancers, as crude as that is. I think you need to remember that cancer is essentially an IMMUNE SYSTEM disorder - cancerous cells are formed all the time in healthy people but the difference is their immune systems hunt them down and destroy them. So anything he can do from a wholistic viewpoint can make the difference. Has he looked at Ian Gawler's treatment regimen? It might be worth getting himself down to the Gawler foundation in Vic for an intensive, or even to Petrea King's place (she's in the NSW southern highlands I think). Just taking b17 and A seems to be pretty crude, my naturopath (who worked in oncology for many years before integrating it with her naturopathy) had me on everything from fish oil to antioxidants and mushroom extracts, plus a whole heap of stuff to support bowel health. If the b17 and a is under his friend's supervision, then I'd be a little worried, it doesnt seem like she is very experienced in this area, kwim? (too simplistic). Chemotherapy works because it is systemic medicine, so any alternative treatments also need to use systemic mechanisms in the body too. There may be a complementary/alternative cancer centre up there that might be a starting point for locating some reputable practitioners (I found the centre here in SA by phoning the Cancer Council helpline). I've emailed my naturopath too in case she has some contacts up there as well. xxx

Thank you so much! Ok so I can see I have every right to be worried...i'll show him all this stuff and hopefully he'll look at it all objectively although it seems to me he has made up his mind

Yeddi, over the past 3 years he has done so many different things on and off, I think he sees this as his last hope. He won't let them operate because they won't do the smaller op he wants them to do, only a massive one which removes the side of his head and ear and will leave hiim with (poss permenant) vretigo and loss of balance. He lives by himself (i'm an hour and half away) and he's worried about looking after himself and not being able to drive etc.... It's an Adenoide Cystic Carcenoma and it's still in his ear at the mo...no spreading and not in the bone.

MD - again, ****, thank you...i'm not sure all the things he has tried but I know there are a lot! His yoga guru had him on a lot of weird things and diet etc...he's spent so much money a=on all these little tings that haven't seemed to do much. Thank you so much for emailing your natropath...I am so bloody lost with all this x

I agree. There is not a lot of flesh in the area that your DP's naturopath is planning on putting this salve, which leaves a lot less room for error and can cause some damage. Conventional medicine is not the enemy (even though it acts like it sometimes), there are occasions where it is exactly what is needed.

CQ, my naturopath has got back to me and she doesn't know any one up that way to recommend. Sorry!

It's so difficult to judge the effectiveness of whatever you're doing when it comes to cancer, even the drs are at a loss to work it out. I saw a man on RPA the other night who had this pretty radical operation to his head, cut a whole chunk out and put a massive skin graft over the lot - pretty disfiguring and I thought as I was watching it, they really don't go into the impact that has had on the rest of his life. He was very grateful as he was well into his 60s and felt the treatment he'd had had already given him 4 or 5 extra years, but I couldn't help thinking how ****ted off he would've been if he was in his 30s and having to deal with all of this. So maximum hugs and compassion for what your DP is going through. None of us can really say what decisions we would make in that situation and faced with the sort of decision in front of him. I'm sure he's already had several surgical opinions, I just hope (for him) that he is making his decisions from a place where he feels that push from his spirit that it's the right thing for him, and not just out of fear of the alternative, kwim? Because no matter which way the physical illness goes, it's that inner stuff that determines the quality of life that you have.
