It is no longer necessary to settle for "big three" of conventional cancer treatment -- surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. Today's cancer patients die for only three reasons: 1) Lack of information; 2) Lack of discipline; and 3) Blind trust in their cancer doctors.

MY STORY

On November 1, 1994, my former wife, Marjorie, passed on. She had lived a wonderfully productive and really unique life. I loved her dearly.

Watching her being treated by conventional cancer "system" etched memories that will never go away. I was puzzled and frustrated by barbaric nature of treatments and extreme pain she endured for four years. I saw dozens of other cancer patients hooked up to IVs and submitting to what seemed horribly toxic and ineffective "treatment."

Nobody was able to explain cause of this mysterious invader gradually eating away at my wife's vitality and life force. "Is there no better way?" I wondered.

Beginning in 1998, I became aware of tidal wave of information building on Internet about cancer (and everything else!). I vowed to take Marjorie's advice and "turn lemons into lemonade." I began researching book that became an e-book in November, 2000. I have updated it continuously and rewritten it three times since then. Today, it is also available as a "real" book. The latest edition, called "Cancer-Free" is result of four years of feedback from doctors, nurses, cancer researchers, cancer survivors and cancer "crusaders" like me all over world.

WHY YOU NEED TO GET SMART ABOUT CANCER

When you first walk into oncologist's office after your cancer diagnosis, you need to be smarter than he or she is about cancer. What? Smarter than cancer specialist? Yes. Exactly. If you want to survive your cancer and get your cancer under control, you need to be smarter than your oncologist.

Why?

THE CANCER "SYSTEM"

All conventional cancer treatment today is driven and controlled by drug company money. Any competition is brutally suppressed, with cooperation of our Federal and State governments. Many books have been written on this subject, some better than others. One especially good one is "Politics in Healing," by Daniel Haley. The fact of corruption is very real. Don't you be a victim of it.

A FEW FACTS

* Since 1930's in U.S. alone, over 150 treatments for cancer which are gentle and non-toxic have healed cancer patients. Some treatmetns have healed hundreds. Many have healed thousands. I know many of these people well. Why won't you hear about these from your cancer doctor? Because they are all natural substances. Therefore, they cannot be patented and offer no profit to pharmaceutical companies. This simple fact drives all conventional cancer treatments.

* Since 1971, when President Nixon declared "War on Cancer," cancer deaths per 100,000 population have risen steadily. If you were General in charge of this "war," you almost certainly would have scrapped your strategy for something different by now. Instead we, taxpayers, keep funding National Cancer Institute (NCI). This year their budget request is for $6.2 billion (with a "b") of your tax money. This agency was established in 1937. Not once in their 67-year history have they honestly tested even one of 150 "alternative" substances mentioned above.

These doctors are ones I pay attention to. There are thousands of them today, all over world. In Chapter 1 of my book "Cancer- Free," I list eleven website directories of these "holistic" doctors and clinics in virtually every country. They are Medical Doctors (M.D.s), Doctors of Osteopathy (D.O.s), Naturopathic Doctors (N.D.s), Chiropractors (D.C.s) and "others." Each of these websites has a feature where you can type in your Zip Code and you will be shown a list of these doctors in your area. In my experience, letters after their names are far less important than properly interviewing them, which I also cover in Chapter 1 of my book.

There are many of these doctors who publish information and comments about their profession. Here are some of quotes which you may find interesting.

1. From an oncologist:

"We have a multi-billion dollar industry that is killing people, right and left, just for financial gain. Their idea of research is to see whether two doses of this poison is better than three doses of that poison."

Glen Warner, M.D., Oncologist

2. From a cardiologist and internist who treated 65,000 patients at his five-story hospital before he slipped on ice outside his hospital and died from blow to his head in early 2003:

"There have been many cancer cures, and all have been ruthlessly and systematically suppressed with a Gestapo-like thoroughness by cancer establishment. The cancer establishment is not-too-shadowy association of American Cancer Society, leading cancer hospitals, National Cancer Institute, and FDA. The shadowy part is fact that these respected institu- tions are very much dominated by members and friends of members of pharmaceutical industry, which profits so incredibly much from our profession-wide obsession with chemotherapy."

Robert C. Atkins, M.D., Author, "Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution" and founder, The Atkins Center in New York.

3. From a "holistic" physician who publishes a regular newsletter which I wouldn't miss because of his common sense.
