Cancer Treatments that work

What can 4 weddings and a funeral teach us about metastatic liver cancer? Shouldn’t it more be like 4 funerals and a wedding?

 

No it shouldn’t!

 

Metastatic liver cancer treatment

 

We just got 3 updates, 2 from metastatic liver cancer survivors and one from a person who wants to survive metastatic liver cancer.

 

Let’s start with Jim’s son’s metastatic liver cancer: see his comment at Jim’s son’s victory over metastatic liver cancer.

 

It has been 10 months since my son was diagnosed with liver mets and colon cancer and he is still with us thank God.

He is on his 10th round of chemo therapy and has had is oral chemo increased to 1500mg/day. He is doing ok and is in good spirits even though some days he is down.

His cancer counters have stabilised at about 300 from a low of 80 and a high of 2300 which is good. The oncologist has said he wants to make sure the colon cancer is ‘dead’ and then they can make some decisions as what to do and has said there are quite a few options open to them. His liver mets have calcified and as far as I know they are no longer a threat at this moment; which is good.

He is still taking all the alternative cancer treatments prescribed by his aunt and is looking good. No hair loss no sickness. etc.

That’s about all at the moment. I will keep you informed. Good luck to you all, and if you can find a good alternative practitioner which I a sure in our case has helped immensely.

Now welcome Mark, our latest metastatic liver cancer survivor who left this comment at Jim’s son’s victory over metastatic liver cancer :

 

I was diagnosed with Metastatic liver cancer in January 2009

  1. I had 5 rounds of chemotherapy: Carboplatin, Etoposide
     
  2. Took supplements (CoEnzyme Q10, selenium, Zeolite, apricot kernels)
     
  3. I started eating only organic foods, very little meat (occasional organic chicken) – basically vegetarian
     
  4. Went to the Gawler Foundation in Melbourne which encourages meditation, diet etc for cancer sufferers and
     
  5. is a wonderful, hope-filled place.

 

I am now in remission (they never found the primary), and feel better than I have in 20 years. So metastatic liver cancer I think can be beaten – but it takes a change in lifestyle to do it!

 

What Mark says boils down to how Jim’s son is surviving metastatic liver cancer and what we are saying in our sidebar : change your lifestyle so your body can beat the cancer as such:

 

  1. Use conventional medicine like chemotherapy, surgery and/or radiation therapy.
     
  2. Use alternative cancer treatments to boost your immune system and overall health:
     
    1. the healthier you are: the better you can fight of diseases and
    2. the healthier you are: the better chemotherapy could work for you
       
  3. follow a healthy diet based on organic roducts
     
  4. Follow an holistic health approach: having a healthy spirit in a healthy body:
     
    1. focus on less stress,
    2. more relaxation,
    3. more exercise (Jim’s son is swimming twice a week for both exercise and relaxation),
       
  5. Surround yourself with as many loving and helpful creatures you can find and believe there is a cure.

 

So when Robert Bruno Jr. asks in a comment at How to survive secondary liver cancer :

 

My father is suffering from secondary liver cancer from unknown primary. Doctors have given up on him, but we haven’t. Chemo, they say has not worked. Please help us if you can!

 

We can only say: show your doctor Jim’s survivor story because all doctors I encountered never saw a patient living through metastatic liver cancer.

 

As long as your doctors don’t know of any survival case, they don’t believe in a cure so they don’t want to put more time and effort in curing metastatic liver cancer.

 

Get inspired by Jim’s son and all our other metastatic liver cancer survivors.

 

Change your lifestyle drastically to a healthy one and know that chemotherapy supported by alternative cancer treatments has much more chance of success than only the chemotherapy. If you want to beat metastatic liver cancer, you have to do everything right,
not simply change 1 aspect of your life.

    Help…I dont want to lose my mother. Breast cancer 8 years ago, now found in the liver multiple legions. Cant they just cut it out? Having tests fear it may be else where. Keep u posted as to results.Australia seems behind U.S. She is only 61, so fit and healthy and beautiful and my best friend. Chemo or no chemo, she survived it 8 years ago. No checks picked this up sjhe asked for tests as she thought she had gawl stones. Hopeless?? Do people EVER live more than 12 months with this besides Jims son? Heidi

  5. Secondary Liver Cancer on December 19th, 2009 10:04 pm

    Dear Heidi,

    We have a few more survivor stories on our side, mainly to show an example that when you believe and make an overly extra effort that “normal doctors” don’t make, you can survive. Unfortunately: hospitals tell you: the chances of surviving are small, and we never saw any, so we are going to use our resources to cure people we believe we can cure.

    Cutting the cancer out of the liver can when it is 1 tumor. However, if the tumor is like my father’s tumor, you could compare his liver with a bread and his tumors as the raisins in the raisin bread. Try to get all the raisins out of a raisin bread… it’s not easy.

    If “all” gets cut out, there is still the primary cancer sending new cancer cells to the liver, so the primary cancer should be cured first logically.

    Please keep us posted and feel free to comment any time. Hugs for you and your family.

    hey there…
    We are 3 weeks into knowing of mums metasatic liver cancer.She has 6 legions, one rather big at 10 cms. She has no pain is mainly herself and occasionaly tired.Presently you would barely know she is ill. A little tenderness under ribs. She has it in no other organs, but found a spot it may be in the bone. we are having a recommended 2 month rest before chemo, but I cant rest.I research day and night for answers to this, just to help her. Food is a huge answer, no sugar. We are looking into Holts radio wave therapy available here in Oz. She is so strong. She is happy as cancer in no other organs gave her hope. Hope is powerful.We accept it all now, dont expect too much but hope and act for the best. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. To fight for life is such a natural thing, what a beautiful world we have, want to keep my mummy with me in it as long as I can.Ill write soon.Sad that woeful conditions like this cancer exist. Heidi

    Dear Heidi,

    It is ‘good’ to see that your mom barely knows that she is ill. In your fight to beat the cancer, do get inspired by Jim’s son happy 1 year metastatic liver cancer anniversary.

    Main thing to do is do everything right, like you can read on the right side bar of this page. Jim’s son does mention that mushrooms seems to have a positive effect, but don’t fall in the trap of hoping there is one magic thing to change in order for your mom to get better: beating cancer is about doing everything right!

    Be realistic: the metastatic liver survivors are few on our site, and the doctors advising you to do like Jim’s son are none on this site. We pray that your mom will be our next metastatic liver cancer survivor.

    Hugs and drop by any time with more questions or just when you need to recharge your batteries!

    My friend Christine will be the next liver cancer survivor. She has been fighting Her2 negative and positive cancer for 4 years. She is now taking Avistan for secondary liver cancer. She attends regular exercise sessions and is very careful about what she eats. Her, her family and friends are determined she will beat this. I believe that if ANYONE – CAN beat such a thing. She will. Jims story gives me hope and it is time to add another survivor to the list!
    Go Chrissy!

    Another update on Jim’s son 2/2/2010.

    He has just come home from seeing the oncologist this afternoon. The Erbitux seems to be doing the job. His cnacer counts have just about halved and the blood picture is good and he has gained weight and also looks good even though a little thin. He doesn’t have to see the oncologist for another three weeks but still has to have the weekly infusion of the drug. The oncologist was as ecstatic as my wife when he got the results.

    Things are looking good at the moment. Keep inspired. Best wishes and prayers for you all.

    Jim
