I was recovering from my fall for about 2 months. I almost fully regained my health, and I was looking forward to going home to Penang. Suddenly I had a relapse. My left leg was very weak and painful. I could not stand up. I was not able to walk again.
I was taken to hospital C (in Johore) which is about 1 hour’s drive from Singapore. The doctor did a scan of my head. The swelling had grown bigger. The next morning, the neurosurgeon, my wife and daughter sat down for a discussion. What option do I have now?
The surgeon laid out only one possibility – undergo an operation immediately. I asked the doctor some questions.
Can the surgery “kill” the patient? Like during the surgery, the patient just died. While this is possible, it is not likely it will happen in my case.
Can surgery cure me? Not likely. There is NO cure. The fluid may come back again.
Looking at my case, can surgery help me to regain some aspects of my health? Most likely but there is no guarantee.
Do I need to do more surgeries in the future? Surgery after surgery? May be, no one can predict this.
Based on the answers I got, I have decided there and then that I would proceed with the surgery. I have no other choice. I don’t know if there is any non-medical alternative to my problem either. In other wards I am ignorant like most cancer patients. Yes, over the years, I have helped many patients with CANCER of the brain, and they recovered. But my case I don’t have brain cancer!
My only request to the doctor and my family members is do not try to be a super hero. If my chances of survival or recovery is remote, please don’t try to save me at any cost. Let me go in peace. I don’t want to suffer – drag on and on until I die. It is not worth it. I am ready to die.
A friendly anaesthetist visited me to explain what is involved in the surgery. I was to be given a general anesthesia injection. This anesthestics will gradually make me “go to sleep”. The surgeon shall then work on me. There will be no pain!
So, the question – did I make the right decision to undergo this emergency operation? Let me say that I received a “miraculous healing” immediately after the operation. Before the operation, I could not move my left leg – no strength and painful. After the operation, my left leg immediately had more strength and all pain disappeared. In fact, my left leg is now much stronger than the right leg. Thank you, doc, for your help. The operation did a lot of good for me.
Let me be clear. I am not anti-doctor, although I am critical with what some doctors do or tell their doctors to do. I have read enough books written by medical experts themselves who warn readers about being taken for a free ride by their doctors. So be careful.
The mani reason why I agreed to the surgery was because I fully trusted the neurosurgeon who is operating on me.
He is humble and caring person. I could “see” the sincerity in hm in wanting to help his patients under his care. I am aware that all “humans” can only try their best but they cannot guarantee or promise a cure! Yes, the surgeon did admit to that – but he was willing enough to do his best. He did NOT tell me – Ah, your case is easy, I can cure you (like a certain famous oncologist told his patients!). I have heard enough of such “fake” assurance! The surgeon’s honestly is the prime factor that made me trust him. Great doc., thank you for your concern and willingness to give your best! I understand, the final outcome, is in God’s hands, not ours.
The surgery was scheduled for 8 p.m. or slightly later. This would take about 4 hours!
God’s Blessing!
By mid-night, I received a message: Operation successfully completed.
When I agreed to the surgery, I accept the fact that before mid-night, that is in the next 5 hours I may die. So, I was calm and was not worried or stressful. Let Your will be done, Lord.
Thank God I am still alive! And am able to share my story with you all.
When I woke up on the morning of 2 April 2024, Im told me that she had a dream. Ina, our cancer patient and a good friend, came to her in a dream.
In my dream, Ina was wearing a bright dress with many colors, and
everything looked bright and cheerful. I felt happy.
Chris was busy working at his computer – his back facing us.
Ina and I were happily sharing something on another computer when
she took out a cartridge and inserted it into a gadget and told me that we may have duplicates of some pictures. She said: There is no need to make copies of everything. I said something (that I cannot remember).
Then she turned to the left and picked up two babies, one on each arm and showed them to me.
I told her not to strain herself. She smiled and said it is okay.
That was when I woke up suddenly. I looked at the clock in my room – it was 7:30 a.m. I felt very afraid – my heart was very troubled. For a long while, I dared not check my handphone for fear of receiving any bad news about Ina.
There was a message in our whatsapp: Aunty passed on early this morning.
To be honest, this sad news came as no surprise. When you have metastatic cancer, we know that there is no cure. There will be a day when we need to accept that death will come. That is the final cure for cancer. But while we are still alive, let us pray that there is no suffering and we go in peace. This is the message I would like to share with you.
That same evening, Im and I went to pay our last respect to Ina and got to meet some members of her family. Although the mood was sober no one showed any feeling of desperation – everyone in the family did their best and Ina’s time was up and she left without any suffering. Amazingly after (or before?) she left Ina visited Im in her dream.
There is no denying, this is a good death.
Let me recall what happened to Ina – whom I wrote about in our book Breast Cancer – Sharing our 25 years of experience.
Her Tango with Breast Cancer
Ina was 51 years old when she was diagnosed with Stage 2 left breast cancer with nodal metastases. This was 12 years ago – around July 2012. She underwent surgery to remove the cancerous breast but refused further medical treatment – no radiation , no chemo and no tamoxifen, etc. She opted for our therapy – i. e., herbs and change of diet.
Why did she not want to go for chemo, radiotherapy, etc.? Unfortunately, Ina came from a family with cancer problems. She once told me that 50% of her family members got cancer. Both her father and mother died of cancer and she saw how they suffered. No, she would not want to go through all those tortures.
For 8 years (2012 to 2020), Ina was doing well and led a perfectly normal life. She took care of her diet very well and was serious about taking care of her health. She once told me that she hoped to live for “another 30 years”.
But it was not to be. The world was struck by the Covid-19 epidemic. During this lockdown period we did not get to see much of Ina. She was out of our radar. During this time, something was brewing up.
Ina had her Sinovac vaccination:
First dose: 9 July 2021
Second dose: 30 July 2021
Booster dose: 12 December 2021
Her blood test results on 17 September 2022 showed “good health, nothing abnormal”, as below:
ESR = 10
Platelet count = 271
Liver function tests = all values within normal range.
Alpha fetoprotein = less than 1.3
CA 125 = 4.8 (normal)
CA 15.3 = 14.9 (normal)
CA 19.3 = 28.7 (normal)
CEA = 0.9 (normal)
Ina was infected with Covid-19 on 25 September 2022 – in spite of the vaccination received earlier.
Ina became breathless and came to seek our help. She was given Lung Tea. After taking Lung Tea she felt okay.
Blood test on 10 May 2023 showed deteriorating results:
ESR = 52 High
Platelet count = 275
CA 125 = 4.7
CA 15.3 = 65.5 High
CA 19.9 = 48.8 High
PET scan on 14 September 2023 showed more serious condition.
The metabolically active left lung mass with multiple neck, axillary and mediastinal nodes. Left pleura and bone lesions are likely due to primary lung malignancy.
However, metastatic breast cancer recurrence cannot be excluded.
Ina continued to take the lung herbs. In view of the above PET scan results (now suggesting that she might have lung cancer besides breast cancer!) I suggested that Ina seek medical opinion and help in addition to taking our herbs. Ina made it clear to me that whatever it is, she was not prepared to go for chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
Ina still managed to lead a normal life but many times she felt breathless to the point of not being able to walk much. Another problem she faced was wind or gas in her stomach which made her uncomfortable.
One day in early 2024, Ina, her husband, son and daughter came to our house for consultation – What to do now? This was my advice to Ina.
Yes, by all means go and consult the doctor and see what the cancer expert(s) can offer you.
I have done my best for you – for the pasts 12 years – and now, I don’t have any more herbs to make your problems go away.
Ina said the oncologist wanted her to do a biopsy and PET scan and most probably follow up with oral chemo or immunotherapy drugs.
To be fair to Ina, I told her I am not going to give my opinion on this – she will have to make that decision herself. If that is the only route to take, just give it a try.
I may give my thoughts but you and your family must come together, discuss and decide what to do.
I asked Ina to take Lung Phlegm tea together with the Lung tea. This was to help her with the laboured breathing. It was indeed surprising that Ina told us she became normal again after taking this tea. I talked to her over the phone. Her voice was strong like any healthy person.
I received these messages:
28 March 20240: Agreed to go for scan today. Letrozole + ribociclib. She still felt breathless the whole day. Couldn’t sleep the whole night again. I think she’s going to give it a try.
29 March 2023: Started on Letrozole and abemaciclib tonight. Biopsy confirmed hormone positive breast cancer.
2 April 2023: Im and I visited the Funeral Parlor to pay our last respect to Ina. We were told the following by various family members.
Before Ina went to the hospital for the biopsy and treatment she was still okay. She was in her shop giving instructions to her staff on what to do.
A targeted therapy cancer drug (either abemaciclib (Yulareb or Verzenios) or ribociclib (Kisqali). I am not able to confirm which drug was being used. Anyway, these are new drug that are not readily available in most hospitals in Malaysia. This is the second time I have heard of abemaciclib being used on breast cancer patients. The first time was from a Indonesian lady. She had many cycles of this drug in Jakarta. Unfortunately, the result was disappointing. As for ribociclib, this is the first time that I heard of this drug.
According to Ina’s husband Ina was given a cycle of these drugs (plus other pills) and that costs RM90,000 (ninety thousand ringgit). The family was also told that should Ina needed to be admitted in the ICU, it would cost the family at least RM5,000 per day.
Ina took the targeted therapy drugs:
Day 1, Ina took 1 pill.
Day 2, she took 2 pills.
Day 3, she took 1 pill.
Ina developed difficulties and she died early morning the next day, about an hour after the family had left the hospital for home.
Comments
Probably the first question anyone may want to ask is:Why did Ina die so fast? Three days after swallowing these scientifically proven drug, she was dead.
Can this be due to the following?:
Her breast cancer which she had been living with for the past 12 years without any problem suddenly turned aggressive and killed her within 3 days. Can this ever happen?
It is because of lung complications arising from her covid-19 infection.
It is because of the scientifically proven targeted chemo drugs that she took?
Oh, it is just her fate – just that her time is up.
I would not wish to give my comment on the above reasons. It is up to you readers to come to your own conclusion based on your belief. I cannot and would not want to change your belief system either. So be it.
By bringing up the above question, I am also not trying to ask you to find a scape goat either. The doctors did their best based on the knowledge that they had learned. All family members gave advices, rightly or wrongly, in the hope that what they said might help Ina.
To me, by sharing with you Ina’s story, is to highlight some lessons we can learn from Ina’s experience. Do you learn anything after reading her story?
Let me tell you what I learned. I thought, throughtout these 12 years, I have done my best to help Ina. But I must admit, upon reflecting on Ina’s case again, I would say I could have done better. I did not prescribe her the covid herbs that we have – especially the tea to deal with long covid symptoms. Yes, I gave Ina the lung herbs to help her with her lung problems but I wondered, could the covid herbs be better for her? To me, I believe the problem that Ina was facing was not breast cancer – she had been living with this for the past 12 years!. Yes, the lung has breast cancer cells but what mattered most was that her lungs needed help – she had severe breathlessness, lack of energy or strength, etc. Could these be caused by the covid infection she had earler – the monster referred to as long covid?
How long does fatigue last after COVID-19?Your recovery from COVID-related fatigue will likely depend on how severe your illness was. After a mild case of COVID-19 your fatigue may clear up after about 2-3 weeks. But if you had a severe case, it’s possible to feel sluggish and tired for months.
Ina “recovered” from her covid infection but her problems did not go away for many months. After recovering from covid, Ina took time off to visit South Korea. When she came home (according to her husband), she was still coughing.

COVID-19 can cause lasting lung damage.
What’s the link between coronavirus and lung cancer? COVID-19 disproportionately harms frail persons, including the elderly, and those with comorbid conditions, including cancer patients who are immunocompromised.
Some people with cancer are at increased risk of serious illness if they get COVID-19, because their immune systems have been weakened by the cancer and/or its treatments.
What happens if cancer patients get COVID? Studies show that having a history of cancer may also increase your risk of serious illness and death from COVID-19.
Why is COVID bad for your lungs?After a COVID infection, the immune system can inflict remote damage on other organs by triggering serious inflammation throughout the body – and this is in addition to damage the virus itself has directly inflicted on the lung tissue.
Is there a problem with lung after COVID? If COVID-19 pneumonia progresses, more of the air sacs can become filled with fluid leaking from the tiny blood vessels in the lungs. Eventually, shortness of breath sets in, and can lead to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a form of lung failure.
What organs are affected by COVID? The virus that causes COVID-19, can damage the lungs, heart, brain, kidneys, and blood vessels. Inflammation was first thought to be the main source of this damage.
Does Covid stay in your body forever? Scientists at the University of California San Francisco have discovered that remnants of the COVID-19 virus can linger in blood and tissue for more than a year after a person is first infected.
Does COVID weaken your immune system? In a small study supported by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), severe cases of COVID-19 were shown to cause long-lasting changes to the immune system.
What are long Covid lung symptoms?
Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath.
Cough.
Chest pain.
Fast-beating or pounding heart (also known as heart palpitations)
Trouble breathing.
Persistent pain or pressure in the chest.
Inability to wake or stay awake.
Death is Not a Failure
Many people often time believe that to die is a failure. This idea is notoriously perpetuated in medicine.
Dr. Robin Kelly (in Healing Ways) said: Fear of death is seen as a necessary part of modern medicine … This idea stems from a materialistic view about life.
Dr. Bernie Siegel wrote: I experienced being unhappy as a doctor. I was uncomfortable with the mechanical approach that we are taught in medical school. My success is measured by whether or not I saved your life. If I can’t save your life, I’m a failure. But now I don’t feel like a failure. I can help you live. After all you’re not going to live forever, no matter what I do.
Those who are spiritually orientated understand that life on earth is only transient and therefore view life and death in a different light. There is an Indian saying: When you are born, you cried and the world rejoiced. Live your life in such a manner that when you die, the world cries and you rejoice.
To me, this is the secret of how we can triumph and give meaning and beauty to our own death. We can leave this world with a sense of pride and dignity knowing that we have done our best to make it a slightly better place for those we leave behind.
I saw Ina lying in the coffin and was told that the white blouse that she wore was specially designed by her. I believe Ina was well prepared for this day. I am sorry I cannot make her live for the next “thirty years” but she had done 12 years very well. Being a business woman Ina had many customers who had cancer. They went through surgery, chemo, radiation, tamoxifen, etc. Many suffered from the treatment and some died.
I recall what Ina told me after she went to consult the oncologist for her problems. Ina said something to this effect: The doctor was surprised. He said: You have stage 4 cancer and you can walk into my office like a normal person! Generally, stage 4 patient come in a wheelchair looking very sick. You walk in like a healthy lady with no problem!
No, Ina’s death is not a failure.
Let me end with what Dr. Bernie Siegel wrote in Peace, Love & Healing:
It is important that we realize that we can never cure everything. We will never find … cure for all the diseases. Dying can be a healing, ending a full, rich life for someone who is tired and sore and in need of rest.
Rose, 62 years old, had been having heart problems for the past 3 years. She is currently on heart medication. About 2 years ago, Rose was not able to move her bowels for 5 days. She was admitted into a hospital in Medan. Indonesia.
A CT scan indicated a mass in the sigmoid colon and multiple adenopathy. A biopsy confirmed malignant metastatic adenocarcinoma.
Rose underwent an operation, the cancerous colon removed, and was fitted with a colostomy bag.
Histology report indicated: Low grade adenocarcinoma of colon-rectum.
After the surgery, Rose underwent the following treatments.
Chemotherapy
Oral drug with Intacape (or Xeloda)
Immunotherapy (with Avastin)
Radiotherapy
Rose had her chemo treatment in Medan. She received the following:
Cycle 1 – 29 Aug 2022: Oxaliplatin injection + Intacape.
According to the Kartu Kendali Kemoterapi (Chemotherapy Record Card), Rose received 5 more chemo injections from 13 November 2023 to 11 January 2024. The drugs used were:
Uracil
Iritero (or Irinocetan)
Leucovarin
Bevagen (or Avastin).
Since these treatments did not show improvement, Rose decided to come to Penang for further treatment.
A CT scan on 22 January 2024 done at a private hospital indicated:
Hypodense cystic lesion in right liver suspicious of post treatment changes, residual disease or tumour.
Herniation of bowel loops into left lumbar.
Previous rectosigmoid surgery with stoma seen in left lumbar region.
Rose underwent two cycles of chemotherapy in Penang, in January and February 2024. The drugs used were: Irinotecan and the oral drug, TS-1 (instead of Xeloda as in the previous treatment).
The cost of the first visit in January 2024 was RM4,917.55
The cost of the second visit in February 2024 was RM5,170.25
The following are 2 blood test results done on January and February 2024.
22 Jan 2024
21 Feb 2024

How did Rose get to know CA Care?
While in Penang, Rose and her daughter went to a pharmacy store to buy some medications. While in the shop, they met Jaya (not real name) and his wife. This couple is also from Indonesia. Jaya shared his cancer experience with them. Eventually, Jaya recommended that Rose come to seek our help!
Who is Jaya? He is our patient! Jaya was also diagnosed with colon cancer and underwent an operation in October 2014. After surgery, he received 2 cycles of chemotherapy with oxaliplatin + Leucovarin + 5-FU.
Jaya developed serious infection. He was rushed to Singapore and was hospitalised for 17 days. While in the hospital he remained unconscious for 3 days. The doctor had asked the family members to “get ready.” Fortunately, Jaya recovered from this ordeal.
Jaya refused further medical treatment – no more chemo! Jaya and his wife came to seek our help and was started on our herbs. He was told to take care of his diet. It has been almost 10 years and Jaya is very much alive and kicking! More of his story below:
Rose did what her doctors in Medan wanted her to do. She went through surgery and 11 + 5 cycles of chemotherapy. Did these treatments cure her? Unfortunately, NO. She ended up with a bald head, dark palms and feet.
What is more disappointing is that CT scan on 22 January 2024 showed there is a cystic lesion in her right liver. According to the report it could be due to post treatment changes, residual disease or tumour. Does this mean that the treatment causes metastasis to the liver?
No satisfied with the treatment in Medan, Rose came to Penang for more chemotherapy. Did the treatment help her? It is too early to say. After all, she had just received 2 cycles of chemo. But what is most baffling is that the chemo-drugs used were Irinotecan and TS-1.
Rose just had 5 cycles of Iritero – that is Irinotecan! In Penang she was given more of the same stuff. What is the whole idea? What can you expect from this treatment?
Rose was on Xeloda during her treatment in Medan. In Penang, she was given TS-1, another oral drug. Can TS-1 be better than the oral Xeloda? Agreed, currently the popularity of Xeloda is fading and TS-1 is starting to “shine” as of now.
This is an email from Linda (not her real name) received this morning: 1 March 2024 8:48 AM
Dear DR Chris,
Hi … How have you & wife been? It’s been almost 8 years since we last talk. First and foremost, the whole family would like to extend our greatest appreciation for your 5 Stars and tip top God-gifted abilities in dad’s NPC case.
The herbal decoction that was prescribed worked wonders. I remembered within a week of consumption, he’s able to slowly regained his strength & appetite. Believe it or not, he is still working till now! To which, I am glad to say that.
We have successfully achieved our main initial goal, that is “to live peacefully with his cancer.”
As of current, he is still facing the consequences of the side effects from the 13 sessions of radiotherapy that was done in 2017, i.e., weaken gum & loose tooth, hair thinning & he has not regained his sense of taste fully.
But thank God, from what I observe or physically see, there are no symptoms of an advancing cancer. He himself did not complaint of any discomfort, etc, which could be related to signs of an advancing cancer. I take it as good news.
In your opinion, do you think it is advisable to continue with the NPC 1 & NPC 2 or do you have any other ‘magic’ potions to recommend?
Again, thank you so much!! May God showers HIS countless blessings on you & family, and may HE bless you with happiness and rewards you for your kindness.
Thank you for your guidance & wisdom. As a Muslim, we believe in GOD’s plan, and meeting you is part of it.
Regards, Linda.
PS: Over the years and up till now, dad has been promoting your CA Care to his circle of clients & friends.
Within these 7 years, we met a number of our clients who are diagnosed with NPC just like dad. They completed the radio/chemotherapy treatment and within 1 year or so, without having a chance to fully recover from the side effects, they encountered a recurrence and sadly they succumbed to it. These experiences are really an eye opener. Wondering if the therapy kills the cancer first or the person receiving it?
May God bless us all with health & wealth. Looking forward to your reply.
The Story of Her Father
On Sat, Jun 10, 2017 at 3:00 AM, Linda wrote:
Dear DR Chris Teo,
I apologize for writing without the benefit of an introduction, I am writing this email, with the hope that I can schedule an appointment with you, on behalf of my father who has been diagnosed with nose cancer (T2N1).
My father, ABA, 58 years old, has been diagnosed with nose cancer (T2N1) in February 2017 and was scheduled for 33 sessions of radiotherapy and 6 rounds of chemotherapy (4 hrs of cisplatin IV infusion), with an approximate total cost of SGD$9,700.
He declined the chemotherapy treatment (oncologists here are very persistent, we had to go thru a series of ‘debates’) but complied to radiotherapy treatments.
We were initially ensured of a total recovery. Doctor mentioned that only 30% suffered from mild side effects and seeing my father is young he is confident that my father will be able to spring back to life in seconds.
Little did we know that radiotherapy is just as bad. He is currently on his 13th session. The tormenting days started as early as day 2. He is unable to eat – maybe because of the many big ulcers, sudden chills, fever, nausea/vomiting and scalded skin. He is so weak.
And ever since radiotherapy, I noticed he started to develop tight congestive cough at night. As of now, he said he had loss his sense of taste and hearing to his right ear.
On 6 June 2017, during a scheduled consultation, we expressed our concern on his deteriorating health, and if there is anything that they can provide to aid him during this time, and they mentioned a list of medications in which they don’t recommended. Their only advice is to allow his antibody to fight it off naturally.
At the end of the day, we were only prescribed with a tin of Ensure Vanilla powder. Disappointed with their lack of concerned and couldn’t help feeling betrayed, that was when we finally decided to called it off and stop the radiotherapy treatment.
It has been more than 48 hours from his last radiotherapy session and he doesn’t seem to be getting any better.
Our family do believe in herbs but we have no knowledge on it. We sincerely hope you are willing to look into my father case. My father is eager to take all possible aggressive measures to combat this disease or at least to live peacefully with it.
We understand that this is one of many such requests that come across your desk and greatly appreciate any guidance that you can give. We lived in Singapore.
Thank you, in advance, for your help. I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience.
Our Therapy Helped Him
On Wednesday, July 12, 2017, 3:47 AM.
Hi Dr Chris,
Hope all is well. The whole family would like to extend our greatest appreciation for your help, advices and herbs. Just like the pastor (link below), he is now strong enough to walk and work!
The swell on his right lymph node have totally disappeared.
Although his sense of taste has not recovered fully, but he’s eating now. Ulcers gone!
Phlegm/mucus isn’t that thick anymore.
No more congested cough throughout night. Amazing!
Initially we had to bring the tea to him, now he will be the one asking for it!
During this Chinese New Year 2024 – the year of the Dragon! – I had the opportunity to read two books The Red Light Therapy and The Cancer Industry – Crimes, Conspiracy and the Death of My Mother. Both of them were written by Mark Sloan of Ontario, Canada.
Mark’s mother had cervical cancer. She died after surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Mark wrote:
(This) happened when I was 12 years old. My father called a family meeting in the living room and sat my sister and I down on the couch. We had no idea what he was about to tell us but he looked upset … and I knew at that moment something was terribly wrong.
Dad told us that our mom had cancer.
Doctors found a cancerous lesion on her cervix about the size of a baby fingernail. Dad told us they had detected it early and were going to rush her in for surgery followed by radiotherapy to ensure the cancer wouldn’t return. He assured us that treating her quickly would give her the best chance of survival, and we’ve got the best doctors in Canada working on her.
After surgery and radiotherapy …
Six difficult months passed … back into the hospital for re-assessment. The cancer had spread to her hip area and they wanted to do chemotherapy.
The dramatic decline in her health immediately following chemotherapy was disturbing. Within days of her first treatment, her legs swelled up so badly that she could no longer walk. The poison injected into her veins reduced her jaw muscles to scar tissue so she could barely open her mouth to talk. Chewing food was out of the question so she was reduced to a liquid diet and we began bringing her smoothies.
My mom was able to return home shortly after chemotherapy treatments but her return wasn’t at all glorious like I had imagined. I remember laying in bed late at night and hearing her downstairs crying in excruciating pain. My mother went from looking like a healthy middle-aged woman to something approximating a prisoner of war who had been captured and tortured by the enemy.
The confusion began to set in and then quickly turned to anger: Why was my mother in pain? I thought we had some of the best doctors working on her giving her the best treatments available. She was supposed to get healthy but the treatments have made her worse!!!
A couple months later…
When I got downstairs, Dad was a mess; unable to hold back his tears and struggling to speak.
Dad told us that our mom was gone.
Time to Ponder and Ask Questions
Cancer – surgery, radiotherapy and / or chemotherapy, etc. The patient died. Does this happen often to cancer patients? Unfortunately, the answer could be yes or most likely.
For the following questions, I shall not answer the questions posed but rather quote what Mark Sloan wrote in his books.
2. Can medical treatments cure cancer? This is what Mark wrote (pg. 44) in the Red Light Therapy:
It’s been almost 50 years since the war on cancer has been declared and yet more people are diagnosed and dying of the disease than ever before.
If you give somebody 50 years and around $500 billion dollars in research money to find a cure for cancer and they literally come up with nothing, what do you do? You fire them and find a new approach.
Yes. Many people are being fed with the propaganda that cure is just around the corner! Really?
3. Why can’t they find a cure?
Mark wrote on page 45 of his book:
An industry that makes $126 billion dollars a year will never give us answers, if these answers would mean putting itself out of business.
It is up to us as individuals to understand what cancer is, and the most efficient ways to remedy it.
4. What can be the reality of today’s medical treatments for cancer?
Mark wrote on page 45/46
We’ve all seen at least somebody in our lives undergo surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy and then come out far worse than before. I saw it happen to my mother when I was 12 years old. As soon as she received chemotherapy, it was like she got hit by a truck. Instead of recovery, she died a few months later, and every moment from chemotherapy to death was spent in agony.
It is common sense that cutting a sick person with a knife, injecting poison into their bodies, and burning them with ionizing radiation will make their health worse.
It is time to learn from history and take action instead of ignoring it.
5. After much reading, did Mark learn anything?
In his book The Cancer Industry – Crimes, Conspiracy and the Death of My Mother (page 107), this is what he said:
When human being is sick with cancer, they deserve the absolute safest and most effective medicines known.
Yet in this world, cancer patients are routinely rushed into oncology centers where doctors sentence them to death using treatments that make industrial animal slaughterhouse look humane.
My mother didn’t die of cancer. She was murdered-for-profit by an industry that cares more about making money than saving lives.
