But after multiple surgeries and radiation treatment, Terry would discover that he hadn't even begun to deal with what would become his greatest struggle for years to come -- the disfigurement that resulted from it.

Cancer-Free by Ann Fawcett,Cynthia Smith,East West Foundation Pdf

Today, it is common knowledge that diet can play a significant role in preventing cancer. Numerous medical studies linking the modern high-fat, high-cholesterol diet with breast, colon, prostate, ovarian, and other forms of cancer have provided scientific support to the macrobiotic approach taught for the last thirty years by Michio Kushi and his associates. In Cancer-Free, the East West Foundation with journalists Ann Fawcett and Cynthia Smith presents further evidence that a naturally balanced macrobiotic diet can dramatically and positively influence the outcome of already existing cancers. This book contains personal accounts of thirty people from many walks of life--including housewives, business executives, a medical doctor, a registered nurse, an autoworker, a retired airline pilot, a stockbroker, a United Nations senior administrator--who recovered from a wide range of cancers, including breast cancer, colon cancer, stomach cancer, pancreatic cancer, lung cancer, ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, prostate cancer, bone cancer, brain tumor, malignant melanoma, leukemia, and Hodgkin's disease. Besides personal narratives, Cancer-Free includes several medically documented cases of terminal cancer remission compiled by Vivien Newbold, M.D., a physician practicing in Philadelphia. This breakthrough study is a must for everyone with an interest in safe, effective natural approaches to health.

As medical director of the Block Center for Integrative Cancer Treatment in Evanston, Illinois, he has treated thousands of patients who have lived long, full lives beyond their original prognoses. Now he has distilled almost thirty years of experience into the first book that gives patients a systematic, research-based plan for developing the physical and emotional vitality they need to meet the demands of treatment and recovery.

Swimming Upstream by Sajjad Iqbal,Sajjad Iqbal M D Pdf

As an experienced pediatrician, Sajjad Iqbal, MD, had long enjoyed using his medical expertise to treat children's illnesses and alleviate their parents' concerns. Suddenly, however, he was on the other side of the divide. As Iqbal began to battle severe facial paralysis, misguided and obstinate doctors became an obstacle to finding a correct diagnosis and treatment. Iqbal's doctors believed that he had Bell's palsy, a temporary, benign condition. But Iqbal rejected that theory. He knew enough about medicine and his own body to suspect a far more deadly cause-cancer of the parotid (salivary) glands. Initially, Iqbal couldn't convince the so-called experts to listen and his doctors rushed forward with a flawed treatment plan including unnecessary surgery. Given a 30 percent chance of living two years-he has survived 15 years, overcoming repeated recurrences of cancer by charting his own course of treatment. In this extraordinary memoir, Iqbal recounts how he advocated for his health and relentlessly fought for a correct diagnosis. As he reveals how he unraveled this medical mystery, facing repeated setbacks, you will be inspired to take charge of your own healthcare. Iqbal's experiences convincingly show the importance of speaking up and pushing back against medical professionals' apathy and arrogance.

New Beginnings by Bill Aron Pdf

100 Inspirational Stories and Beautiful, Uplifting Photos of Survivors. “You have cancer” are three of the most terrifying words a person can hear, and our culture does little to ease the fear. New Beginnings: 100 Cancer Survivors follows one hundred survivors who discovered that those words were the start of a new beginning, not an end to their lives. New Beginnings is a collection of narratives and energetic photographic portraits of men, women, children, and families that inspire and provide hope for anyone diagnosed with cancer as well as for their families and friends. The survivors vary in age, ethnicity, and diagnosis, but they all share the ability to turn a diagnosis of cancer into a positive force in their lives. Coming from all walks of life, survivors include Sally Craigen, who beat two different cancers three decades apart but who never let it stop her from enjoying life; Rabbi William Cutter, who had already survived three heart attacks by the time he faced down prostate cancer on two occasions; Sophia Colby, diagnosed with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis at fifteen months of age, who has survived more in her ten years than many people do in their entire lives; and professional basketball player Coby Karl, who hasn’t let two bouts from thyroid cancer stop him from chasing his dreams; and ninety-six others. This is a project by and for cancer survivors: their words, Bill Aron's photographs, in collaboration with their ideas and sensibilities. This is their book.
