THE CURE FOR ALL ADVANCED CANCERS
scary later. Besides, her son had been spelled by her daughter who had been
too busy to read the literature that explained our treatments. She was impa-
tient for her mother to come home. No amount of transfusion can keep up
with a hemorrhage. [We had not yet learned the usefulness of the Chinese
herb, Yunnan paiyao. We only knew about the anti-hemorrhaging action of
cayenne pepper which we had already used extensively.]
Besides cayenne capsules, we started her on lung tea. It had two ingredi-
ents, comfrey and mullein. She cooked them herself and was to drink 2 cups
a day. She was to eat a small clove of garlic daily, raw, with a bit of bread,
also for lung improvement.
Her liver tumors now took second priority. The right lobe showed much
better texture, the former tumor outlines weakly discernible. The left tumor,
6.3 x 4.8 cm was still trying to divide across the middle.
In four days, she was feeling better. Her shoulder pain was gone, simply
gone. The lung tumor must have pulled free—and without hemorrhaging!
Extraordinary good fortune! A fresh X-ray showed the lung tumor smaller
and with barely discernible borders.
By March 14, she was walking quite well by herself. She could speak of
nothing but going home. We begged, in vain, for her son to return for her last
few weeks. He understood the vagaries of her situation. She was finally on
more solid ground with her recovery. It was premature to stop overseeing
developments in her path to health. We ordered a last blood test, ultrasound
of liver, and X-ray of lung. The lung tumor was gone...completely gone. The
left liver tumor had pulled apart, leaving two small pieces, one 3.2 cm in
diameter, the other about 2.5 cm. The right liver tumors were reduced to a
few fragments also. The texture was good. But the blood test still had its
warning signs. The RBC at 3.18 was lower than ever. An RBC of 3.0 is the
cut off point, where we give a transfusion. Was she still bleeding? Platelet
count was 431, suggesting she was.
The liver function tests were greatly improved. The liver could make al-
bumin again, raising it to 3.7. The calcium was normal, but the iron level was
lower than ever; had her copper water pipes been changed at home? Perhaps
being home would get her away from the chronic copper burden she was
picking up here. Maybe leaving prematurely would not be all bad.
She was instructed to do a blood test every week until the RBC was on
its way up. Otherwise, to get a transfusion without delay. She promised to
send follow-up ultrasounds and blood tests. Then they grabbed their X-rays
and dashed to the airport. And we chalked up another successful failure.
Success in clearing up the cancer and shrinking the tumors. Failure to com-
pletely restore her health.
Summary: A glance at first and last blood tests shows her remarkable
improvement. But if it is obtained by means of IVs that merely “catch up”
with a toxicity problem, temporarily, it is not a good solution. Better ways
had to be found, so we searched on.
