Author: AnnYes, that's me a survivor, a cancer survivor. I think that in many ways we are all survivors of one sort or another. We have all gone through our own trials and tribulations in our lives. It is my hope that this "journey" may help those who have been diagnosed with, are going through, or finished their cancer treatments. It is also my hope that the families of those diagnosed can gain a little insight, from my perspective, of what we go through. So here's my journey, the bearing of my soul, the good, the bad and the ugly...and yes there was good that came out of this journey. During the spring of 2008, I had gained some weight as we all do over the winter. I began walking, 2 1/2 miles in the morning and a mile at night and doing quite well. I was very dedicated and determined to lose about 25 pounds.

There are many facts you wont be told about cancer because the less you know about it the easier it will be to manipulate you into to their system of toxic treatments. A patient whos ignorant of these facts will blindly follow authority without stopping and applying a bit of common sense because of the trust we have in our doctors and our medical system.When someone is diagnosed with cancer what does western medicine offer us today, aggressive surgery, toxic chemicals and nuclear radiation which all destroy our immune system? Our orthodox system treats cancer as if its caused by something outside the body, where as cancer is caused because something has gone wrong inside the body. Cancer is not an invader from outer space and your parents certainly didnt give you faulty genes to cause it. Cancer is a self-made disease. If someones been diagnosed with cancer, we know with certainty their defence mechanism, which is the immune system, had been weakened and didnt destroy mutant cancer cells when they appeared. Cancer doesnt just happen, it is the result of something you did, the body had been weakened by modern living, and so doesnt it make sense that it can be corrected too. We are...more
