“Oncology is a racket.”
My mom had colon cancer and chose to just have it cut out along with an ostomy. She went to an oncologist who encouraged further treatment with chemo. As a nurse who had seen too many severely debilitated by the treatment, she decided she wasn’t going to spend her remaining time miserable from chemo. I think the oncologist was amazed when she lived another 3 years past the surgery. She only spent her last 10 days out of her house at a nursing home in that entire time.
I am sorry for your loss. Cancer is a racket and I feel for those who have it and for the families who have to watch this disease take control.
I feel even worse when the medical profession attempts to sell you a certain treatment which in the end, does not work and does more harm than good.
My mother had breast cancer. She told them to just take the whole breast as opposed to the lumpectomy. So they did. Then the oncologist wanted her to take chemo, radiation, and two medications whose #1 side effect was heart issues (a better than 50% risk!)
My mom did her research and learned about the oncolgy racket. She turned down all post operation treatment and changed her habits. She read a book on cancer fighting superfoods and started eating better, exercising and so forth. She is still doing well three years later.
She also prayed alot during that time about and felt God strongly leading her against all that poison. So to God be the glory!
I know there cases where its so bad, chemo is the last hope. But it seems nowadays they dole out chemo for all cancer cases, even when its early and operable. I really feel people are going through more than they have too.
