No. I know people who work on cancer and have seen clinical presentations by MSs on it. They take out certain immune cells, train them to look for the patient’s own cancer cells, then inject a truckload of them back into the patient. Like giving a bloodhound an article of clothing to sniff...

Would you stake your LIFE on that research? Would YOU travel to India for treatment if you needed it?

Trust MY life to a bunch of Indian doctors when I have the entire USA to turn to? NO THANKS.
If YOU would, then you're a better man than I am, Gunga Din.

It started in the US, and is done (as it were) by hand.
India is just trying to bring the costs down.

It has cured stage 4 cancer patients days away from death.

===============================

I don't believe it.
If it were REALLY true it would be EARTH-SHATTERING news and the entire planet Earth would know about it. Every sick person in the world would be BEATING DOWN THE DOORS to get to India. You don't name any clinics or scientific institutions associated with the government, national or state.

But, the news of the world doesn't mention A SINGLE WORD about these cures of stage 4 cancer.
So, it's all baloney.
India is famous for that. I know; I've been there. I also worked with a TON of Indians when we lived in Saudi Arabia for five YEARS.

Now Lourdes, France, has been a "curing" spot for quite a while.

Google: A total of 67 miraculous healings have been recognised at Lourdes since 1858, when a 14-year-old peasant girl claimed that she had seen the Virgin Mary in a cave. However, there have only been four miracles since 1978, the most recent last year when an Italian woman was said to have been healed of acute rheumatism. Apr 1, 2006

It costs about $600,000/person. That's why they're trying to automate it! 😉

If someone has that much to spend he's got it made in the shade.

Lol. Then you will deserve all that happens.

I lived and worked in Mexico City for two years. I thought that Mexico was the filthiest place in the world.

Then we lived in the Middle East [K.S.A.] for five YEARS. Then I thought that the Middle East was the filthiest place in the world.

Eventually we traveled to India and stayed there almost a month. Then I thought that India was filthiest place in the world until we visited China. And, mind you, in both India and China we stayed at the BEST places they had.
***When we were in China my husband had to stand in the bathroom while I was taking a shower to keep the ARMIES of cockroaches away from me.

Then, after all our travels we flew home and landed in LAX. When I got off the plane and walked on the linoleum towards the terminal I got down on my HANDS AND KNEES and kissed the linoleum...I was SO glad to be home for good!

I DON'T BELIEVE IN THOSE INDIAN CURES FOR STAGE 4 LUNG CANCER because THERE IS NO CURE FOR STAGE 4 LUNG CANCER.
Stage 4 means that both lungs have been CONSUMED by the cancer. That means NO AIR can get to the lungs/brain. DEATH IS IMINENT. I know what it looks like because my husband died from it. But you would risk you life going to India and being treated for the UNTREATABLE stage 4 cancer. You're a better man than I am, Gunda Din.

One good thing about that: when you kick the bucket over there AND YOU WILL, they cremate bodies. You can then bring home the ashes in a nice, smallish container. EASY-PEASY. No bulky coffin to worry about.

It seems that I (unfortunately) know a lot more about blood cancers & their treatment than you do.

First, “stage 4” cancer does not necessarily involve the lungs. That’s especially the case for blood cancers, where “Stage 4” doesn’t mean the same thing as it does for solid cancers.

You also seem to be completely unaware that “medical tourism” has become big international business. While India, Brazil, Mexico, Malasia, etc. may not relatively backward; their medical tourism facilities are state-of-the-art, and staffed by fully-qualified medical professionals. They have to be, to attract their clientele. The facilities are for the well-heeled foreigner, not the local peasantry.

If my choices were between receiving a treatment in India and not receiving one in N. America (because it’s way too expensive) — then, I’d pick treatment in India (or any other country with advanced medical tourism services) in a heartbeat. The treatment comes with some risks — the non-treatment comes with a certain death sentence. It’s really a no-brainer.

Well, it REALLY is true and it was EARTH-SHATTERING. Just because you missed it doesn't mean it didn't happen :) But cancer is not one disease; it's a family of diseases (hundreds of types and sub types) and there is no one single treatment for all cancers. CAR-T only works for blood cancers and only a specific type (those affecting B cells).

It all began with Emily Whitehead (Google Emily Whitehead).. followed by Doug Olson .

I will try to be clearer.
My husband died of STAGE 4 LUNG CANCER. He had already lost one lung, FROM LUNG CANCER, but when his good lung failed ... his life ended...FROM LUNG CANCER.

Got it now?
