    You Too Can Survive Cancer

    About this ebook

    God gave you life to have a life. You took a body to have a life. My idea is to give you a positive pep talk so you will realize the importance of maintaining a positive attitude while dealing with cancer. It is very important not to let yourself get stressed out. On the internet, you can find many articles describing the negative effects of stress on the body. There are many people, doctors and others, who will tell you things to try to cheer you up. Sometimes their articles remind me of people without children, who have no responsibility for the health of their own children, saying that children should not be vaccinated. People who do not have cancer, do not understand what it can be like, emotionally and mentally, to realize that you have a disease that can kill you. Cancer can make you feel helpless, but I want to tell you, as someone who has cancer, stage four prostate cancer, metastasized to my bones, that there is something you can do about it.
    This book is not a rant against the medical profession and the current state of medical profiteering from cancer. It is a rant about personal responsibility and using the current state of medical knowledge and diet and everything else you can to survive cancer. It is my observation that people who want to survive will see their doctor when they notice something wrong and will do what they can to change their diet and add nutritional supplements to get their bodies back on a survival path. People who ignore symptoms and just assume they will go away, end up having all their current body problems go away, along with their bodies.
    First, realize that you are a non-mortal, spiritual being, who has a body. You are not your body. This is important, to introduce some separation between you and your body. Not too much, mind you. I want to help you keep your body going. Now consider the reasons you might want a body. In my own case, when I had a Near Death Experience, the message from God was that I had taken a body to have a life. How about you? What reason did you have for taking a body? Did you accomplish all you set out to do? Have you shown those you love that you love them? Perhaps you have more to do.
    Second, realize that while your body has a life of its own, it needs you to direct it. Bodies evolved being directed by spirits. You have a job to do.
    Third, realize that there are actual physical things we can do to fight the conditions that caused our cancer. I will go over them more extensively later in this book, but the most important are: cut out sugars from your diet - sugar feeds cancer and fructose stimulates cancer cells to divide; reduce your intake of mammal flesh - it contains a sugar, Neu5Gc, not found in humans and so our immune system attacks it, causing inflammation; breathe deeply, as often as possible – oxygen deprivation from inflammation is one of the main causes of cancer. Breathing deeply and slowly is also very calming.

      About the Author

      Foreword

      This book is not a medical report. I am not a doctor, medical or otherwise. I am a cancer survivor (touch wood, cross fingers, utter prayer that my survivor status continues). This book is a report of the things I learned because I had cancer.

      The Greeks recognized the three aspects of life: spirit, mind and body. In my observation, all three aspects are involved in creating, having, controlling and being free from cancer, in that order of importance: spirit, mind and body.

      When I started this book. I was chronicling the ups and downs of my prostate cancer as shown by my Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) test results. I was initially more concerned about the physical, my diet and supplements, than the spiritual. However, I have discovered that the spiritual and mental are vastly more important than the physical. Without the spiritual and mental, none of the physical solutions continued to work for me. The physical solutions seem very simple. It is the mental and spiritual that require discipline.

      My Experience

      Once upon a time, I was faced with cancer spreading through my body. I was disabled by back problems. The prostate and bladder surgery that had allowed me to pee freely had also disrupted the delicate abdominal and lower back muscular balance that had allowed me to
