My father is 64 yo, has stage 4 colon
cancer, tumor spread in lungs, liver and
bones.
He was diagnosed and had surgery 20 months
ago, he has now a ileostomy and a
colostomy. (2 bags attached on his body).
He is in a trial for Avastin which seems
to work at keeping the tumors from
growing. He had complications due to
tumors, was close to death 3 times so far
(tumor blocked the biliar bladder duct and
the bile was accumulating in the body).
He also drinks ESSIAC which is a herbal
tea, just google it and you'll find more
information. We have decided to try
everything, Avastin and the herbal tea.
Search on the internet for the ingredients
list and proportions and try to prepare it
yourself, it will be much more
affordable.
For the tumors in his liver he drinks 2
glasses a day of a tea from a plant called
Lycopodium clavatum.

Sorry to hear that your father is having
very severe disease. I guess your doing
everything right to help him.
You've mention that he had some
complications due the cancer, but are you
aware that avastin can cause some serious
life-threatening
complications(gastrointestinal
perforation, kidney malfunction , severe
hypertension)
Thank you for sharing your experience.
Your informations will be helpful for
everyone here.
All best to you and your family.

Avastin Posted: 08-29-07 13:00pm
We are aware of the potentially dangerous
side effects of Avastin but my father is
ok so far.
He takes it since Feb 2006 and as far as
his bi-annual CAT scans show Avastin works
at keeping the liver, lung and bone tumors
from growing.
The only side effect was a runny nose,
like in a mild cold, which is nothing
compared to the chemo side effects. Chemo
was making him feel so bad that he only
completed 4 sessions out of 6 planned
after the surgery.

Colon Cancer Alternative Cure? Posted: 09-12-07 13:17pm
My friend from philippines just email me
some info regarding cure on colon cancer
and I was very interested and wanted to
buy the tea to drink for cleansing.
Dr Tam is a crusader for cancer for over a
decade and his patient came from all part
of philippine province. My friend is shock
and amazed and see with his own eyes how
so many people was healed just by drinking
the miracle tea and live green alone.
I am trying to share my own mom's cancer
cure, it was 3 and half years ago when the
doctor told us that she had 4th stage
cancer... Now shes free and goes for
regular checkup every nine months etc. I
now believe in drinking lots of fruits and
vegetable juices (beetroot, green apple,
carrot mainly for my mom), and other veges
etc. Find out how beetroot is such a
blood cleanser(search the internet you
should know). My mom had terribly skin
outburst(it smells) after that and slowly
rashes gone after 1 week).
There is hope for many of us, just that we
must want to open our minds to learn and
find out with an open mind. Well, lots of
fruit & vegs will never make us sick,
remember? You must drink lots of juices to
eliminate any toxins from your body at the
moment. How can we depend on the doctors
alone? when food is our strength and cure.
