Emily Robinson93 said:Just ask yourselves: how many times have you actually seen modern medicine successfully cure cancer? My personal take is that we should be considering every single method out there, provided they aren't dangerous—which, let's face it, chemo certainly isn't.

I personally know quite a few cases where modern medicine actually SUCCEEDED in curing, or at least managing and controlling, cancer, which in turn allows for a much better quality of life. If anyone wants proof, I am more than happy to provide names and phone numbers to back up my claim.

Tell me, then—how many people do you actually know who have been cured, or even just stabilized, using the specific methods you're describing? If you're so confident, I'll gladly take a list of names and contact numbers so I can reach out to them myself!

Emily Robinson93 said:Just ask yourselves how many cases you actually know where medicine successfully cured cancer?! My personal take is that any method that doesn't carry risks (which chemo definitely does) should be kept on the table.

Look, Emily Robinson93, maybe you should ask yourself how much sense it makes—not to mention how incredibly bold—to even pose a question like that.
For God's sake, medicine is a science, and science isn't some shallow, half-baked hobby. Medicine operates strictly on rigorous scientific research, conducted by actual scientists—highly trained professionals. Can you even begin to grasp the sheer complexity and competence required for this field?! Honestly, I can't wrap my head around how someone can be so superficial in their thinking, acting as if cancer is some disease that can just be brushed off with "tried and true" home remedies. 😕
Seriously people, have you all lost your minds? What is wrong with you?! 😱 What exactly are you trying to sell here?! Intelligence to the sick?! Just because someone has cancer doesn't mean they're mentally incompetent! They might be terrified and overwhelmed, but that’s why we’re here—to provide support through sober, rational thinking.
So do us all a favor and get lost with this topic and your "tested" methods!!!

I’m asking the moderators to please clear out these kinds of insane, idiotic discussions from people who clearly don't even understand what cancer is, let alone the different types, yet think they can "help" those suffering.

And finally, I’m going to be fundamentally nasty and malicious toward you all for the first time—and I'll gladly take the ban for it—because I truly cannot read this nonsense anymore 🙂, so let me tell you this:

To all of you dear, sweet souls who claim to know the root cause and the cure for cancer: in the very near future, the fate of Americans is such that every third person will fall victim to some type of malignancy. So go ahead, count yourselves up and do the math, and you'll realize you're part of those statistics too. Well, when you're the one facing cancer, then come back and try selling your "proven" methods here after you've used them to cure yourself. ☕

Fine, no problem. I'll just pack up and leave this forum then. I'm sorry I upset you all.

Wow, you really put me on the defensive there, Emily Robinson93—what am I supposed to believe, that I can just cure my mother’s glioblastoma with a box of baking soda??? 🙄 And as for Candida, honestly, I struggle with that quite often myself, and I’ve had pretty great success managing it by ramping up my intake of acidophilus👍 (

COULD A COMMON TYPE OF FUNGUS BE THE CAUSE OF CANCER?
By Dr. Tullio Simoncini

According to this hypothesis, cancer is caused by an infection from a very common fungus known as Candida albicans. The silver lining is that it might be treatable with a potent antifungal agent—one that is unfortunately impossible to patent...

Chemotherapy and radiation therapy tend to produce almost exclusively negative outcomes, due both to their specific ineffectiveness and their high level of toxicity to healthy tissue, which ultimately only serves to encourage fungal aggression...

Candida shows an extreme sensitivity to sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3, or baking soda), which aligns with the fact that Candida thrives when reproducing in acidic environments (meaning, one must reduce the body's acidity)...
http://www.curenaturalicancro.com/

The most effective way to attempt to eliminate a tumor is to bring it into direct contact with sodium bicarbonate as closely as possible—specifically through oral administration for the digestive tract, enemas for the rectum, washes for the vagina and uterus, intravenous injections for the lungs and brain, and inhalation for the upper respiratory tract...
A full cycle consists of six days of treatment followed by six days of rest, to be repeated four times. The primary side effects of this regimen are thirst and malaise. For skin cancer, a 7% iodine tincture should be applied to the affected area once daily for 20 to 30 days, with the goal of creating multiple layers of scabbing. This procedure may also be applied to the treatment of psoriasis...

One must ask oneself: how many cases do you actually know where mainstream medicine successfully cured cancer? My personal view is that any method that is safe—which certainly isn't the case with chemo—should be taken into consideration...

Cancer is NOT a universal disease that follows a single recipe, and sadly, there cannot be just one single source for the illness...

In my own four-member family, I can count three people who have successfully recovered or are currently undergoing successful treatment, and they did so using strictly medical preparations. My father has lived for over 30 years now, never once turning to alternative methods. My grandmother survived two different types of cancer and continues her fight. When you ask my mother how she managed it when things looked impossible, she will simply tell you: "I just followed the doctor's orders..."

Alternative methods should certainly be considered, but that doesn't mean they are miraculous...

Alright everyone, sorry, I’m going to pivot away from the weekend discussions for a second...

Ever since my sister was reading Blaise's post over the phone on Friday night just to give us all a good laugh, I've been waiting for Monday to check back in (yeah, yeah, I'm stuck without internet at home because of AT&T, so I'm just waiting for the next provider to show up on my street).

So, as of Friday, my mom and I are officially roommates.
Even though we just moved from one neighborhood in the city to another, Mom acts like she just relocated to rural Memphis... or maybe Afghanistan... depending on how you look at it!
When she watches the news and sees men carrying weapons, she turns to me and asks if there’s any "unrest happening around here" too...😲

She stares out the window and tells me she really thought being on the 4th floor would give her a better view of the Mississippi River.

I even got a compliment because she thinks the choir and orchestra playing in my living room is way better than what she had back in her day, since some program called "my player" or whatever was on TV...🤣

We’re slowly learning her specific language and her weird way of making associations; sometimes I catch myself having an "aha moment" after a few hours because I finally realize what she actually meant by some nonsensical thing she just blurted out.

And honestly, no matter how heavy and serious things get, my sister and I ended up laughing so hard with Mom several times this weekend.

I want to say to anyone who is sick, or whose loved ones are sick, but still has their wits about them: be happy about that. I don't mean to diminish anyone's pain, but this combination of physical and mental decline is truly one of the worst things a person can go through.

On the flip side, with almost every type of cancer, you deal with the physical pain and the crushing awareness of the diagnosis, the bad prognosis, and the weight of the situation—but that isn't the case with Mom, so sometimes I think maybe it's actually better this way.🤷

I stumbled upon a great old post by Angela Wright. Thanks again for the advice; everything you said is spot on.

Angela Wright said:I know that feeling of helplessness, constantly asking yourself if you did everything you could. I think the best thing is to just be who you've always been and try to keep daily life as normal as possible, as much as you can. Treat the illness or the treatment like a chore you just have to get done, and never, ever show despair or tears to the disease itself. When you truly feel weak, go into the bathroom, turn on the shower, grab a pillow, and scream into it. Screaming used to release me. Afterward, I’d feel peaceful and just lighter inside.

Hey to all the fighters and their families out there,

Today marks exactly 18 months since my wife received her diagnosis. Thank God, she’s still been able to be her completely normal self through all of this. I haven't noticed anything unusual. We’re staying optimistic and refusing to let ourselves get weighed down by worrying about the future—a future that, between the two of us, I know will eventually arrive.
I want to thank everyone who provides us with the motivation to keep fighting and the practical advice needed to deal with this illness.

Best wishes to everyone. Just keep pushing forward.

IS A COMMON TYPE OF FUNGUS THE CAUSE OF CANCER?
By Dr. Tullio Simoncini

According to this hypothesis, cancer is caused by an infection from a common fungus called Candida albicans. The silver lining is that it might be treatable with strong antimycotics—substances that, crucially, cannot be patented.

Chemotherapy and radiation therapy yield almost exclusively negative results—not just because they are fundamentally ineffective, but because their high toxicity destroys healthy tissue, which ultimately plays right into the hands of the aggressive fungus.

Candida shows an extreme sensitivity to sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3, or baking soda); this aligns with the fact that Candida thrives and multiplies in acidic environments (meaning we need to reduce the body's acidity).
http://www.curenaturalicancro.com/

The most effective way to attempt to eliminate a tumor is to bring it into direct contact with sodium bicarbonate—as closely as possible—via oral administration for the digestive tract, enemas for the rectum, douches for the vagina and uterus, intravenous injections for the lungs and brain, and inhalation for the upper respiratory tract.
A full cycle consists of six days of treatment followed by six days of rest, to be repeated four times. The primary side effects of this regimen are thirst and malaise. For skin cancer, a 7% iodine tincture should be applied to the affected area once daily for 20–30 days, aiming to create multi-layered scabs. This procedure could also potentially be used for treating psoriasis.

Ask yourselves: how many cases do you actually know where mainstream medicine cured cancer?! My personal view is that any method that doesn't carry significant risks (which, let's face it, chemo certainly does) should be taken into consideration.

Kudos to you, Emily Robinson93! What she’s laid out here is largely accurate, and look—no matter how desperate things feel in the situations you find yourselves in, you don't necessarily have to see every attempt at help from someone who hasn't walked in your shoes as something malicious or dismissive.
Usually, people who are trying to shake things up or change the status quo might not have the most polished communication style, but that doesn't diminish their actual desire to help.
And remember... none of us "insensitive" types would even be standing here if we didn't deeply care about helping.

Look, I’ve already mentioned this—I had the very early stages of carcinoma, and this specific preparation really helped me through it. I’m going to list the ingredients for you here, along with where you can pick it up and some links if you want to do your own research online.
Ingredients: - stabilized oxygen (you can find Oxymax under that name here in the States via the Calivita website; it runs about $83)
- vinegar (pure stuff—not apple cider or wine vinegar)
- fresh-squeezed apple or orange juice
- you can sweeten it with those little glucose tablets they give you when you donate blood (I can't recall the exact name)

For a deep dive into how to make it: check out the latest issue of NEXUS magazine from February/March
www.miraclemineral.org (this site lays out the specific protocols for various ailments, including carcinoma)
www.foodreserves.com/stabilizedoxygen.html (this one covers the properties of stabilized oxygen and includes testimonials from people who have tried it)

There isn't really anything to lose since there aren't any side effects, and it works incredibly fast to get your immunity back up to speed.
That’s all I have to say. If you have questions, please just send me a private message. Thanks.

They might be exhausted and terrified, sure, but that’s why we’re here—to provide support through sober, rational thought.
For heaven's sake, just shut up already with this thread and your "tested" methods!!!

I am asking the moderators to please spare us from more of these insane, moronic discussions from individuals who don't even have a basic grasp of what cancer is—let alone the different types—yet they have the nerve to claim they want to "help" those suffering.

And finally, I am going to be fundamentally malicious and spiteful toward you all for the first time—I'll even take a ban if it means I don't have to read this anymore🙂—so let me tell you this:

Well, once you've actually been hit by cancer, then feel free to come back here and sell your "proven" methods after you've successfully healed yourself with them.☕

My dear, I have personally faced my own cancer and overcome it, yet you are still drowning in your own desperation. If anyone is being rude here, it is you—though clearly, you are too blind to see it.

Sandra Martin60 said:Honey, I’ve dealt with cancer myself and come out the other side, yet here you are, still drowning in your own desperation. If anyone is being rude in this thread, it's you—though clearly, you're too blind to see it.

Look, I buried my mother just four months ago (which should give you a hint about how little you actually bothered to read this thread or understand the people coming here seeking 🥳help and support🙂), and since then, I’ve founded an association dedicated to providing tangible aid to patients (something you could have learned if you’d spent five minutes reading the last few pages). I’m not here to spout nonsense or mess with the lives of cancer patients and their families who have fought through hell and back just to find something proven and practical that might actually help them. I won't insult the intelligence of young people who have no clue what they're talking about just because you’ve decided, based on nothing, that baking soda is a miracle cure for every single type of cancer.
We can talk about things that boost the immune system or help someone stabilize while undergoing the only legitimate, proven, and verified treatment that delivers actual results: modern medicine. But you cannot come in here and peddle these vague delusions as if they are cures. You need more than just your personal anecdote about how you beat cancer to claim something is a universal remedy. You can share your belief that something helped you, but you have no right to declare it a medical fact while simultaneously spitting on professional medicine the way you have here. And yes, for that exact reason, I am being rude. Deep down, I am rude, and I always will be (you can bet on that), because I refuse to sit by and watch people in extreme, life-altering crises be sold total garbage disguised as cancer cures. People in those positions are often desperate enough to make catastrophic decisions, like abandoning medical treatment entirely, which can destroy them. Can you actually live with the consequences your suggestions might cause?!
My "rudeness" compared to your selfishness—and the selfishness of everyone else like you who acts like a hero because you think you've "helped" people by claiming to have found a magic bullet for all cancers—is night and day.
Mine is justified and provoked; yours is just plain stupid, regardless of how much you want to label me. So, go ahead. Think whatever you want and say whatever you feel like saying.🙂

I must say, I found myself quite taken aback by that comment... In those moments when I couldn't see a way out and was desperately searching for even a shred of support, Angela Wright managed to find the strength to offer me advice, despite her own grueling struggle with her mother...

There simply isn't room for bickering on this forum, certainly not within this specific thread. We are meant to provide one another with hope, to assist in our faith, and to stand together in the fight... and it was with that exact intention that Angela Wright opened this topic in the first place...

Anyone who disagrees with a sentiment is perfectly entitled to express their view, provided they refrain from harsh judgments and labels. Every experience and every piece of advice remains welcome, regardless of the subject matter...

Folks, I feel the need to share some reflections regarding the posts put forward by Emily Robinson93 and Sandra Martin60.

The assertion that cancer is merely a disease caused by fungi is, quite frankly, unacceptable to me. Furthermore, the information I encountered on that website is equally impossible to stomach for several reasons:
-First and foremost, the site lacks any semblance of transparency.
-There is zero concrete contact information provided: no physical address, no phone number, no bank details—absolutely nothing.
-There is a complete absence of detailed or clear information regarding the clinical studies required to validate a drug's efficacy before making such sweeping claims.
-They fail to name any specific hospitals where this therapy is actually being administered, offering only vague assertions that it is "being used somewhere." You simply cannot accept that as a factual statement.

My personal view is that these posts from Emily Robinson93 and Sandra Martin60 lean much more toward being malicious than well-intentioned. It seems to me that these women are playing fast and loose with data that could dangerously influence people who are grappling with a cancer diagnosis for the very first time. I don't believe their advice comes from a place of goodwill, because they are preemptively painting chemotherapy as something that does more harm than good. I cannot accept that. I truly cannot. I have been in a position myself where I was desperate enough to consider almost any treatment, and I nearly lost my way entirely in that flood of junk data.

My husband completed ten cycles of chemotherapy along with approximately thirty radiation treatments. At the start of his treatment, the prognosis was devastating. He had a soft tissue sarcoma that, following surgery, had only been partially removed. A mass measuring roughly 9.5x9.5 cm remained on the pulmonary artery, situated between his heart and lungs. However, the combination of chemotherapy and radiation effectively dissolved it. According to his most recent scans, the sarcoma is gone. This happened thanks to conventional medicine—thanks to chemotherapy and radiation.

It happened thanks to doctors who followed a treatment protocol that is verified and recognized globally.

That said, there are certain types of cancer that are, unfortunately, resistant to standard treatments. There are cancers for which an effective therapy has yet to be discovered. It is precisely in these tragic cases that "miracle workers" find room to operate. I don't know... personally, this kind of discourse hits me hard. I believe, and I hold firmly to the conviction, that when discussing matters of life and death, one must provide truthful, verifiable evidence.

Honestly, though, I'm pretty surprised you even posted anything after everyone tore me apart for supposedly "selling miracles" when all I was doing was offering basic baking soda from $1.75👍

Emily Robinson93, I asked you a question, and since I haven't heard back from you yet, I’m going to go ahead and repeat it in the hopes that you'll finally give me an answer. Personally, I know plenty of people where modern medicine actually SUCCEEDED—it either cured them or at least managed the cancer enough to give them a decent quality of life. If you really want proof, I can provide a list of names and phone numbers upon request to back up my claim.

So, tell me, how many cases or individuals do you personally know who have been cured or even just stabilized using the methods you're describing? Just say the word, and I'll send over their names and contact numbers so I can reach out to them myself!

And then there's this talk about cost... look, this isn't about the price tag. This is about the truth...

Today marks 18 months since my wife was diagnosed. Thank God, she’s been her usual self through all of this. I honestly don't notice anything out of the ordinary. We're just keeping things positive and refusing to let ourselves get weighed down by thoughts about the future—a future that (for both of us) I know will eventually come.
Thanks to everyone who keeps pushing us to fight and shares practical advice on how to deal with this disease.

Best wishes to everyone, stay strong.

I really want to believe that kind of dark future won't happen to you guys. Why shouldn't it be possible to avoid that? I truly mean that.

It's actually been a year since my mom got her diagnosis this month. Man, where does the time go?

As for indigo22 and emilli, honestly, I think it's better to just completely ignore them rather than even trying to talk to them. It just feeds their egos. If nobody reacts, they'll eventually just drift away on their own. ☕
