I was recommended to you by &quot;Flower&quot;. I haven&#039;t spent long on your site, but will do so.

Yes, my oncologist at the Churchill Hospital, Oxford, is an expert in her field, specifically upper GI tract, and another of her specialties is cancer medicine. There is no doubt in her mind that my treatment at the Hospital is purely palliative, but I don&#039;t want anyone&#039;s guess at my life expectancy because I agree my own actions will be influencing the outcome. In fact I don&#039;t take her word that I&#039;m a terminal case, but introduce it at the beginning of my blog as the status quo, probably to draw out the kind of comments that you have made.

As regards my diet: Right now most things I attempt to digest come straight back at me, including many juices and organic smoothies, etc., because they seem to be too acidic and, as the remaining aperture between the oesophagus and stomach is so narrow, it doesn&#039;t take much to reject things. the Ensure product is hopefully temporary, as the tumour is now being shrunk by the radiotherapy and soon I will b able to eat again, at which time I will &quot;ensure&quot; that only the best stuff gets eaten.

The radiotherapy should also hopefully stop the cancer from bleeding, which at the moment is creating merry hell with my haemoglobin. Some say I shouldn&#039;t, but I am taking a liquid iron supplement as prescribed by my physician until the bleeding stops. Does iron feed the tumour? One professor in Washington with whom I am in contact says &quot;yes&quot;. My oncologist says they deal with cancer patients exclusively at the Churchill, and there is no evidence that iron has any effect at all on tumour growth.

This is therefore another part of the scenario - how to deal with expert opinion which is so often in conflict?

My wife makes the soup from organic ingredients, and treats me with the occasional creamy dessert to relieve the monotony. My alcohol intake extends to one small glass of straight malt scotch and water, or maybe a single glass of wine. I hope these alone are not going to kill me.

I will attempt to learn more from your site. I wil also be visiting the Penny Brohn Centre in Bristol next week. Once the radiotherapy and its effcets are made manifest I wil feel freer to seek a way forward.</description>

		<description>You commented on my blog at crazysexylife.com on &quot;so you just found out you have cancer, now what?&quot;  It went on to introduce my documentary film &quot;icurecancer.com&quot; and mentioned it is also a website:  www.icurecancer.com which is a portal to an amazing amount of alternative medical wonders.  And of course a link to order the film which will sum up the situation of Western Medicine VS Alternative from my perspective.  

You didn&#039;t mention whether you checked that site out or not. You told me a bit about yourself and then signed off.  I came to this site and browsed over it a bit.  The thing that strikes me funny is that you have been told by someone (I assume some Oncologist) that your cancer can not be healed.  Doesn&#039;t surprise me because most Western Doctors are ignorant of what the body is capable of doing when cleansed of toxins and fed correct nutrients, vit&#039;s and min&#039;s, herbs etc...  But what kind of upsets me is that you take his word as if he got a phone call from God and said you were a gonner.  He&#039;s just a man that goes to the toilette like everyone else.  Don&#039;t take his opinion for God sakes!  

I also noticed a bit on your diet.  Now I haven&#039;t had the time to go through this site with a fine tooth comb so forgive me if I&#039;m addressing something you later said.  But you seemed excited to find &quot;Ensure&quot; because it gave you all the vitamins and minerals you needed.  WHAT A JOKE!!!  
And then you went on with the rest of your day&#039;s food intake which did not mention anything organic and included wine and whiskey!!!  LLLLOOOOLLLL!  (laugh out loud).

Okay again maybe I missed something but cancer feeds on sugar so booze is out (for the time being) and ensure is synthetically processed and not worth the paper the label is printed on.  

Canser is in your body because you are in acidosis.  Cancer can not live in the body if you can re-alkaline yourself by bringing your PH which is probably around 5 up to 7.2 for 3 months.  Then the healing can really begin.  It&#039;s too much to explain now but if you are truly open to learn more than your Oncologist is telling you go to www.icurecancer.com and do some reading.  Also you can email me from there.  And make sure you watch this video (an excerpt from my documentary)  

http://my.crazysexylife.com/video/video/show?id=2001521:Video:59585

I researched for ten years to make this film and although not a Dr. I&#039;ve met enough people in your situation that ignored their doctors and healed themselves to know it&#039;s possible.

peace

		<description>&quot;Many might surmise that a good question for the physician is “How long have I got?” In my case, I’d rather not be bound by someone’s (albeit educated) guess. I’d prefer to fight the event on my terms and figure I’ll last a bit longer that way.&quot;

I have nearly always found this to be case and that one&#039;s self belief and inner strength are what really matter together with the love and support from family and friends</description>

		<description>And can you post your songlist.  What music do you think of each day?  Maybe a &quot;song per day&quot; from Tony?  I just played the Hill Street Blues Theme by accident.  That was a mistake.</description>
