Does anyone know of a great cancer treatment center?
My uncle was recently diagnosed with colon cancer stage four, liver cancer, pancreas cancer and brain cancer. He also has diabetes. Doctors say he has probably had this for about eight years, but was never diagnosed. He is given only two months to live. Anyone know of any centers, treatments or survival stories that apply? thanks.

Contact Gary Null Associates... http://www.garynull.com They can point you in the right direction. Edit: Gary Y - Dr Luc Montagnier is the person who along with Robert Gallo supposedly "discovered" HIV... right? Here's Dr. Montagnier - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQoNW7lOnT4 Is he a quack? All modern medicine does is match symptoms to pharmaceutical drugs and doctors are compensated for pushing untested drugs. NOW THAT'S QUACKERY! If Gary Null was such a "quack", why isn't he in jail? I can tell you! It is because when he speaks about alternative and natural cures, he always does it while showing Citations from the Peer Reviewed Medical Journals. He uses documentation from those who say it's quackery, showing that they themselves do the studies and publish the findings. So who's the REAL quack? It's could be you! And the biggest hypocrite of them all, the quack - Steven Barrett. He's not even what he claims to be! He's not even board certified and he lied about it. Is this who we're supposed to trust?

Alternative cancer treatment centers are only going to take his money; they will not be able to offer anything other than that. Cancer quackery is rife; you need to be extremely skeptical when considering it, and do not apply much value to anecdotes. It is the scientific data that counts. Please read: "Alternative medicine: Evaluate claims of treatment success" http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/alternative-medicine/SA00078 "A Special Message for Cancer Patients Seeking "Alternative" Treatments" http://www.quackwatch.com/00AboutQuackwatch/altseek.html Best wishes. PS: Gary Null is a classic example. He is an anti-vaccine activist and a denier of HIV as the cause of AIDS. Total whackjob. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_Null#Criticisms ------- EDIT: @NA, 'alkalize his body' - this is more quackery. How do you propose this is done? Regardless of what you eat, your blood pH will range between 7.35 and 7.45. If you could raise it to 8.5, severe metabolic alkalosis (ie; blood pH >7.55) would set in and could be fatal. ------- EDIT: @Sensei, by invoking Dr Luc Montagnier, you are arguing from authority; that does not mean Gary Null is not a quack. And in this case, you are actually arguing from false authority. Even though Dr Montagnier is a Nobel Prize winner and is attributed with the discovery of the link between HIV and AIDS, that does not mean he is always right. In fact, most of his colleagues have disowned him now after many outlandish statements, for example: “French virologist Luc Montagnier stunned his colleagues at a prestigious international conference when he presented a new method for detecting viral infections that bore close parallels to the basic tenets of homeopathy. Although fellow Nobel prize winners -- who view homeopathy as quackery -- were left openly shaking their heads, Montagnier's comments were rapidly embraced by homeopaths eager for greater credibility.� http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/health-science/nobel-laureate-gives-homeopathy-a-boost/story-e6frg8y6-1225887772305 You said: “All modern medicine does is match symptoms to pharmaceutical drugs and doctors are compensated for pushing untested drugs.� That is a bald faced lie, typical of fundamentalist alt med fanatics and conspiracy theorists who invoke such rubbish when pressed for evidence for whatever quackery they are promoting. If you think I’m wrong please post your hard evidence that proves otherwise. Dr Steven Barrett, did not lie about his credentials as you suggest. This is well known and is even more fundie BS. The fact that Gary Null is not in Jail does not mean he is not a quack. Where did you get that from? He does not support what he says/sells with proper peer reviewed scientific data, otherwise he would not be selling ‘magnetic bras’. He is a master snake oil salesman and you can’t see it. Clearly you are a very credulous person who is getting your information from crank websites, and falling for their scam nonsense hook, line and sinker. The problem is, people like you come websites like this and pass on quack bullshit to innocent people with real health concerns.

I think that your family needs to accept the fact that your uncle has a terminal illness and he is not going to get any better. With his cancer being so far advanced and spreading everywhere, it's time to stop trying to make him better and try to make him as comfortable as possible until it comes to the end for him. Why drag him around to doctors, treatments, hospitals when all they are going to do is to cause him a lot more discomfort and not help him at all. All it will do is cause more stress to him and take more money from him. The people that can help him is Hospice. They are wonderful and will do everything possible to make him comfortable until the end. They are experts in knowing what to do and what to expect. They help both the patient and the families get through this terrible time of losing someone. Call them instead of trying to find a cure for his cancer. I don't know of any survival stories from anyone having as much cancer as your uncle. His doctors are probably right in their estimate of the time he has left. My brother had cancer like your uncle and lived 6 weeks.

Your uncle needs a miracle. Western medicne has nothing to help him. You have nothing to lose to try and alkalize his body to 8.5 for a few days., to kill the cancer. You are probably a troll 'doctor' anyway trying to set someone up, at this site., anyway. If not, I wish you and yours well.
