The widely accepted cancer treatments of today may be lengthening the patient's life somewhat...but they sure aren't curing him/her, IMO.
It is frustrating Gus. I've lost contact with several people I know who had a tumor removed and stated that they're doctor told them they were cancer free without chemo and lifelong vigilance. They didn't like my advice to get chemo or my statements that they were NOT cancer free.. As you and I know, and as my deceased wife's oncologist stated, there are as many cancer cells running through your body as there are cancer cells in a tumor. A tumor holds billions. So removing a tumor does not remove the cancer. That's why people go "cancer free" for 1-2 years and then get hit harder by cancer. The floating cells attached somewhere else.
