I have to take issue with a couple of your statements...
For starters:
Without your health you have/are nothing and can help no one.
Nonsense. Lots of people suffer ill health of varying degrees, and it has nothing to do with their lifestyle (which is to say they don't bring it on
themselves). Further...one may have chronic ill health and make huge contributions to the world about them, in fact, you have basically encouraged
people to let their ill health define them, and define themselves as useless...wrong again.
If you are not aware of it growing in your body and you wait until you
have full blown cancer, well then you probly waited too long and prayer
is about all you have left anyway.
Nonsense...by the time I was made aware of the cancer in my body, it was full blown, but still eminently treatable. That is the key to any
treatment...be it alternative or standard...it works best when caught early on. Cancer kills...so does chemo...you bet the odds that the chemo kills
the cancer before either one kills you.
However, if you were in tune with your body in the first place,
and took care of yourself, and are healthy,
it may never progress to where you even need chemo!
Cancer happens everywhere and touches everyone...you can reduce the likelihood of some occurring, but lets not blame the victim.
I would respectfully submit that unless one has personally danced with the dragon...they have no idea.
