My mother has just recently been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, by imaging, not by biopsy so we are still hoping.

Pancreatic cancer has a survival rate of less than 6% after one year, so really the only hope is alternative therapy or clinical trials. We have contacted a private clinic that will work with DCA (dichloroacetate), but now I am going to look for clinical trials involving Minnelide (the synthesized version of the thunder god vine).

I cannot thank you enough for posting this. There is almost nothing available to fight pancreatic cancer, and almost no such thing as remission from it.

My Mom lost her battle last Monday. If you have a loved one with pancreatic cancer do not wait for main stream medicine to confirm, don't wait for chemo, don't wait for the biopsy. You don't have time. My Mom was 5 weeks from tentative diagnosis to death. Please start your alternative treatments while waiting. For this awful cancer, you have no choice.

There are many nasty diseases out there and in some ways, I think it is better to have a disease which only lasts for a little while before bringing things to a close. Of course no-one wants a loved one to die, but a shorter time is better than a longer drawn-out period.

The Chinese also have their diseases as well - in spite of having thousands of years of medicine experience more than we have in the West. There is still cancer here and people still die of cancer and other serious diseases every day. If there was one cure all in Chinese medicine, there would be no deaths from cancer, would there?

Back to discussing the West however, many effective cures have been dubbed as "quack" cures and the medical establishments have been quick to take these cures off the availability list. In the early 1900's there were many clinics which used fasting as a cure for serious diseases and they had good results. However, they seem to have disappeared now for whatever reason. Maybe because people like to "take something" for their disease and the idea of taking nothing to get better is one which we have been programmed not to accept.

A little research will find many old books on the subject and many clinics were very successful at curing serious diseases, but the fact remains that they were ALSO teaching a lifestyle change and bad lifestyle choices is possibly what caused the serious disease in the first instance. People do not want to change their lifestyle - even if it means living a healthy long life. We are too wedded to our quick and dirty methods of microwaving and eating preserved foods rather than traditional oven cooking and preparing food ourselves.

Emotions often play a large part in serious disease too. I have heard that you often find the development of a serious disease within 2 years of a close loved one dying.

So I am afraid it is probably a lifestyle thing - from squatting to avoid piles, to baking our own bread. We just want the advertisements version of life which is not a healthy reality for us unfortunately.

We have to realise that we are energy beings and energy medicine is the basis for all medications and all diseases and cures will be based on that fact.

Finally, there have been many many people prosecuted by the medical authorities for being 'quacks' but they achieved results for some people - just like the medical doctors do not cure everyone these days.

There is a lot of information on alternative cures for diseases, but we have to go searching for it and to be discerning which ones we use and in the end, it is "horses for courses".

In the end, there're a billion trillion sextillion sextillion things that can wipe us off the map. People fall like flies. How many dogs and cats you think die from cancer every? A lot!

Death is everywhere. It's not something to fear. Fear of death is a waste of time.

I think it's better to die young than to grow old and slowly fall apart and yearn for your younger years. While it's not bad to live old, it's at least one positive way to look at dying young.

Modern culture is too materialistic and delusional to understand what I'm saying here. I'm saying that death is a normal thing and we shouldn't be afraid. Old age is not any better.

Unless you dream of the day when you can sit and watch TV most of the day because your body is too rundown to do much more than that. Many of them can't read because they can't focus up close. They can't hear either. Forget sex. A dozen pills in the morning. Oh ya, this is a dream come true.

Live strong, pe proud and don't worry about dying. Be aggressive about this life. Don't be soft. There's a whole of things to experience and you only have one chance to experience them. If you live your life weak you're wasting it and will live with that regret until your last breathe.

Blink your eyes. That's how fast the next 20 years will go by. In a flash you'll be old. That's how fast it happens. I'm not tricking. This is the truth. Ask anybody that's 80+. No time to waste.
