When Your Family Doesn't Listen! (Cancer)
It really gets frustrating when the ones you love will not listen to what you feel is sound advice for taking the responsibility of their health and living longer, into their own hands, instead of handing it over to someone that they "feel" knows more than they do! The medical establishment can be very well versed in what they've been taught in medical school....but chances are, unless they took the initiative to do research on their own, they do not know the technologies that are available to their patients through means other than what the mainstream has taught them.
In my opinion....if all they've done is learn what our medical universities have taught them.....then they are only in it for the money....and not to genuinely help you or me, or a loved one. I believe that is the time to move on to another doctor who does have your best interests at heart (and they are out there), and will guide you to other alternatives to beating your disease!
With all the information that is out there....where do you start and what do you believe?
A good start would be: Guide To Alternative Cancer Therapy
It will give you the information and resources for helping you to find the best alternative method that will benefit you the most.
Another great web site for walking you through your due diligence on the best treatments is:
CanHelp
The above web site was started by a lady who had aggressive breast cancer....not once, but twice. So consult someone who has walked the walk.
Have I tried directing my siblings to these sites? You bet! But as the saying goes, "You can lead a horse to water.....but you can't make him drink it!"
In the meantime, become a particpant in your cancer care, instead of just a person who accepts whatever their doctor tells them they have to do in order to beat this disease. Ask the questions that need to be asked.....how long is this therapy going to extent my life, what will it do to my body (long term), how many people have had re-occurrence with this treatment and in what time frame? Most important question....."Would you go through this yourself?"
