Unless a person has been given only a scant few days to a couple of weeks left I strongly disagree that chemo or any other kind of mere palliative care is the ony thing one can do. A very great many people with stage IV chancer which had been given a death sentence by mainstream medicine, including lung cancer with mets, have been saved with alternative treatments. My 80 plus year old uncle is one of them.
The things you are doing are good - particularly the turmeric if you are giving her a LOT of it and having her take it with black pepper and/or a healthy fat item such as coconut oil or coconut milk. However, there are many other things you and the original postercould also do which are also strong cancer fighters.
Browse through this forum and you will find most of them.
I applaud you for your efforts! And I do not doubt at all that you have done everything you could figure out to do to save your beloved wife. Don't give up the fight, my friend!
However, I will point out that it is not unusual for chemo or radiation to shrink tumors by up to 50% or more - but thoe are usually procedures with ever-diminishing returns requiring more and stronger treatments which result in leaving - and even creating - more resistant cancer cells and in the process destroying the immen system, which is the natural first line of defense, and damaging the major organs and rest of the body.
One thing I will pass along - oleander extract has been shown to reduce or eliminate virtually all side effects associated with chemo - with the sole exception last I knew about that it did not eliminate hair loss when the chemo drug of choice was Cisplatin.
Thank you for your message and well wishes
She is strong although her strentgh is not what she was but I am confodent the onc was quite surprised to see how well she looks and acts she is a natural. Hair loss occurred on the first week it wasn't cisplatin somehow it was changed to carbotaxol similar the dosage was 700ml of it over four bags in total 1 cycle of 5 hours long every 17 days total number of cycles 6.
Now in regard to oleander extract Where do I get it? I know that there is one plcae in Tegucigalpa but not sure how effective and if I can get it through customs sometimes Australian customs can be very picky.
Thanks
She is exceptionally strong in body and mind she also has great belief and faith she is 55 Argentine national now living in Australia. One must not discard the power of one's mind to be in her situation dying from a secondary bone cancer for 9 months with extreme pain (the cancer was lodged in the pubic bone)yet survived a very risky operation performed by an exceptional surgeon and come out with no drug dependency after 3 months post op says something about her.
We vistied the onc ths morning Australian time and she was amazed at my wife's turn around the tumors have all but dissapered there is a very small nodule but not really important to cause any major upset so she has been cleared of terminal lung cancer stage IV that makes her a 5 times survivor.which is all a records she is not proud of but not generally seen in the medical onc profession.
Her onc said my wife is not the average onc patient and she is very proud of having her as a patient my wife will remind in check fevery three months for the rest of her life . The onc gave her more than two years life perhaps seven or more if all things remain equal.
Congratulations on the great news! In addition to her great will to live don't sell your own care and contributions short - including the things you have helped her take and do along with the chemo.
In regards to your earlier question about obtaining oleander: lots of folks in Australia make their own. It's really not that difficult - it just takes time and you do have to follow the instructions carefully. See:

Other than that, the two suppliers of supplemental oleander that I am most familiar with both ship to Australia I believe. One is sutherlandiaopc.com which ships from South Africa and the other is CureZone sponsor Utopiasilver (utopiasilver.com), which ships from Texas. The oleander extract from both supplier is made at the same pharmaceutical manufacturing facility in South Africa. The one in South Africa has Sutherlandia OPC, which is 80% oleander and 20% Sutherlandia frutescens (commonly knonw as "The South Africa Cancer Bush") and they also have a product that adds N-Acetyl Cysteine. The Texas supplier's supplement is 100% oleander.
Thanks for letting us know the good news, and keep us posted!.
