Hi, Pearls!
My suggestion to you is to talk to your brother about it. Don't offer him false hope, just offer him the alternative(s). Just off the top of my head, I can name seven different solutions for cancer:
Dr. Clark's protocols
Dr. Budwig's flaxseed oil and cottage cheese protocol
Dr. Schulze 's Incurables Program
Laetrille Therapy (a.k.a. Vitamin B17)
Cesium Therapy
Oxygen Therapy
Taheebo Therapy
And I just read about another new one described in a paper in the Februrary/March 2003 issue of
Townsend Letter, whose name I'm forgetting at the moment, but it's based on another mineral (palladium?).
The amazing thing is how hard it is to make these techniques (and I'm sure there are others...) available to the general public!
You cannot, however, promise him that any of these techniques will definitely help him, because he's the one that has to follow through with it, and if he doesn't follow through, then of course they cannot help him. He's in a position right now where he has to decide whether or not he's willing to fight for himself. If he's not willing to fight for himself -- in other words, if he wants someone else to save him -- then there's no chance for him, anyway.
If he's interested in seeing what the "fringe" has to say, get him a copy of
The Cure for All Advanced Cancers, or point out all the resources available online. Help him get started working on this problem himself. It's really the only thing you have left to offer him.
I'd like you to take a look at
this link, which is an open letter from
Dr. Schulze to people who come to him asking for help for someone else. I'm hoping his words might help you a bit in getting through this period, since he's got so much more experience dealing with these kinds of issues than I do. (Bear in mind that his response is tailored to his Incurables program, but the ideas are just as relevant to any of the other methods.)
Good luck!
