I'm so saddened today to hear of yet another sweet friend and her battle with cancer. This time it's the thyroid. She has been so kind and giving to me in the past, it's breaking my heart they have found cancer near there and needs surgery. Another good friend who has been there for me more than anyone the past few years has breast cancer on top of diabetes. How can this be happening. They are internet friends but just as well, I still find it overbearing to know they are having this go on in their lives right now. I have seen my Grandfather go through it and not make it, and my dad have it twice and get through it but. I just can't fathom losing a friend from it, I am so worried for them both. Also, now I don't hear much from my best male friend in CA cause he is so sick and having problems with his health care and where he lives. I just wanna call them and tell them I love them, and wish I could give them all a hug. Do you have any friends right now that are sickly and just worry so much about them all?

My best friend of 25 or 30 years who is a flight attendant and lives in Florida, is going to find out on the 18th, hmmmm, that's tomorrow, whether or not she has lung cancer. They found 2 masses and if they grow, they are doing biospsies. I have been praying that she is okay. I lost my sister and dad to cancer.

That's a long time friend for sure. There is a chance she will have lung cancer, I'm so sorry to hear it. Those masses do not sound good. Are there any kind of alternative steps she can take to try to shrink them? I wish I knew more about that type of thing, it seems to help alot of people with tumors, etc.

She doesn'tknow yet. I am going to get in touch with her Monday and see if she knows anything yet and see what they have told her. My dad had a mass, and they had to take half of his lung. He never got backk hisi full strength, therefore had a massive heart attack when he couldn't get through another surgery because of it, but that's another story.

We make a research for Cancer and we found a solution which we are using at he moment. Guyabano (in Philippines) or known Soursop in English. You just boil the mature leaves fresh leaves and drink it like a tea. 3 times a day or it will be substitute to water. Since this will be his/her medication. Here's the don'ts for a Cancer Patients Eat the fruit as a dessert basis. No milk for cancer patients. No red meat (pork, chicken, beef) No soda Less sugar or stay away from artificial sugar.

Thanks so much, I have heard of the sugars, red meat and milk to stay away from, as cancer cells thrive on that. And, you want to starve it so it helps banish the cancer, right? So that makes sense. I can't find the Soursoap over here so I will continue to do some research on that.
