(NaturalNews) Former White House press secretary Tony Snow died in July 2008
at the age of 53, following a series of chemotherapy treatments for colon
cancer. In 2005, Snow had his colon removed and underwent six months of
chemotherapy after being diagnosed with colon cancer. Two years later
(2007), Snow underwent surgery to remove a growth in his abdominal area,
near the site of the original cancer. "This is a very treatable condition,"
said Dr. Allyson Ocean, a gastrointestinal oncologist at Weill Cornell
Medical College. "Many patients, because of the therapies we have, are able
to work and live full lives with quality while they're being treated. Anyone
who looks at this as a death sentence is wrong." But of course we now know,
Dr. Ocean was dead wrong.
The media headlines proclaimed Snow died from colon cancer, although they
knew he didn't have a colon anymore. Apparently, the malignant cancer had
"returned" (from where?) and "spread" to the liver and elsewhere in his
body. In actual fact, the colon surgery severely restricted his normal
eliminative functions, thereby overburdening the liver and tissue fluids
with toxic waste. The previous series of chemo-treatments inflamed and
irreversibly damaged a large number of cells in his body, and also impaired
his immune system -- a perfect recipe for growing new cancers. Now unable to
heal the causes of the original cancer (in addition to the newly created
ones), Snow's body developed new cancers in the liver and other parts of the
body.
The mainstream media, of course, still insist Snow died from colon cancer,
thus perpetuating the myth that it is only the cancer that kills people, not
the treatment. Nobody seems to raise the important point that it is
extremely difficult for a cancer patient to actually heal from this
condition while being subjected to the systemic poisons of chemotherapy and
deadly radiation. If you are bitten by a poisonous snake and don't get an
antidote for it, isn't it likely that your body becomes overwhelmed by the
poison and, therefore, cannot function anymore?
Before Tony Snow began his chemo-treatments for his second colon cancer, he
still looked healthy and strong. But after a few weeks into his treatment,
he started to develop a coarse voice, looked frail, turned gray and lost his
hair. Did the cancer do all this to him? Certainly not. Cancer doesn't do
such a thing, but chemical poisoning does. He actually looked more ill than
someone who has been bitten by a poisonous snake.
Does the mainstream media ever report about the overwhelming scientific
evidence that shows chemotherapy has zero benefits in the five-year survival
rate of colon cancer patients? Or how many oncologists stand up for their
cancer patients and protect them against chemotherapy treatment which they
very well know can cause them to die far more quickly than if they received
no treatment at all? Can you trustingly place your life into their hands
when you know that most of them would not even consider chemotherapy for
themselves if they were diagnosed with cancer? What do they know that you
don't? The news is spreading fast that in the United States physician-caused
fatalities now exceed 750,000 each year. Perhaps, many doctors no longer
trust in what they practice, for good reasons.
"Most cancer patients in this country die of chemotherapy... Chemotherapy
does not eliminate breast, colon or lung cancers. This fact has been
documented for over a decade. Yet doctors still use chemotherapy for these
tumors... Women with breast cancer are likely to die faster with chemo than
without it." - Alan Levin, M.D.
An investigation by the Department of Radiation Oncology, Northern Sydney
Cancer Centre, Australia, into the contribution of chemotherapy to 5-year
survival in 22 major adult malignancies, showed startling results: The
overall contribution of curative and adjuvant cytotoxic chemotherapy to
5-year survival in adults was estimated to be 2.3% in Australia and 2.1% in
the USA." [Royal North Shore Hospital Clin Oncol (R Coll Radiol) 2005
Jun;17(4):294.]
The research covered data from the Cancer Registry in Australia and the
Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results in the USA for the year 1998. The
current 5-year relative adult survival rate for cancer in Australia is over
60%, and no less than that in the USA. By comparison, a mere 2.3%
contribution of chemotherapy to cancer survival does not justify the massive
expense involved and the tremendous suffering patients experience because of
severe, toxic side effects resulting from this treatment. With a meager
success rate of 2.3%, selling chemotherapy as a medical treatment (instead
of a scam), is one of the greatest fraudulent acts ever committed. The
average chemotherapy earns the medical establishment a whopping $300,000 to
$1,000,000 each year, and has so far earned those who promote this
pseudo-medication (poison) over 1 trillion dollars. It's no surprise that
the medical establishment tries to keep this scam alive for as long as
possible.
In 1990, the highly respected German epidemiologist, Dr. Ulrich Abel from
the Tumor Clinic of the University of Heidelberg, conducted the most
comprehensive investigation of every major clinical study on chemotherapy
drugs ever done. Abel contacted 350 medical centers and asked them to send
him anything they had ever published on chemotherapy. He also reviewed and
analyzed thousands of scientific articles published in the most prestigious
medical journals. It took Abel several years to collect and evaluate the
data. Abel's epidemiological study, which was published on August 10, 1991
in The Lancet, should have alerted every doctor and cancer patient about the
risks of one of the most common treatments used for cancer and other
diseases. In his paper, Abel came to the conclusion that the overall success
rate of chemotherapy was "appalling." According to this report, there was no
scientific evidence available in any existing study to show that
chemotherapy can "extend in any appreciable way the lives of patients
suffering from the most common organic cancers."
Abel points out that chemotherapy rarely improves the quality of life. He
describes chemotherapy as "a scientific wasteland" and states that even
though there is no scientific evidence that chemotherapy works, neither
doctor nor patient is willing to give up on it. The mainstream media has
never reported on this hugely important study, which is hardly surprising,
given the enormous vested interests of the groups that sponsor the media,
that is, the pharmaceutical companies. A recent search turned up exactly
zero reviews of Abel's work in American journals, even though it was
published in 1990. I believe this is not because his work was unimportant --
but because it is irrefutable.
The truth of the matter would be far too costly for the pharmaceutical
industry to bear, thus making it unacceptable. If the mass media reported
the truth that medical drugs, including chemotherapy drugs, are used to
practically commit genocide in the U.S. and the world, their best sponsors
(the pharmaceutical companies) would have to withdraw their misleading
advertisements from the television media, radio stations, magazines, and
newspapers. But neither group wants to go bankrupt.
Many doctors go as far as prescribing chemotherapy drugs to patients for
malignancies that are far too advanced for surgery, with the full knowledge
that there are no benefits at all. Yet they claim chemotherapy to be an
effective cancer treatment, and their unsuspecting patients believe that
"effective" equals "cure." The doctors, of course, refer to the FDA's
definition of an "effective" drug, one which achieves a 50% or more
reduction in tumor size for 28 days. They neglect to tell their patients
that there is no correlation whatsoever between shrinking tumors for 28 days
and curing the cancer or extending life. Temporary tumor shrinkage through
chemotherapy has never been shown to cure cancer or to extend life. In other
words, you can live with an untreated tumor for just as long as you would
with one that has been shrunken or been eliminated by chemotherapy (or
radiation).
Chemotherapy has never been shown to have curative effects for cancer. By
contrast, the body can still cure itself, which it actually tries to do by
developing cancer. Cancer is more a healing response than it is a disease.
The "disease" is the body's attempt to cure itself of an existing imbalance.
And sometimes, this healing response continues even if a person is subjected
to chemotherapy (and/or radiation). Unfortunately, as the previously
mentioned research has demonstrated, the chances for a real cure are greatly
reduced when patients are treated with chemotherapy drugs.
The side effects of the treatment can be horrendous and heartbreaking for
both patients and their loved ones, all in the name of trustworthy medical
treatment. Although the drug treatment comes with the promise to improve the
patient's quality of life, it is just common sense that a drug that makes
them throw up and lose their hair, while wrecking their immune system, is
doing the exact opposite. Chemo-therapy can give the patient
life-threatening mouth sores. It attacks the immune system by destroying
billions of immune cells (white blood cells). Its deadly poisons inflame
every part of the body. The drugs can slough off the entire lining of their
intestines. The most common side effect experienced among chemo patients is
their complete lack of energy. The new additional drugs now given to many
chemo patients may prevent the patient from noticing some of the side
effects, but they hardly reduce the immensely destructive and suppressive
effect of the chemotherapy itself. Remember, the reason chemotherapy can
shrink some tumors is because it causes massive destruction in the body.
If you have cancer, you may think that feeling tired is just part of the
disease. This rarely is the case. Feeling unusually tired is more likely due
to anemia, a common side effect of most chemotherapy drugs. Chemo drugs can
dramatically decrease your red blood cell levels, and this reduces oxygen
availability to the 60-100 trillion cells of your body. You can literally
feel the energy being zapped from every cell of your body -- a physical
death without dying. Chemo-caused fatigue has a negative impact on
day-to-day activities in 89% of all patients. With no energy, there can be
no joy and no hope, and all bodily functions become subdued.
One long-term side effect is that these patients' bodies can no longer
respond to nutritional or immune-strengthening approaches to cancerous
tumors. All of this may explain why cancer patients who do not receive any
treatment at all, have an up to four times higher remission rate than those
who receive treatment. The sad thing is that chemotherapy does not cure 96%
to 98% of all cancers anyway. Conclusive evidence (for the majority of
cancers) that chemotherapy has any positive influence on survival or quality
of life does not exist.
To promote chemotherapy as a treatment for cancer is misleading, to say the
least. By permanently damaging the body's immune system and other important
parts, chemo-therapy has become a leading cause of treatment-caused diseases
such as heart disease, liver disease, intestinal diseases, diseases of the
immune system, infections, brain diseases, pain disorders, and rapid aging.
Before committing themselves to being poisoned, cancer patients need to
question their doctors and ask them to produce the research or evidence that
shrinking a tumor actually translates to any increase in survival. If they
tell you that chemotherapy is your best chance of surviving, you will know
they are lying or are simply misinformed. As Abel's research clearly
demonstrated, there is no such evidence anywhere to be found in the medical
literature. Subjecting patients to chemotherapy robs them of a fair chance
of finding or responding to a real cure and deserves criminal prosecution.
