> (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

> 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

> 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

> 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

> "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

> 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

> 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.
