> What a great site for info and to find other VICTORS who have this disease!

> In Dec of 1994 my mother had two tumors removed during a hysterecotmy that

> contained LMS. Her Drs had not heard very much about this cancer except that

> it was rare and that there was no cure. They offered her radiation and she

> refused.

> After being diagnosed she began to eat right, take supplements, and drink

> teas. She looked and felt great.A year and four months later our family faced

> a horrible ordeal, my brother was murdered after getting his paycheck

> cashed.We were devestated. Our faith and trust in the Lord got us through the

> terrible ordeal but my mother suffered a great loss and her heart was broken.

> This past March,a year after my brothers death, my mother had a recurrence of

> the cancer in both of her lungs.We were devasted!!! The only choice she had

> was to cut it out and the prognosis wass not good.They gave her a 20% chance

> of survival.If she chose not to have the surgery she had at least a year to

> 18 months.She had her first surgery in April and the second in June.We

> prayed,we juiced, drank essiac, ate vegetarian diet, adn she takes all of

> those supplements you listed and then some.

> Well here we are again and they have found another tumor in her lungs.Its

> small, it can be removed but my mother is very discouraged.

> We are looking for all an d any info on this disease.WE really do not care to

> know any stats on life expectancy but treatments, alternative and

> conventional.Where is a good place to take her records to get a second

> opinion or recieve more advice? Aslo the DRS here haven't even seen this

> cancer.How can they possibly know how to treat her? Does your DR have a lot

> of experience dealing with this cancer?
