The Diagnosis

Well, believe it or not, my journey along this road began on September 11  (can you believe that?) of 2013. What I thought was a lipoma just beneath my right breast was annoying me so I went to a dermatologist to have it excised. Instead he biopsied it and found cancer cells. So began the journey down the labyrinth of western medicine.

For a very long time, I have been moving away from standard allopathic, AMA-trained medicine. I have many books about alternative therapies (for various diseases, including cancer). I have tried to apply these therapies to my life. As I create posts on this blog, I may be adding a link or two for those who may be curious about "outside of the box" thinking in health care. These are not meant to preach, only to inform the curious.

So -- yes, I have breast cancer. Wow, just in time for all those pink ribbons in October. Knowing that I was now about to hop onto that train of propaganda turned my stomach

Here's a clip from Pink Ribbons, Inc. Youtube has removed the full length film. Please seek it out, it's quite enlightening.


Did you know that Astra Zeneca, the company that manufactures the breast cancer therapy called Tamoxifen was behind the whole pink ribbon campaign? It's all about big buck-os, people.
