Hey - it's good to see you again! :) If you see a short excerpt here and wish to read more, click on the Green Title for Full Story.

Let’s take a look at some widely-publicised facts about Patrick Swayze

He has pancreatic cancer – true.
He was on chemotherapy – true.
He continued smoking – true.
He wanted to be a rapper – true.
Health professionals said he had “excellent response” to chemo!  - true.  Ref:  Metro.co.uk
He responded “excellent” to chemo – false, he was in a wheelchair!  Ref:  Mailonsunday.co.uk
He gave up chemo – true.
But he also did nothing more to battle cancer – true.
He passed away. – true.

“It used to take 10 to 20 years to die of Cancer, but now it can take 2 days to a few months…or a year!”

Dirty Dancing star Patrick Swayze was a victim of chemotherapy AND smoking.   He was LOYAL to both.

“Between 2000 and 2005, mammography screening rates declined by 4% among women over 40 and by 7% in women between the ages of 50 and 64 (this group was studied because they were  most at risk for breast cancer).

Prostate cancer screening rates also have declined since 2000.  Fewer cases of cancers are getting diagnosed due to decline in screenings, that means more people are running around with undiagnosed cancers.   And the America Cancer Society (ACS) claimed credit for decrease in cancer.  (Do you see the contradiction?)

While most sources say there’s been an increase in screening for colorectal cancer, other sources like   Smartbrief.com indicate quite the opposite.

Despite this contradiction, the medical establishment nevertheless attributes the improved numbers to the wonders of pharmaceuticals and other treatment advances.

Advances in medicine may not have much to do with declining breast cancer rates and deaths — in fact, quite the contrary!

Even the experts — including ACS’ Dr. Jemal — admit that the decreased use of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) probably plays a primary role in the decrease in breast cancer rates.

It may also be that the dramatically increased use of natural progesterone creams now being used by hundreds of thousands of women — particularly after being regularly promoted on Oprah’s show — is keeping the rates down.

Likewise, decrease in colon cancer may reflect an increased attention to fibre and an increased consumption of Omega 3 fatty acids, and not merely be the result of colonoscopy screening.

To anyone who’s observed long enough,it’s quite obvious that perhaps the ACS was a bit too eager to take credit for something modern medicine has nothing to do with.  Perhaps changes in lifestyle and environment have had far more impact.

John Bailar III of the National Academy of Sciences concurs,’The whole cancer establishment has been focused on treatment, which has not been terribly productive,” he says. “I think what people should conclude from this is we ought to be putting most of our resources where we know there has been progress, almost in spite of what we’ve done, and stop this single-minded focus on treatment.’ “  -  Written by Dr. Jon Barron at The Baseline of Health Foundation;  republished with permission and extracted from Dr. Jon Barron’s website JonBarron.org (Please click to read his great articles in full.  Dr. Barron is amazing in his dedication towards ethical healthcare and has good body detoxification info.)

I refer to blog entry stating that medical technology (ie. drugs and chemotherapy) DID NOT and have NEVER advanced medicine or treatment of our Cancer sufferers.  Will we lose another great star to Cancer?

RIP Pat!  You are always remembered for DIRTY DANCING and more.
