There was an absolutely fascinating seminar on cancer salves. see www.cancersalves.com for a peek. The woman who spoke is the only practitioner in Canada. She and Sat Dharam have a protocol. Her name is Judith and she got Ingrid Naiman's book Cancer Salves and then went to work learning how to prepare and administer them from Ingrid and two other doctors. She prefers to use the less aggressive goldenseal salve rather than the bloodroot. Less painful. The thing that blew my mind was the two women who were introduced after the slide presentation. One was Stage 4 at biopsy. Her liver metastases are being drawn back to the breast, receding according to scans and ultrasounds. Several primary tumors have already come to the surface of the breast and fallen out. Because her cancer was spread, her treatment is expected to last at least a year. The public health nurses come to her house and change the wound dressings every two days and apparently she is quite the talk of the town up where she lives. The younger nurses are itching to take a turn seeing this old fashioned cancer treatment in progress. Some of the nurses are now applying the fresh salve treatment so Sat Dharam doesn't have to make a house call. Paid for by the health care system! Now that's what I call alternative medicine! Aliss T. (cancer patient and advocate) Do you mean to say that the salves got rid of the tumors without surgery? (I can't speak for Aliss, but I was also at the conference and the answer to your question is) Yes! The salves are amazing in their effects, particularly for tumors near the surface. However, they are also very painful. LeonardLeonard1@CS.COM (advocate) LINK Aliss T. Reports Remember we are NOT Doctors and have NO medical training.
