I’ve helped dozens of cases of simple breast cancer where my treatment began before the cancer broadly spread.  Kelly’s case was not the easiest of this group, nor the hardest.  Sometimes there was lymphatic involvement that the medical doctors had not yet treated in any way.  All but one of my early-onset breast cancer cases recovered.  I believe those are far better results than achieved by AMA treatment.

Before I crow too much, let me stress that every one of these women was a good candidate for recovery—­under 40 years old, ambulatory and did not feel very sick.  And most importantly, every one of them had received no other debilitating medical treatment except a needle biopsy or simple lumpectomy.  None of these women had old tumors (known about for more than six months) and none of the tumors were enormous (nothing larger than a walnut).

Clearly, this group is not representative of the average breast cancer case.  Hygienic therapy for cancer is a radical idea these days and tends to attract younger people, or older, desperate people who have already been through the works.  In every one of my simple cases the tumors were reabsorbed by the body during the thirty days of water fasting and the client left happy.

Except one.  I think I should describe this unsuccessful case, this “dirty case,” so my readers get a more balanced idea of how fearsome cancer really isn’t if the sick person can clearly resolve to get better and has no problem about achieving wellness.

Marie was an artisan and musician from Seattle who grew up back East in an upper-middle class dysfunctional family.  She was in her late twenties.  She had been sexually abused by an older brother, was highly reactive, and had never been able to communicate honestly with anyone except her lesbian lover (maybe, about some things).

Three years prior to coming to see me Marie had been medically diagnosed as having breast cancer and had been advised to have immediate surgery.  She ignored this advice; Marie never told her friends, said nothing to her family and tried to conceal it from her lover because she did not want to disrupt their life together.

On her own, she did begin eating a Macrobiotic diet.  In spite of this diet, the tumor grew, but grew very slowly.  After two years the tumor was discovered by her lover, who after a year of exhausting and upsetting arguments, forced Marie to seek treatment.  Since Marie adamantly refused to go the conventional medical route, she ended up on my doorstep as a compromise.

By this time the tumor was the size of a fist and had broken through the skin of the left breast.  It was very ugly, very hard.  Biokinesiology showed the usual deadly triangle and other associated organ weakneses typical of cancer.  Marie began fasting on water with colonics and poultices and bodywork and counseling and supplements.  At the end of the water fast, Marie looked much healthier, with
