Fighting Cancer Naturally

My mother was diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma in December of 2007. Since then we have tried chemotherapy with two different oncologists from St. Luke's and the tumors doubled in size with each bout of chemotherapy.

Now we are trying to use natural methods in fighting her disease: raw carrot juice, guyabano (Soursop) and orange juice. I have never heard of anyone dying from eating natural food, so we have given this a shot. It's been a month since we started this regimen and I can happily write down that she has fewer "down" episodes and is much stronger than when she was undergoing chemotherapy.

I don't know about doctors and their reluctance for people to try natural remedies. Well, the pharmaceutical industry is indeed a lucrative business and I doubt if any doctor or hospital in that matter will prescribe guyabano for cancer.
