My friend with Leukemia

Guest

After 6 months of Chemotherapy his cancer has not gone into remission. Crying or Very sad

His chance of living even two more years is less than 10%.
He will be receiving some type of stem cell transplant next month. I do not know what this is or how it works but I will find out more soon.
If this is successful his chance of survival rises to 40%.
Please pray for him.

My friend (his name is Monte) will be undergoing treatment with Arsenic Trioxide this next week. It is a highly dangerous compund that is used in reluctant cases of leukemia.
If anyone wants to read about it here is info on it:

Does anyone here know of anyone who has undergone this arsenic treatment? Until a few days ago I had never heard of it and I am curious if anyone knows anyone else who may have had success with this form of treatment.

Man, that is so horrible. I will be praying for him, his family and his doctors.

Norm,

My sister was diagnosed with AML, Acute M. Leukemia. She was in the hospital for 40 days and 40 nights exactly. She was on code blue and red for a lot of the time. She had so many other major complications during this time. Her Leukemia did go into remission after the first time, but her doctor from Greece decided to pound this stuff with 2 more rounds. It's wicked. I feel your pain. I thought I was going to lose my sister. It's been a battle ever since because she has seizures also and those darn medications lower the blood count, which is needed to fight back. I have a couple herbal and holistic medicine that worked wonders for my sister. It shot her blood count from 35,000 points to over 140,000 points. I think all I can say is God through the power of these herbs did that. I know the doctors laugh. It's really amazing how much of a health nut I have become now because of my wifes Fibro and CFIDS and my sisters cancer and seizures. I think a lot of these things can be controled with natural rememdies. Read Kevin Trudeau stuff and you will be floored. Your friend is in my prayers.

My friends Arsenic treatment did not do all they had hoped it would and he is in the hospital right now very very sick from Chemo treaments. Please pray for him. I am so afraid of losing another friend (one of my very best friends died a couple years ago from heart failure). Monte will be in the hospital for another 3 weeks having that Stem Cell procedure done.

RBV,
Thanks for that post! I totally believe in the use herbs and natural remedies also. Not sure what I think about Trudeau though. I have heard some pretty bad stuff about him.
