My intuition and persistence definitely saved my life. The tests revealed that the tumor markers and liver values were extremely elevated, so the doctor ordered an ultrasound.

Three years ago, I came to Hippocrates with the beginnings of breast cancer.

Since I carried the genetic expression for cancer ”the demise of my predecessors” I was already following a plant-based regimen.

After this experience I knew that I needed to get off the drugs. A few months later, and much to my shock and dismay, I was diagnosed with a rare form of Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.

At the age of 32, single and still childless, my dream was nearly shattered when I was diagnosed with stage four Hodgkin’s disease, cancer of the lymp

I had surgery in 1999 and began investigating the causes of breast cancer and the best way to fight it.

I had low energy and difficulty walking because of flare-ups of arthritis. I couldn’t stay focused on much of anything.

In 1998, I had dislocated vertebras in my spinal cord after lifting a heavy box at work. Within months of the trauma I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue.
