I was diagnosed with prostate cancer in late
January 2008, with a PSA of 9.8 and two positives
of twelve biopsies by my urologist. Before my
meeting with my urologist, my research began.
Five days later, after looking at all the treatments
and their side effects, I read Larry Pratts book.
This led me to the Rapha clinic (Hope4Cancer) as
first choice treatment.
One of the things that I was impressed with, was
Dr. Tony calling me and giving me confident
advice and answering all my questions. He made
me feel more in control than my Doctor in Spokane. I have to say, I have
never gone anywhere for ten days that I didn't want to go, but I knew I had to
give Sono-Photo Dynamic Therapy a try.
I arrived and found the preliminary medical exams more thorough than in
the US. The food was really good if you enjoy good organic, healthy,
healing food. I was impressed that one or more of the doctors was always
there to answer questions. Dr. H. is my favorite. The treatments at Rapha
(Hope4Cancer) complement each other.
After ten days and a second color doppler sonogram there was significant
improvement in my cancer areas. I had about 40% reduction in vascularity,
and a significant reduction in PSA. Not to be skeptical, I had arranged to
have another opinion by a doctor in Ventura, CA. My second opinion doctor
also uses state of the art color sonograms as part of his diagnosis. He
performed 6 TARGETED biopsies on me at staged areas of concern. Lab
results on the following Tuesday revealed NO CANCER!!!!
The staff at Hope for Cancer Institute is really supportive, professional, and
full of knowledge of alternative and medical treatments. I was really
impressed with Laura, the physical therapist at Rapha clinic. All of the
nurses were very nice.

My name is Lisa Rodarti.
I live in a beautiful seaside village in southern California.
I am a healthy mother of three.
At the age of 38 I was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer. After a
mastectomy and 6 rounds of chemotherapy, I was assured that I had done all
that I could to rid myself of the disease. I never really felt confident about
the chemo treatment, often asking my doctor if there were other things I
should do... dietary changes, meditation, etc.
My oncologist just smiled and said "no." After one year, my cancer spread to
my lymph nodes and mediastinum. Now, I was classified stage 4, and given
the terrible survival statistics. I tried some alternative treatments including
dietary changes, Chinese medicine, cancer vaccine, and a traditional short
round of chemo. This time, I stopped the chemo early, as it just did not feel
right. In three months I was in remission! However, a year later I would be
battling this cancer again.
My Doctors told me it was very unlikely that I would ever be in remission
again, and that I should prepare myself for 8-10 months of hard core
chemotherapy and 6 weeks of daily radiation!
This time I headed straight down to the Hope4Cancer Institute to be treated
by Dr. Tony Jimenez. I was treated for 8 weeks, with easy IV infusions,
hyperthermia, dietary changes, herbs, supplements and intense immune
program. To the shock of my California doctors, I was in complete
remission in 5 months.
I was healthy, happy and with a head still full of hair. I believe that Dr. Tony's
non toxic treatment has put me in remission for the long haul.
Dr. Tony is a very knowledgeable and caring Doctor. His staff was terrific. I
highly recommend Dr. Tony's services in anyone's fight in cancer! If I
should need to battle this disease again, I know exactly where I will go! I
know of many more survival stories from treatments at Hope4Cancer
Institute than from my own oncologist's office!

I, Susan Lee White, of New York, six months after treatment at the
wonderful Rapha Clinic, with its million dollar view, blue, gold and
silver sunsets in the Playas de Tijuana, Mexico, under the excellent
care of Tony Jimenez, M.D. and Horacio de la Cruz, M.D., feel as if I
never had the 8 cm tumor and cyst in the uterus. I was healed of an
otherwise impossible situation which could have led to death.
It was the electromagnetic therapies, including the Plasma Ray,
Regenacell and Rife therapies in the unforgettable three weeks of
treatment. I have resumed my normal activities. I noticed the good
effects of the Poly MVA infusions on my condition and also a
previous herniated disc in the lower back, requiring me to limit my
activities. I now walk without the cane, except for during hiking or
traveling. I noticed my fingernails are strengthened also.
I highly recommend Dr. Tony Jimenez and his advanced knowledge
of biological medicine and the clinic. I am following the program he
set for me as well as my vegan diet, with no sugar or diary products
with the exception of a little goat or sheep cheese once in a while.
God Bless Dr. Tony and the Rapha Clinic, its staff and its promise met
in "Hope4Cancer."

My name is Sylvia Lomota Flanagan. I am a
licensed therapist, herbalist, and yoga instructor.
In May 2004, because I had not been feeling well
and my blood pressure was extremely high
(240/160), I went to the emergency room at Sharp
Memorial Hospital. There they performed
numerous diagnostic tests including a CAT scan
of my head and chest. The chest scan revealed a
mediastinal mass of approximately 9cm. They
gave me a diagnosis of Thymoma and
recommended a needle biopsy. The biopsy
indicated that the mass was encapsulated and contained cancer cells. Not
having a fear of the disease and relying on my knowledge of the human
body and the immune system and cell structure, I began treatment with
natural therapies. I treated myself like a devoted patient.
I was born and educated in Romania and the United States. I had studied and
read about anti-tumor protein shots and wanted to explore that treatment. In
January 2005, a chiropractor specializing in energy work, referred me to Dr.
Tony Jimenez. At my first appointment with Dr. Jimenez he reviewed all of
my medical records including the results of the CAT scan and follow-up
biopsy. Naturally, I had many questions and after listening to Dr. Jimenez I
had complete confidence in his recommended treatment regimen. I started
on the anti-tumor protein shots as well as Poly MVA. After awhile I started
oxygen/ozone therapy and he recommended I use it on a daily basis for a
few months. I'm feeling better than ever! I look healthier and I feel stronger
with much more energy. I have increased stamina for exercising, hiking,
gymnastics, and yoga as well as my demanding work schedule.
I am confident by the way I feel, that the tumor has shrunk and the cancer
cells have been eradicated, this is supported by the results of a recent CAT
scan.
Dr. Tony Jimenez is a knowledgeable, trustworthy, loving, caring
physician. He has my highest respect and I truly feel he is one of the most
devoted doctors in the world in the field of oncology at this time .

Dr. Antonio Jimenez is a God-send. I was about to be mutilated by surgery
and radiation at the Princess Margaret Hospital, Toronto, Ontario for a
cancerous tumor on the left side of my neck. The head & neck surgeon and
the oncologist at that hospital said I could expect to be temporarily or maybe
permanently speech impaired; also permanent deformity in the lower lip.
They also made it clear that I had no choice in the matter unless I wanted to
risk my life. Within three weeks of diagnosis I was given a date for the
surgery and told time was not on my side.
I prayed a lot because these doctors almost scared the life out of me. Then at
the right time I met Dr Antonio at the March 1999 annual Total Health
Convention in Toronto, where I heard him lecture on alternative methods of
dealing with cancer. My acquaintances that were present at this lecture all
agreed that what Dr Antonio presented was very interesting and worth
trying. So it was that I went to Tijuana for Dr Antonio's treatment.
I found exactly what was missing at the Princess Margaret - an approach
that tries to deal with the cause of illness. (I was horrified to discover that the
Princess Margaret Hosp wouldn't do more thorough tests to at least try and
find out what could be the possible causes of my tumor.
Under the care of Dr Antonio, very extensive blood tests were done, which
revealed a week immune system - low T-cell count in my case. It's now 1
year since I've received 3 weeks of treatment (immuno-modulating IV,
Ultra-Violet Blood Irradiation, Mineral-Vitamin IV, Aloe Vera and Cesium
Chloride IV, etc) from Dr Antonio, whose advice is no surgery and no
radiation or chemo unless my health deteriorates.
Well, I had a very thorough physical examination in Nov/99, which
revealed no problems and a normal immune system although the tumor in
my neck is still there (maybe a bit shrunken). Since I returned home after Dr
Antonio's treatment, my energy level is better. I've continued my normal
busy lifestyle. My husband wanted to know where I get the energy to do all
the things I do.
A million thanks to Dr Antonio Jimenez for saving me from the devastating
effects of surgery & radiation.
It sure is a comforting feeling to know you will be my doctor for life. Thanks
very much. Take care & God Bless
Love,

Hi Dr. Tony, I hope that you and yours are well.
I am very pleased to inform you that my last scan
on August 8 did not show any cancer. My
oncologist and radiologist that performed the
RFA procedure are likewise very pleased.
Per Pam's request, attached are my scan results
and recent blood work. She said that you would
review these and develop the next phase of my
treatment program.
As I told you in my July 22 e-mail, I do not want to
cut back on my current program even though my scan did not show any
cancer. I do not know what you will propose but I have numerous reasons to
stay the current course. Some of these have actually happened to me and I
don't want them to happen again. CT scans are the indicator used to check
for any bladder cancer but these scans have many flaws. I am sure that you
know the things that I am going to bring up about CT scans but these are
personal experiences.
As you know, a scan report is only as good as the images on the day of the
scan and the person reading the images. When I was diagnosed, a scan was
done and the report came back that the cancer was confined to my bladder.
As it turned out, the cancer was in my lymph nodes and my liver at that time.
Also, as you know, a tumor has to be large enough to show up on a CT scan,
smaller ones do not show up. I had three lesions in my liver. Through
chemo, the largest shrunk and was removed. The other two apparently
shrunk and did not show up on my scans. I asked the doctor about the other
two and was told that I was cancer free. When I had my recurrence in March
2008, the doctor said that the tumor was probably there all along but was too
small to show up on a CT. It took three scans after I was declared cancer free
for that tumor to show up on my CT.
Next, as you also know, there are no tumor markers on numerical indicators
such as PSA reading for bladder cancer. Bladder cancer patients can have
multiple tumors in different organs that do not show up on a CT scan. As
above, the tumors have to be large enough to show on a scan, I don't want to
take that chance.

I could give other examples of things that have happened on my cancer
journey, but the bottom line is that, thanks to you, your staff and
Hope4Cancer, I feel better than I have in months and even though I got a
good scan report, it does not mean that I am cancer free. If you are
considering cutting back on any of my program, please reconsider and let
me get a few clear scans behind me before reducing my treatments. For the
first time since cancer was found on my liver I feel like I have a chance to
beat this monster. Continuing my current protocol will help me to continue
having this feeling.
As always, thank you for everything.
During the hardest trial of my life, Dr Tony was always a source of
encouragement and hope for Vanessa and I both, and I can't express
how much even the subtleties meant to us.
Until you go through something like this, you don't realize how much
those things mean.
God has put Dr Tony in a position to minister to patients and their
families during their time of need, and I know that is both an awesome
opportunity and responsibility.
I foremost pray that you and your patients will seek God's will, and
that He will provide you with the direction and discretion you need in
each of those critical situations.
I pray for God's continued blessings in your life.
In Christ,

I was diagnosed with colon cancer in September
of 2004.
The recommendation of two different doctors,
here in California, was cut and dry, remove the
two massive tumors, a colostomy bag, radiation
and chemotherapy. I refused to accept life with a
colostomy bag, and their treatments. I have
always been a believer in Alternative Medicine,
and after meeting with doctors in this country my
gut feeling was that I definitely needed
Alternative care. I know it was divine guidance
that led me to Dr. Tony. Before I knew I had cancer, I was fortunate enough
to listen to a radio show on Pacifica Radio, KPFK. It was about the Cancer
Control Society.
We toured seven different clinics and it led me to choose the Hope4Cancer
Clinic, Playas de Tijuana, Mexico and Dr. Antonio Jimenez. His approach
was confident, optimistic, loving, and caring.
Dr. Tony not only saved my life, but he saved the quality of my life. Dr. Tony
put together a skilled team of surgeons, lead by Dr. Antonio Gomez and
himself. It has been nine months, and I am cancer free and do not have a
colostomy bag! He worked hard to give me back my whole complete life
and I am now able to do all the things I did before having cancer. I didn't
know how sick I was until I started feeling better. My fast recovery is the
result of the excellent care I received from all the doctors, nurses and staff
who lovingly took part in my healing.
Eternal love and gratitude,

Dear Dr. Jimenez
I have been a patient of Dr. Jimenez since December 2000 when I initially
sought treatment. I came to him as an alternative intervention in conjunction
with conventional treatment for breast cancer. I found out about Dr. Jimenez
through Life Works personal and professional consultant, Gail Kawanami,
who met him at a professional meeting and was extremely impressed with
his approach to Integrative Medicine.
I am a believer in Jesus and the power of the Word of God. Dr. Jimenez was
instrumental in working with the Lord to create my healing and recovery
from breast cancer.
I feel blessed to have found a medical doctor who is open to the role of
spirituality in healing and receptive to team working in conventional
medical practices. He was consistent in working out arrangements to meet
with me whenever possible through his home health program.
He initially proposed the in patient clinic program and I was unable to afford
the fees. We then customized a program for my needs where he developed a
program of supplements based on my lab test. He reinforced a health diet,
emphasizing leafy greens, fruits, nuts, aloe, flax seed, and organic food, if
possible.
He has been and continues to be conscientious and caring. I truly feel that he
gives me and my health status attention and is dedicated to my long term
wellness.
The role of faith and positive thinking and bringing about healing is an
integral part of his protocol. I truly feel that my active commitment to prayer
work, along with other specific key prayer support, scripture on tape for
hours on end, speaking health to my body, including the Word, and
visualizing played a powerful role in catalyzing my healing process.
My friends saw a dramatic shift in my feelings and thought processes. From
the time I found out about the diagnosis to when I heard about Dr. Jimenez,
he was such an encouragement in reminding me there was hope, which
motivated my friends to be willing to drive me to Mexico for consultations
with Dr. Jimenez.

I feel thrilled and grateful because it was the beginning of the manifestation
of my healing. I would be thoroughly enthused to recommend Dr. Jimenez
to anyone who is seeking a conscientious medical doctor specializing in an
integrative medical approach and is committed to his or her full recovery.
My name is Betty Anderson, I am 77 years old. Three years ago, in
2002, I learned that I had BREAST CANCER, today I got my blood
work and Chest X-Ray reports back from my oncologist and she said
it could not be more perfect, my cancer is still in remission!
Let me back up, when I first learned I had cancer I did research and
found a Doctor named Dr. Tony Jimenez. He turned out to be my
angel and told me all the right things to do. I did NOT take radiation or
chemotherapy, but took a wonderful product called Poly-MVA
together with Dr. Tony's protocol; as well as strict diet of fruits and
vegetables, fish, organic chicken and no dairy.
For 3 years I have not had any sick days other than a slight cold as
everyone gets. I am down to a maintenance dose of ½ teaspoon of
Poly-MVA every day together with Dr. Tony's ongoing program.
I feel Dr. Tony was a gift from God.
P.S. By the way, when I first started taking Poly-MVA and Dr. Tony's
treatment it knocked the cancer into remission in 24 days.

I have been fighting breast cancer since 2004
when I had my first lumpectomy, a new tumor
would appear every 6-8 months and again I would
have it removed always fearing the cancer would
spread to my vital organs.
In July 2006 I decided that my best option to win
the fight against cancer was to go to Hope4Cancer
Institute, under the medical direction of Dr. Tony
Jimenez.
It has now been 8 months and for the first time since my history of breast
cancer, a recent mammogram and ultrasound shows that I am cancer free!
The breast tumor marker (CA 27.29) is also normal.
This was a huge relief and I am very happy.
I am feeling healthy and I know that I have won the fight!

Dear Dr. Tony,
I met Dr. Tony in August in search of someone that could help my
friend. I knew her traditional treatment was not going well and 2 days
after Thanksgiving she was told that she probably wouldn't make it to
Christmas. Her brothers had bought her a trip to Vegas to bring in the
year 2000 and the feeling was that she couldn't get out of bed and that
she probably wouldn't make it untill then. We called Dr. Tony on Dec.
3rd and told him our situation, not asking for a cure but for some more
time. He said I could give you more time and more quality of time.
So on Dec. 7th we left for a 2 weeks stay. I could not believe it! Within
three days I saw color come back into her face and energy back into
her weak body. When she came home she was like a whole new
person. She made her trip to Vegas, which made her family very
happy. And she continued to feel good and have good results. She
lived until March 29 out of bed and on her feet until the end. I truly
believe we could have actually beat this cancer if we would have
come sooner and wouldn't have been battling against four years of
radiation, chemo, and a morphine pump. I could not believe the great
results we had in such a short period of time.
Dr. Tony gave my friend an opportunity to take a trip of a lifetime,
three more months out of bed, and strong instead have in bed and
weak. Imagine what we could of done if we had gone sooner before
her body was totally destroyed by all of those poisons. Don't make the
mistake we did. Do something now! I know it is scary, but believe me
the results you can get are going to be worth it.

about your clinic and the Vitamin C Therapy that turned my little boy's life
(and ours) around.
We had been searching for so long for an alternative approach that would
help relieve his chronic sinusitis and the thought of having to resort to
surgery was terrifying to us but was beginning to look like our only
alternative. The distress of seeing him suffer so much from the his difficulty
breathing, especially at night, was more than I could take. It has now been
nearly three months since Christopher received the treatment and he
continues to breathe freely and is free congestion, allowing him to sleep
restfully and undisturbed through the night. We are grateful to you for these
wonderful results and for the fact that we no longer have to consider surgery.
I could never thank you enough for your warmth, compassion and

Dear Dr. Tony,
Ray and I thank the Lord for each one of you who have remembered us in
prayer and through the many cards and letters we received while we at the
Hope4Cancer Institute in Tijuana, Mexico. The clinic staff was so
impressed with all the love we received through the mail. Our testimony to
the staff was that we were just members of the body of Christ and that we've
known these Christians for many years. This gave us many opportunities to
share the love of Christ with them. The Lord has truly said "by this shall all
men know that you are my disciples if you have love for one another".
Dr. Tony Jimenez who is my doctor impressed us with his experience in
alternative medicine and his thoroughness in evaluating my situation. We
also found him to be a very dear brother in the Lord. He shared with us that
he had a "powerful salvation experience with the Lord 9 years ago".
Because of our fellowship with him during these 3 weeks, he felt that we
were there just for him. He indicated that he had been too involved with his
medical practice and that our being there was "monumental" for him
spiritually". After leaving Mexico, we spent 3 days with the Balzano family
which was so enjoyable. I especially enjoyed some sweet times with
Brookes mother, Virginia. Brooke is without a doubt "the hostess with the
mostest". We had a whole afternoon with Zoe and also visited with Lisa and
Clay. The Balzano home was a beautiful retreat for us after Mexico. We also
met once with the saints in Thousand Oaks for the Lords Table.
We arrived home June 13 and are continuing a home treatment for a month
prescribed by Dr. Jimenez but have fallen behind. My medical evaluation is
too soon to tell. My oncologist at Henry Ford Hospital is very supportive in
what we are doing.

Ray and I have been very comforted by Jobs' experience. Sometimes the
Lord allows us to go through these trials of life similar to Job. The Lord said
to satan, "have you considered my servant Job, that he was perfect, upright,
feared God and turned away from "evil". Job 2:3 satan answered the Lord
and said "touch his flesh and he will curse you to your face". Like Job, Ray
and I KNOW that we have had so much of Gods blessing in our lives and as
Job responded "what, shall we receive good at the hand of the Lord and shall
we not receive evil?" We have definitely examined ourselves and do realize
that we do come up short and are so thankful that we are in the continuous
cleansing of the blood of Christ but God is faithful and righteous in all His
doings and will complete the work He's begun in us.
The Apostle Paul was given "a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan, to
buffet him that he wouldn't be exalted above measure "because of his high
revelation. As Paul did, we are experiencing the grace of God in the
infirmity of our flesh.
According to 1 Thess.chaps.4 & 5,the answer for most of our problems is for
the Lord to return. 1 Thess.5:9,10 "for God has not appointed us to wrath but
to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us, that whether
we wake or sleep we should live together with Him. Wherefore comfort
yourselves together and edify one another, even as you also do." This word
from Paul is most definitely a comfort and hope to me.

Hello, I am the mother of a wonderful son,
Johann, who in May 2006 at the age of 20 was
diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma of the
liver. Needless to say, our family was in total
shock. We were preparing to send him off to
college, not medical treatment!!!
We were
horrified to learn that Johann had a tumor mass
covering the entire left lobe of his liver. The
doctors were also baffled in that this is a very rare
form of cancer seen in caucasian men in the West.
Johann had never had Hepatitis A or B or C, had
never taken drugs, was a clean, exemplary young man heading off to
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University to study Aeronautical Engineering.
Johann is very brilliant and was looking forward to his future. This news
totally blew us away. What was more, our insurance provider, due to the
complexity and rarity of his situation refused any kind of treatment. They
could only offer me a box of tissue.
We were not about to give up on our son and decided we'd have to do the
fighting for his treatment. I begged our provider to get us a referral to a
teaching university hospital immediately!!! Johann did have surgery by a
top liver surgeon in San Francisco. After healing from surgery we were
advised to visit with this university's top liver cancer specialist (supposed to
be one of the top in the world). Johann and I went to visit with him with
anticipation that he could offer something. He offered NOTHING except
doxirubicin, a chemo treatment that would make Johann very sick and only
offer maybe 10% chance of help. He despairingly told us the cancer would
return in other places and eventually take Johann's life. We refused the
doxirubicin.
Another treatment was offered to Johann, Nexavar, a chemo like drug in a
pill form. By the 5th day, Johann was so excruciatingly miserable with burn
like symptoms and welts and severe constipation that we stopped it
altogether. He peeled for 3 weeks after only taking Nexavar for 5 days!!
We moved on to another teaching hospital/university and worked with a
very bright and caring Intervention Radiologist. He offered Johann 1
treatment of Radioembolization.

Johann had that treatment in February 2007. The CT scan taken 3 months
later showed good results, but you can only have 1 of those treatments and
so the next plan was chemoembolization. However, since Johann was
feeling very well and really wanted to go to college, we decided to let him go
and fulfill his dream in September 2007. We kept watch of his situation by
regular CT scans and lab tests. Johann did pretty well, but when he came
home in March 2008 for Spring break, he looked pale. His blood work
revealed he had some slow internal bleeding going on at the end of the
esophagus. He was hospitalized and had a partial spleen embolization to
cut off 1/2 the blood supply to the spleen. He had to withdraw from college
and lost 1 semester of credit. The IR doctor could not perform the
chemoembolization because Johann's bilirubin was sky high. He felt that
he'd missed his "window of opportunity". Johann began to decline in
strength, appearance and health. He also began to retain a lot of fluid.
Johann is 5'11" and normally very slender (usual weight is 155lbs). But
by early July 2008 he looked like he was about 6 months pregnant even
though he was losing a lot of body fat and weight. His complexion was
slightly yellowing, his belly swelling, his appetite up and down, and his
energy waning. He was a very sick/dying boy. His oncologist had hospice
call me. I told her, thanks, but no thanks we were NOT GIVING UP!!
We had been working with an Alternative Medicine Doctor all along out of
Tulsa, OK who supplied Johann with vitamin supplements and we'd
modified our diet to strengthen Johann's immune system as much as
possible. I believe that this was a stabilizing force for Johann. Yet, we also
knew that without a doubt, our son needed immediate treatment or he would
not live many more months. I began to research alternative medicine clinics
outside the USA.
During my research I came across one Clinic in Tijuana that looked very
good and we actually went through the application process for admission.

I heard about Ralph Moss Reports and read his evaluation on alternative
medicine clinics in Tijuana and Western Europe. We became very
interested in "hyperthermia" treatments used in Germany. When I inquired
of the German clinic's cost, etc. the representative highly recommended
Dr. Tony Jimenez. I called Dr. Jimenez and was surprised when he actually
returned my call and spoke at length with me about my son. I was drawn to
his warmth, compassion and commitment to help us. Something we hadn't
felt much of in the United States. Looking over the Hope4Cancer website I
was excited about the treatments offered. Our family all agreed this was the
place for Johann. Due to the complexity and severity of Johann's diagnosis
our family had been praying all along that God would lead us to the exact
place where Johann's particular type of cancer could be treated.
Johann and I have been at Hope4Cancer now for 3 weeks. The entire staff,
doctors, nurses, cooks, and support care have been extremely caring and
professional. Dr. Tony has a wonderful staff.
Yesterday we received the amazing news about Johann...after only 3 weeks
of treatment his edema and fluid retention are all gone, his bilirubin is
coming down, his liver and spleen are smaller, and the most exciting
result....the blood supply to the liver tumor is now 95% cut off!!!! We are
ecstatic!!!! We will continue the home treatment and expect ongoing
improvement.
THANK YOU Dr. Tony Jimenez and the entire staff. We thank God every
day for leading us to Hope4Cancer Clinic...Rapha "healing" Clinic. We are
very hopeful that Johann will indeed be cancer FREE and be able to pursue
his education, career, life...his dreams.
We love you and thank you!!!

My name is Cathy. I am a 52 yr old female, and I
had always been in perfect health. In October of
2007, I was diagnosed with stage 4 primary lung
cancer which moved to my liver, left hip, and
formed a lesion in my brain. While I was in the
hospital to be diagnosed, I was started on chemo
which resulted in a hospital stay for 8 days. After
I came out of the hospital I was immediately
started on full brain radiation as well as radiation
to my hip, followed by 5 more chemotherapy
treatments. Radiation ended in November 2007, chemotherapy ended
February 2008. I tolerated both well, my biggest noticeable problem was
that I lost all of my hair. In April 2008, my hair started growing back and I
had no other symptoms from then through the middle of 2008. In May of
2008, a pet scan determined that all was stable except for cancer in my liver,
which was increasing. In July 2008, I developed leg pains, had an
ultrasound, which indicated blood clots in my leg; more symptoms of
cancer. This resulted in a stay at the hospital for a few days, blood thinner
medication, and the Doctor saying he wanted to start a second line of
chemotherapy. Since I had already been given the best chemotherapy, a
second line was the only option, but was told it would not be as good as my
first round, and not as likely to work. I had been researching alternative
medicine since November 2007, and had changed my diet, started
supplements, eliminated meat and dairy. At this point I decided to not do
the second line of chemo because it didn't offer much hope. My family and I
had checked cancer clinics in Mexico and the USA and in the latter part of
July, made contact with hospitals and clinics in Mexico. I narrowed my
search to 5 clinics. I came to Mexico and interviewed and talked to those 5
clinics which resulted in my family and I deciding on Hope4Cancer
Institute. We felt Hope4Cancer offered the best and most unique treatment
for the best possible results.

The staff at Hope4Cancer Institute is very good. I was pleased that I got to
spend a lot of time with the doctors. They diagnosed an illness I was not
previously aware of. The dietary staff, nursing staff, and the entire staff was
easy to work with and very accommodating. Thanks to Hope4Cancer
Institute, I feel better now than I did before.

Victor was 3 1/2 years old when he came to our clinic with a diagnosis of an
aggressive recurrent brain tumor (High Grade Astrocytoma) that had been
surgical removed twice, once on each side of the brain.
Shortly after the second surgery a new tumor appeared and the doctors in
South Africa offered little hope even if chemotherapy, radiation and a third
surgery were to be performed. The Hope4Cancer medical team
took on this very tough challenged provided the patient with a non-toxic
treatment approach. Victor is now 4 years post-treatment and living a
normal life and enjoying the company of his elder sister and younger
brother together with his loving parents.
