Natural Medicine Options for Cancer

Recently, my family and Nicole's family has been plagued by several cases of Cancer. Nicole's mother is continuing to recover from breast cancer and my grandfather in Ohio is currently in a long battle with both prostate and bladder cancers. He has changed from wanting to give up (he is 84) to wanting to fight on. My mother and I urged him to at least see a new doctor. He has decided to use a combination of surgery and natural medicine to get past this current round of bladder cancer.

While working for Whole Foods as a buyer in the natural medicine and personal care areas I learned a good amount about natural remedies and found this health forum to be of particular good use as a reference and for support. I find myself revisiting Natural Medicine Talk now as I try to help family members get though this tough period of life. Next week I will be heading out to Ohio to be with my grandfather as he goes back into surgery on Wednesday.
