I do not know what a holistic doctor is, but I still wanted to repost this for =Lazeros because lately I've been afraid that I might have something similar to her dad's condition as well. The doctor I saw today said it is likely a lot of stress, so I feel a little better, but I know some people aren't as lucky. If you do not know lazeros, she is an amazing artist, and is going through something really terrible. Here is what she wrote:


"I need your help to combat this, please help link me with other people who can help!!

My dad has always been my lifeline... the only one I could trust and confide in...
But now it is time to reverse that lifeline, and I will be his.

The doctors are grim, but my dad is young, and we will fight this with everything we've got.
If you have been through this, are going through this, or know someone who is going through this, please contact me.

We are working with Chemo for the lungs (inoperable) and lazer radiation for the brain.
We are looking for safe holistic medicine as well. One article given to me from you guys has proved very very helpful...

If you are from the TN area, or can suggest any holistic doctors in middle TN, please note me for my email address. Even if you live far away, please ask your holistic doctors for recommendations in middle TN.

I will fight this with everything I have, and all of you are like a lifeline as well. any and all help is worth looking into.

other information that may be useful:
*It is stage IV - but limited to the lungs (largest size is about a quarter) it is considered stage IV due to its spreading to the brain, where we are currently treating 20 very small legions via lazer radiation.
*It is located on the outside of the lungs only, not in the throat or surrounding tissue.
*Friday will be the confirmation of whether it is non small cell or small cell.
*Currently he does not feel sick, just tired."
