Doctor’s Diary September 30, 2017: Cancer – the stop button

(Snippets from the frontline)

Cancer:  The stop button

Body cells multiply allowing growth and development.  Some cells grow slowly, while others rapidly, all controlled by DNA.

When you cut your skin, a scab forms encasing the wound allowing cells to proliferate and heal from below.  The scab falls off and DNA tells the cells to stop dividing, completing the healing process.

Cancers are cells that continue to multiply out of control, forming tumor masses extracting nutrients and starving normal functioning cells.

Genetic engineering research is on the verge of finding the DNA “stop button” including the ones lost in cancer cells.  Cured.

But cancer treatment and prevention is a huge industry.  Could this technology be hidden or suppressed to sustain profits?  Please be mindful of this potential tactic. 

Hopefully one day our great grandkids will ask…”What was cancer?”

    As a patient, I will say, I have been looking at the studies at clinicaltrials.gov, I do not see a single one even considering curing the cancer: neuroendocrine cancer starting in the pancrease (that tumor can no longer be seen) and metasticising all over.

    All I see in research is treatments that they will be able to sell you forever more. I’m a guinea pig and happened to hit a good immunotherapy study that has been holding my cancer in check for some time. As research, I get it free. But outside research, the retail price of the drug they give me is $130,000 per DOSE, and you need a dose once every three weeks! Per dose, not per year.

    Do not be so presumptive that no one would hold back a cure to boost profits. There was just a major lawsuit about one of the big drug companies doing just that, I think it was on an AIDS drug – not actually a cure, but well better than the drug they were selling but whose patent had not yet run out.

    At $130.000 per dose for my treatment — simply because they have a monopoly and there is no alternative to accomnpllush this — it is quite clear it is all about proifts. Mind you, the treatment will never cure the cancer, the most it does is hold it in check, you would have to pay for the rest of your life. With me, they are looking to see how long it will work.

    They want mere treatments, and hopefully ones they can sell you endlessly rather than for a short time. Again, I have seen nothing in research for a genetic engineering approach to cure the cancer.

    My daughter suffered from a cancer called Neuroblastoma at age 2. She also suffered from a paraneoplastic syndrome called Opsconus Myoclonus Syndrome. Her super wise immune system recognized the malfunction and attacked this tumor feverently. Unfortunately, her immune system couldn’t recognize the difference between her tumor and her cerebellum and attacked it as well. This caused unbelievably paralyzingly neurological symptoms which were more devastating than the cancer itself. But…her immune system contained her cancer and thankfully we were able to contain her immune system and stop the damage it was causing. She’s 19 today and living a “normal” life.

    I sent a letter to the President and Oprah (no I’m not kidding) about this phenomena I’d never heard of. The answer is within our own immune system….if we can only harness it. Big Pharma won’t allow it. I’m a medical professional myself…I hope and pray the motives are not as sinister as they seem.

    The answer to cancer is right underneath our noses. Like you Dr. Dorio, I hope and pray cancer is only a word we look up on Wikipedia and never experience its ugliness.

    Thanks for bringing this to light. Nice seeing you the other day!

  • Since each of us has had horrific cancer deaths among close friends and relatives, we would suspect no one would do such a thing.

    A cancer cure would be highly profitable for many years.
