Breast Cancer, A Family Crisis!
Breast Cancer, The Family Crisis!
The impact of breast cancer on one’s life can be devastating and worrisome and in families where this problem is hereditary, it a cause of major concerns.
On my journey yesterday I came across one of my close relative "Rose", who over the last six months or so, has been undergoing treatment for this terrible disease of breast cancer. Breast cancer has ran havoc in Rose’s family, as she had seen many deaths, first it was her mother, followed by her aunt, then her grandma, followed by her own twin sister. Another member of her family too suffered this dreadful disease, that is her youngest sister, only a few years ago, she was close to death, now she is said to be in remission, a good sign, but no one knows what will be the final outcome.
For Rose, it has been a stressful time, yet she still smiled, while she explained to me her traumas. The impact on her life was clear to see, it was all over her face and in her movement, she aged, but she cherished life. She discussed with me the next stage of her treatment, this being the removal of the cancerous tissues from her breast, this being replaced with some fatty cellular tissues from other parts of her body, hence giving her having a new breast.
Cancer Statistic
In 2012, an estimated 14.1 million new cases of cancer occurred globally of which the four most common being lung, female breast, bowel and prostate cancer, together accounts for 4 in 10 of all cancers diagnosed. Scientific breakthrough over the years enable more people to survive, primarily in developed country, this said to be being approximately 70 percent and the longer term vision must be the total eradication of this dreadful disease.
For Rose it had been and still is, a long fight to survive this family curse and we wish her well in her battle against breast cancer.
There already is scientific proof that whole plant cannabis can be used as effective #cancer treatment without the side-effects that pharmaceutical drugs have.

I've never heard that about cannabis. I have been hearing about the benefits of the oil. Thanks for posting the links.
The family crisis which is spreading around the globe!
My mother inlaw had breast cancer, stage II and they took drastic measures and removed the breast (mastectomy), about 5 years later after annual check ups in the very best hospital in the country, she was diagnosed with lung cancer, stage IV.
Now, approx 4 years and 8 months after that diagnosis, she is slowly giving up the fight and the cancer is starting to win the fight.
For information on stopping cancer from spreading, please have a look at my post.
I hope Rose is doing well. May I also suggest that she regularly checks her vitamin D levels as low vitamin D level and caner have a very tight correlation.
