Kate’s Journey

In 2012 Kate was diagnosed with Acute Lobular Invasive Grade 3 Breast Cancer with a high pleomorphic presentation. After undergoing a mastectomy, Kate refused chemotherapy and instead turned to the Gerson Therapy and other integrative treatments to heal herself.

Kate was not always health conscious

• • 53 years old, mom of four, type A personality
  • Busy raising her kids and building a business
  • In an abusive relationship
  • Drank gallons of tea and coffee a day
  • Lived off her kids leftovers and chocolate

Getting the diagnosis

• • Started experiencing problems with her breast augmentation.
  • Symptoms included ectopic heartbeat, arthritis, decline in vision, menstrual changes, migraines, breast pain
  • Couldn’t loose weight even with extreme exercise
  • Tired and fatigued
  • Changes in personality
  • Her cat continually patted her right breast at night. Found a gritty lump around where the cat kept patting
  • Mammogram came back negative. Sought a second opinion. Ultrasound revealed many tumors
  • Biopsy confirmed breast cancer. Was advised to have a mastectomy and possible chemo

First tried conventional medicine

• • MRI and full bone scan
  • Surgery removed right breast
  • Wounds weren’t healing. Complications with surgery

The learned an alternative approach to healing

• • Her husband found Dr. Patrick Vickers of Gerson Therapy Clinic
  • Kate took two books into hospital – “The China Study” and Max Gerson’s “Results of 50 Cases”
  • Kate went from doing nothing to drinking 30 juices a day plus coffee enemas
  • Wounds healed beautifully
  • Added Mistletoe injections to the Gerson Therapy
  • Added the B-17 tablet protocol with Liposomal Vitamin C
  • Takes Freeing the Sun (Chinese herb) to clear methylation pathway in liver and metabolize estrogen

It was a journey filled with discovery

• • Breasts need iodine. Fluoride, chlorine and bromine promote iodine deficiency
  • Alcohol switches on the breast cancer gene
  • Make-up, perfume and air fresheners elevate estrogen
  • IVF increases your breast cancer risk
  • Refined, white sugar impacts eyesight
  • Diets high in animal protein, reduce T-lympocytes that kill tumors, viruses and fungus

And the results are…

• • Eyesight improved
  • No more joint pain, pimples, sinusitis or atopic heartbeat
  • During detox, Kate’s abdomen became swollen with gas. She experienced toxic headaches, chills and fevers as her body dealt with toxic overload
  • Came off mistletoe injections to enable body to naturally produce an immune response
  • High temperatures and flea bites were signs Kate’s immune response was improving
  • Oncologist recommended Kate remove her ovaries. She decided to keep them and bring her estrogen down naturally
  • Asked her Healing Code to put her ovaries to sleep. Instant menopause without a single hot flush

Kate’s views on conventional ‘Gold Standard’ medical care in the UK

• • The UK public health system does mastectomies differently – all nodes in the arm are removed, even if they are not cancerous
  • Can’t customize treatment in public system
  • Recommended treatment protocols often based on opinion, not evidence
  • Cancer charities work with drug companies creating a conflict of interest
  • Public are desensitized to cancer treatment. Advertisements make people believe they need to be bald and sick before they can heal
  • Trained in the Beckers Health Belief Model – a patient must deem the risk so great that they accept the treatment
  • The UK’s cancer act of 1939 – anyone who advises a patient on alternative ‘cures’ for cancer will go to prison for 3 months
  • Ignorance is no excuse – medical practitioners and dietitians have a duty of care to educate themselves
