Mike,
Obviously, each person is different. I have two friends who recently came through breast cancer, using both conventional and alternative (zeolite) treatments. Both had mastectomies and reconstructive surgery. One had chemo. The other had nothing but surgery, liquid zeolite (Natural Cellular Defense from Waiora) and Essential Daily Nutrients (Waiora's liquid nutrition).
(The one who did not take chemo had been on NCD for some months before learning of her cancer, so perhaps it didn't get as bad as it could have. She has scans which show the tumor shrank with no other treatment.)
In fact, these two women are talking about their experience this Tuesday evening (Apr 24, '07). If you'd like to watch/hear the talk via the internet, I may be able to set it up. Please let me know as soon as possible, since I don't know of anyone else interested online.
I with your friend the best!
Debbie
