You have got to pick up the book "Hope-managing cancer in mind-sized bites" by Vicki Gerard. It's fabulous. The author is a cancer survior and a cancer counselor. She was also given a few months, she had it mastatized all over her body, even in her bones- and she beat it. Tell them also to cut out all refined sugar from her diet and look into Essiac tea at essiac-info.com
