In four books, Lorna Jordan shares the events leading up to her disease; her traditional breast cancer experience; her search for alternative medicine which will improve her health; and her journey into good health. Book One, "In the Beginning," presents evidence of Lorna's developing ill health. Beginning in adolescence, Lorna's exposure to mercury, antibiotics, and DDT contribute to her poor health. Later, in early adulthood, she begins to have mood shifts and menstrual disorders. When she takes birth-control pills, Loma develops depression and benign breast disease. Finally, breast cancer arrives. Book Two, "Shock and Despair," presents Lorna's physical and mental anguish from her lumpectomy, the reading of the pathology report, and a mastectomy. This book reveals the problems Loma must face after cancer: fear and isolation, rejection by her husband, reactions of family and friends, watching for recurrence, and finding hope for the future. Book Three, "Other Treatments" is Lorna's search for non­ traditional medicine which will rebuild her immune system, help overcome her allergies, and fight her cancer through nutritional approaches to health. Fighting fungi, building immunity, removing mercury, and cleansing the colon are important components of this book. In Book Four, "Getting Well," Loma meets Dr. A.V. Constantini, a world specialist in diseases caused by fungi and their toxins. From him she seeks to verify what she has discovered on her own about the causes of breast cancer and ways to prevent its return. Lorna learns to practice meditation to help heal herself. Unexpectedly, she develops a ruptured appendix and diseased gallbladder; removal of these diseased organs improves her general health immensely. Lorna and her husband share a candlelight dinner together on the fifth-year anniversary of her breast cancer. An epilogue in the form of a letter to other women encourages them to fight on and to consider the food they eat as a very important component in their fight against breast cancer. A brief postscript discusses Dr. Guenther Enderlein's postulate of Mucor racemosus Fresen as the cause of breast cancer. ALL OUR DAYS ARE NUMBERED-­ JOURNEY THROUGH BREAST CANCER WITH TRADITIONAL AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE A Creative Thesis Submitted In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts. Tomma Lou Maas University of Northern Iowa May 1996 11 This study by: Tamma Lou Maas Entitled: All Our Days Are Numbered-Journey Through Breast Cancer with Traditional and Alternative Medicine has been approved as meeting the thesis requirement for the Degree of Master of Arts Date J//17/?C. Date r: John W. Swope, Thesis Committee Member 111 FOREWORD When I agreed to have this book written about me, I hoped it would bring courage and faith to women who know they must keep vigilance regarding breast cancer. My purpose is to share the events leading up .to my own disease and demonstrate the kind of wellness ~hich, I believe, most woman can achieve. Many of the methods I have used and the treatments I have sought in the struggle to overcome cancer and regain my health will not be found in the offices of mainstream medical practitioners. Often I have had to introduce these ideas to my doctors, and I have persisted with my use of them. Although it has been only five years since my lumpectomy, radical mastectomy, and chemotherapy, there has been no recurrence of my disease. This is true, I believe, because I have diligently struggled to improve a weak immune system and reduce severe allergies which have contributed to my poor health. It is this weak immune system which invites breast cancer and which brings metastatic cancer back to the body. Each of us is different. Our body systems respond differently to food we eat, to the air we breathe, and to disease. Therefore, what is said here regarding how nutrition and positive living have affected me will vary from woman to woman. The concepts discussed here, however, should help guide anyone who desires to study her own body and learn to read what it is telling her. Above all else, I hope this book will empower women everywhere with knowledge about good nutrition and its relationship to their breast cancer disease. Hopefully, each will also find the spirituality which has brought me health and happiness. Perhaps too, sharing these ideas will bring change to mainstream medicine's view of "food and nutrition" and illuminate how nutrients from "food" can serve as medicine to heal the body. May this book also help doctors see how food, fungi, food "artifacts," and allergies invite this abyss we know as breast cancer. Lorna T.

Looking closer, she found a dark stain on the bodice of her peach colored nightgown. She squeezed her breast and a tiny drop of dark exudate appeared. "Tony, look at this!" she cried. The black droplet swelled on the nipple as she pressed her breast. "What is it?" "I don't know, Lorna," replied Tony calmly, as he came closer to inspect the colored fluid. "You better see the doctor." Lorna's husband knew the discharge wasn't normal, but he did not want to frighten his wife. Lorna pulled her nightgown up over her shoulder as she sat down on the edge of the bed. She felt her small frame being dwarfed by the thoughts flooding her mind. This black fluid scared her. It had never been there before. Lorna got in to see Dr. Thomas Gordon in two days. As she sat waiting in his office, Lorna felt irritable and moody. Her recent episodes of insomnia brought with them a tenacious stubbornness which no one could budge. These moods were typical lately. When Dr. Gordon finished his examination, he adjusted the examining gown over Lorna's chest and asked her to sit up. Lorna dropped her legs over the side of the examining table and waited for Dr. Gordon to speak. When he finished washing his hands, he crossed his arms and leaned back against the wall. Looking at Lorna with a noncommittal expression on his face, he said, "It is just a little papilloma." Lorna looked perplexed, and Dr. Gordon continued. "It's a swelling_ in the duct of your breast. The surface tissue of the duct has developed little polyps or warty growths on it. The black fluid you found is blood." Then Dr. 3 Gordon demonstrated with his hands how the long, narrow tumor was situated in the duct near the top of her breast.

Holism today presents itself as a return to a superior past, and brings Hippocrates in as part of this strategy. Th e model of the history of medicine implicit – or sometimes explicit – in holistic users of Hippocrates is one in which there was a golden age until ‘the turn away from holism in medicine allowed diseases to be located in specifi c organs, tissues or cells’.1 While there is something in this where ancient medicine is concerned, with its basis in fl uids rather than organs, this is of course also a tried and tested strategy for convincing an audience of the value of a ‘new’ thing: you claim it is ‘old’, or ancient, or just traditional.

  • Unconventional Cancer Treatments
    Unconventional Cancer Treatments September 1990 OTA-H-405 NTIS order #PB91-104893 Recommended Citation: U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Unconventional Cancer Treatments, OTA-H-405 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, September 1990). For sale by the Superintendent of Documents U.S. Government Printing OffIce, Washington, DC 20402-9325 (order form can be found in the back of this report) Foreword A diagnosis of cancer can transform abruptly the lives of patients and those around them, as individuals attempt to cope with the changed circumstances of their lives and the strong emotions evoked by the disease. While mainstream medicine can improve the prospects for long-term survival for about half of the approximately one million Americans diagnosed with cancer each year, the rest will die of their disease within a few years. There remains a degree of uncertainty and desperation associated with “facing the odds” in cancer treatment. To thousands of patients, mainstream medicine’s role in cancer treatment is not sufficient. Instead, they seek to supplement or supplant conventional cancer treatments with a variety of treatments that exist outside, at varying distances from, the bounds of mainstream medical research and practice. The range is broad—from supportive psychological approaches used as adjuncts to standard treatments, to a variety of practices that reject the norms of mainstream medical practice. To many patients, the attractiveness of such unconventional cancer treatments may stem in part from the acknowledged inadequacies of current medically-accepted treatments, and from the too frequent inattention of mainstream medical research and practice to the wider dimensions of a cancer patient’s concerns.
