To stimulate the writing process, she proposes specific exercises, prompts, and models. In discussions of the diary of Fanny Burney, the stories of Leo Tolstoy and Alice Munro, numerous memoirs, novels, paintings, photographs, and blogs, Gubar shows how readers can learn from art that deepens our comprehension of what it means to live or die with the disease.

Download or read book Healing Cancer written by Foundation for Advancement in Cancer Therapy (F.A.C.T.) and published by . This book was released on 2018-04 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ruth Sackman (1915-2008) was a trailblazer, indeed, a warrior, for a different concept and treatment of cancer. For nearly 40 years, as president/co-founder of the Foundation for Advancement in Cancer Therapy (F.A.C.T.), a nonprofit 501(c)(3) educational organization (est. 1971), she counseled doctors and patients worldwide about nontoxic, biologically-sound therapies, helping countless numbers of people achieve long-term recovery. When Ruth started out in the 70s, the ¿alternative¿ scene was very different from today. In those pre-Internet times, reliable information on unconventional treatments was very hard to come by. Most people assumed the legal protocols ¿ surgery, chemo, radiation ¿ were their only options and the medical establishment was very quick to condemn anything else as ¿quackery.¿ But Ruth was unshakeable in making the logical case that therapy should focus on improving the condition of the whole body, rather than the conventional emphasis on killing cancer cells as the answer to cancer. Ruth¿s voice is unique ¿ fearless, authoritative, yet plain-spoken and practical. Healing Cancer contains a wide range of her writings on subjects of great value to anyone seeking to take charge of their health. She is powerful in her understanding of the body¿s incredible self-healing capacity, when given proper support, and in making sense of the information and misinformation overload we confront in our hyper-paced world. In the Introduction, Consuelo Reyes, her protégé of 20 years, relates the gripping tale of how Ruth became a beloved expert on ¿alternative cancer therapy,¿ a term she initiated. Consuelo also provides chapter notes/updates, but Ruth¿s writings are the heart and soul of this book ¿ best read carefully and often for maximum wisdom.

Download or read book A Cure Within written by Neil Canavan and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cancer. There are few words in the English language having such a visceral, personal impact. Cancer patient. Cancer survivor. Pretty much anyone over the age of 30 knows one. A family member. A friend. Someone lost too soon. Someone forever changed. But we don't really like to talk about it, because there's really not much we can do. We fight cancer, sure, but we rarely win. Defeating cancer is one of medical science's greatest challenges. So when a novel approach to treatment seems promising, there is an intense interest in its progress and those who are making it. This book is about both - the progress and the pioneers - and its focus is the revolutionary science of something called cancer immunotherapy. This medical marvel, cancer immunotherapy - also called immuno-oncology - is still in its infancy. Yet, mobilizing the immune system to recognize and attack cancer has long been imagined, and occasionally attempted, for more than 100 years: It is only just recently that significant - in fact, unprecedented - progress has been made. With the use of newly approved immunotherapy treatments, there are now reports of hundreds, if not thousands of cancer patients with advanced disease living years beyond all prior expectation. Some of these once-terminally ill patients are now called "cured." This has never happened before. As Dr. Jill O'Donnell-Tormey comments in the Foreword, "It has taken decades of basic research and billions of dollars of investment to build the foundation upon which today's lifesaving treatments are based. This book offers a uniquely entertaining yet inspiring glimpse into the lives and minds of the academic and industry pioneers who forged this new field. It is a story of how an obscure and oft-derided field of cancer research - and the tenacious few scientists who refused to abandon it - came from behind to become the new 'darling of oncology.'" The book's author, Neil Canavan, is an experienced commentator on new developments in medical science. His portraits of 25 of the pioneers in immunotherapy are the culmination of two years of travel to laboratories, offices, and conferences around the world and countless hours of conversation with individuals immersed in a vitally important, promising assault on a dread disease that kills more than eight million people each year worldwide. -- from dust jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her New York Times bestseller, Radical Remission: Surviving Cancer Against All Odds, Dr. Kelly A. Turner, founder of the Radical Remission Project, uncovers nine factors that can lead to a spontaneous remission from cancer—even after conventional medicine has failed. While getting her Ph.D. at the University of California, Berkley, Dr. Turner, a researcher, lecturer, and counselor in integrative oncology, was shocked to discover that no one was studying episodes of radical (or unexpected) remission—when people recover against all odds without the help of conventional medicine, or after conventional medicine has failed. She was so fascinated by this kind of remission that she embarked on a ten month trip around the world, traveling to ten different countries to interview fifty holistic healers and twenty radical remission cancer survivors about their healing practices and techniques. Her research continued by interviewing over 100 Radical Remission survivors and studying over 1000 of these cases. Her evidence presents nine common themes that she believes may help even terminal patients turn their lives around.

Download or read book The Emperor of All Maladies written by Siddhartha Mukherjee and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2011-08-09 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and a documentary from Ken Burns on PBS, this New York Times bestseller is “an extraordinary achievement” (The New Yorker)—a magnificent, profoundly humane “biography” of cancer—from its first documented appearances thousands of years ago through the epic battles in the twentieth century to cure, control, and conquer it to a radical new understanding of its essence. Physician, researcher, and award-winning science writer, Siddhartha Mukherjee examines cancer with a cellular biologist’s precision, a historian’s perspective, and a biographer’s passion. The result is an astonishingly lucid and eloquent chronicle of a disease humans have lived with—and perished from—for more than five thousand years. The story of cancer is a story of human ingenuity, resilience, and perseverance, but also of hubris, paternalism, and misperception. Mukherjee recounts centuries of discoveries, setbacks, victories, and deaths, told through the eyes of his predecessors and peers, training their wits against an infinitely resourceful adversary that, just three decades ago, was thought to be easily vanquished in an all-out “war against cancer.” The book reads like a literary thriller with cancer as the protagonist. Riveting, urgent, and surprising, The Emperor of All Maladies provides a fascinating glimpse into the future of cancer treatments. It is an illuminating book that provides hope and clarity to those seeking to demystify cancer.

Dr. Tien-Sheng Hsu is a highly respected medical doctor and psychiatrist in Taiwan who uses a very different approach from traditional medicine. He is the founder of a Holistic Clinic in Taipei which treats cancer, other physical illnesses and mental illness based on the idea that all illness is a reflection of inner problems which disrupt the powerful immune system that is our natural state. This inner dis-ease can be described as unresolved issues, blockages, repressed emotion, habitual negative patterns of thought, or unhealthy behavior that exists in the individual's psychology, life, and heart . Dr Hsu's emphasis is on helping the patient to grow, and heal their psyche and life, and thus reinvigorate and unleash the body's powerful natural healing and recuperative powers. The many people who have dramatically improved or completely healed themselves with the aid of Dr Hsu, have resulted in a burgeoning interest in this approach throughout Asia
