Brad from Monash, South Australia. How are you Brad? I'm going very well, thank you. It's good. Could you please tell the listeners a little bit about yourself? I've been married for nearly four years. I don't have any children yet and I work three jobs at a fault home. They're pretty busy and back playing competitive sport again. Now, Ann, October 2004, you were diagnosed with a cancer in the chest. What symptoms lead to that? I had a couple of occasions where I got stomach pain and went to the doctor to get checked up about that. I did blood tests but no X-rays or scans. It came to a conclusion that it could be Iliac disease. Then one morning early in October, I woke up with chest pains and a numb left arm and thought that symptoms of a heart attack as a friend of mine recently had one and that was the same. When they conditionally had, we went to a large public hospital at Australia. They rigged me up to some machines and said, Brad, it looks like you were having a serious heart attack at the moment. I said, I'm feeling okay. But yeah, they did X-rays and revealed a large cancer in my chest. Starts from my heart and lung out the sides of a small football or grapefruit. What treatments did you undertake for the cancer? Because the cancer was so big, it was actually pushing on the main arteries. That was giving the heart attack symptoms that it had to come out. For a day, they put me on some drugs to try and shrink this thing a bit. Then they went in an astronomy and they saw this thing that looked so big. They said it looked like a bit of a dog's breakfast, so they just took biopsies off that of this thing. They closed me back up again. They basically laughed, had some impact in conclusive. But it just needed to come out again. A couple of weeks, they gave me time to recover from the first surgery. Then they went in and they removed a large tumor, which they called a teratoma, a type of cancer, which probably had been in there for many years, which contained bone teeth, necklamps, all enclosed in this back. We spoke to the doctor, the surgeon, and said, well, I need any chemo. I shouldn't, as he was able to scrape it all out, but there was 20 bits left stuck on my lung and heart. But I shouldn't need any follow-up treatment. We waited three months and went back to my normal work. We came for scans again. The scans showed that this thing had started to grow again. chemo was our next option, as we hadn't heard of any other treatments. We had four courses of the standard chemo, which was Latin, Opuside, and Blea, and Mycenae, the standard treatment. Four courses, and I'm not sure pretty well without many side effects. But then on our final scan, we found out that the chemo wasn't effective and the cancer was still there, and it's already spotted up a little bit, but not a lot. And they suggested that we have stronger doses of chemo, or a stem cell transplant together, most likely, or we could have another surgery and have a lobe of my lung cut out just to make sure that they removed everything. And we decided that was basically step one, and that option again, what it took at 20 odd years to get that big, that I weighed another 20 odd years, and then get it cut out again if I had to. I wasn't going to do that again. But at the time we just found a lot of people that brad have you heard of apricot kernels, and you heard about the right change and everything. Well, we've got nothing to lose as the medical system was still on our side to fall back on. For about 12 months, we did apricot kernels. We changed that diet from acidic to alkaline and got into a flax seed, but we got it with cottage cheese and flax seed oil, and it was really looking forward to our next lot of scan. We had any success, and through our amazement, what was then my chest had started to shrink, from giving that a go for about 12 months, and vegetables, uses, and really trying to do on an alkaline diet. So that got us so far, and then in our journeys we'd come across a nutritionist friend of mine that should come across a new technology called guaco nutrients. That looked right off the jet, you investigate that, just to help yourself, support in your immune system as my whole body needed to pick up and repair from the chemo and the surgery, just to get my body functioning again. That was really beneficial. And yeah, that was our treatment, and we've done very well, and the stage now that we've had all clear results and we've got to what is left as diet and the scar tissue is shrinking, we've done very well. Well done. Have you had any follow-up from anyone in the cancer research industry? No, I haven't. I know my case was a case study, that I was a different one. It had been a tricky situation all along, where the dog who hadn't known what to do. So it's a bit surprising thinking that my results have come from outside of standard treatment, and it's a good result, but no, I haven't. And I haven't been asked as to how it all happened either. And to wrap up, do you have any further comments on your experience? One thing is that I encourage a lot of people, and the journey I've been on has really helped a lot of people in it. It's true that God's everything's out for good, but I just want to encourage people that cancer doesn't have to be at best since we've found it. It just takes a few things you need to correct, and get your body functioning again, and something we've learnt and being able to see that happen a lot with other people that have had cancer, and being encouraged. Okay. So you're actually helping other people there? Yeah, finding a lot of people that have had my testimony, and just encouraging people with the things to change and to do, and their thing results themselves, which is fantastic. Okay. Okay. All the best, Brad, and all the best with your health and everything else. Thank you very much.
