Cancer, or a malignant tumor, develops in the body as a result of the appearance of atypical cells that divide at an uncontrolled high rate. This leads to an increase in the tumor, its germination through the tissues, to the very blood vessels. Here, the cells easily enter the general circulation and spread throughout the body, settling in the most distant organs. Secondary formations appear - metastases.
Statistics
Treatment of cancer in the stage with metastases most often becomes ineffective. Positive results are possible here too, but this requires a fanatical desire to survive. If hundreds of thousands of people fall ill with cancer every year, then there are dozens of cases of healing at the last stage in 50 years.
Cancer stages
Diagnosed with zero degree (the most successful for a complete cure) and the next 4 stages. At eacheducation reaches a certain size, has its own pace of distribution.
The last stage becomes the most severe, not only the sources of the tumor are damaged, but also neighboring distant organs. Stage 4 signs become:
- fever state with high constant temperature;
- oppressive constant pain that is not relieved by analgesics;
- weakness and fatigue, in which the patient constantly feels sleepy;
- emaciation and loss of appetite;
- the appearance of bleeding and disruption of the basic systems of the body - the gastrointestinal tract, urinary, pulmonary.
The size of the tumor is relegated to the background, the condition is determined by metastases. They cause damage to the brain, lungs, liver and bones.
Can surgery help
Recovery of the patient depends entirely on the prevalence of the process. Surgeons have 2 ways to influence the process:
- Antiblastic - complete excision of the tumor.
- Ablastika is a principle aimed at preventing recurrence and spread of a tumor by excising the focus, together with lymph nodes and vessels, as a single block, within he althy tissue.
At the initial stages, radical treatment has the highest efficiency - more than 90%. At stage 4, it is impossible to wait for this, the process is irreversible, because the organ itself is infiltratively destroyed, there are multiple metastases.
Only complete removal of the tumor and metastases can providestage 4 cure. Sometimes this is possible. The surgeon may remove more adjacent tissues and structures, such as in a mastectomy. But more often, the isolation of mutated masses becomes impossible and only a part of the pathological neoplasm is excised.
The main treatment for stage 4 is palliative care. It only helps to eliminate the symptoms and alleviate the patient's condition. It includes chemotherapy, immuno-, radiation, radiotherapy, which are very effective for certain tumors. Inoperable forms are removed only for he alth reasons: elimination of intestinal obstruction, urinary retention, bleeding.
4 stage therapy
The basic principles of treatment are as follows:
- Immunotherapy is the use of cytokines and monoclonal antibodies that increase the body's defenses to fight against atypical cells. The integrity of he althy tissue is not compromised and there are no side effects. Preparations are selected individually. The disadvantage is the duration of treatment to achieve results.
- Radiotherapy or radiation therapy - mainly used in bone oncology. Gamma rays destroy atypical cells in the stage of active reproduction.
- Proton beam therapy – has a big advantage: the proton beam is very targeted and practically does not affect he althy tissue.
- Chemotherapy is almost always used to slow tumor growth, especially bone tumors. This is a treatment with cytostatics.
Innovativemethods:
- Laser therapy - layer-by-layer dissection of the tumor with simultaneous coagulation of tissues. This stops the spread of cancer cells.
- Cryotherapy - a source of freezing (nitrous oxide) is brought to the tumor and exposed to a critically low temperature.
- Also, a tumor can be affected by a pointwise high-power current.
Cases of self-healing from cancer
The phenomenon of self-healing is called Peregrine's syndrome. Such cases of spontaneous recovery are described in the literature. This regression occurs without the intervention of doctors. It can be full or partial.
The name is given because in the 13th century there lived a saint named Peregrine. At a young age, he was diagnosed with a large bone tumor. He treated himself only with prayers and according to church documents, he died already at the age of 80, having been cured of a tumor.
Today's situation
It is such that, according to scientists, a cure for cancer will not be created for another 20 years, at least. Patient immunity is of great importance. Traditional treatments and the psychological state of the patient are also important.
Although it's hard to talk about it, a person can be crushed by their diagnosis. According to studies since 1960, lists of cured cancer patients in whom the diagnosis was confirmed histologically have been published:
- In the first place among such cases is such kidney cancer as hypernephroma. Nearly 70 recoveries reported.
- Blood cancer (leukemia) is second with 53 patients cured.
- Neuroblastoma at third - 41 cases.
- Retinoblastoma – 33 cases.
- 22 women recovered from breast cancer without doctors.
- 16 men experienced self-regression of testicular cancer.
- Melanoma reported 69 cases of healing.
All other healings are less than 10, so you can't talk about this as a pattern. Theoretically, this could be a medical error. No cases of cure for stage 4 esophageal cancer, for example, have been reported at all.
Stomach cancer
At stage 4, palliative chemotherapy is used. Sometimes an emergency gastroenterostomy can be performed - to restore the movement of food through the gastrointestinal tract. Cases of cure of stage 4 stomach cancer are known. Such examples are especially frequent in patients treated in Japan according to the Nishi system.
Esophageal cancer
Esophageal cancer of the 4th stage is difficult, it is not subject to any treatment even in emergency situations. There were no cases of cure. Palliative therapy only eliminates the symptoms without affecting their source at all. Treatment can only prolong life for a while and make it acceptable by reducing persistent pain.
Certainly known cures
The most famous case of a cure for stage 4 cancer is the illness and recovery of cyclist Lance Armstrong. In 1996, he was diagnosed with terminal testicular cancer. After 2 years, he was he althy and returned to big sport.
Registered cases of cure for stage 4 cancer in the so-calledplacebo effect. The patient, not knowing his diagnosis, is treated for other pathologies and recovers. For example, the following case of a patient's recovery is described. An oncologist professor from Moscow University consulted patients in Kazakhstan in the 70s. One of the patients was diagnosed with an inoperable form of laryngeal cancer. The specialist prescribed the usual symptomatic treatment, without naming the diagnosis. After 5 years, the same patient came to the professor to thank him, being completely he althy.
This is also evidenced by a review of one case: while a woman did not know her diagnosis, she was treated in gynecology for inflammation of the uterus. Then she was transferred to oncology and given a card with a diagnosis. When she read the "verdict", her hands dropped and she died at home a week and a half later.
The case of a woman being cured at the 4th stage of cancer, when she did not know her diagnosis, is also described. During the first operation, when the abdominal cavity was cut, the tumor was not touched, multiple organ damage was noted. The woman did not know her diagnosis and lived for another 5 years. She went to the doctors already about appendicitis, she did not have a tumor.
A living example of a case of a cure for stage 4 stomach cancer is the life of yachtsman Jason McDonald, who was given a 3-month life prognosis. After hearing the verdict of the doctors, he set off alone on a round-the-world trip on a yacht. He was cured by completely new living conditions - a harsh sea, simple rough food and no frills.
No matter how strange it may sound, but cancer is curable - a storyAmerican movie star Michael Douglas' stage 4 cancer cure proves it. His throat cancer has reached stage 3 or even 4, but he was able to get out thanks to the support of his loved ones.
The materials of the oncological center "European Cancer Clinic in Moscow" describe the case of the cure of the patient Alexei, who was also diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer. He simply believed his oncologist Andrei Pylev and did not go to Israel, handing over the tickets. He underwent several operations, 6 courses of chemotherapy. I literally forced myself to move and do work and family. Morale was terrible. When all metastases were localized in one lobe of the liver, another operation was performed - a two-stage liver resection. He agreed to her with an insignificant amount of chances. He had nothing to lose. Proves that cancer is curable, the story of the cure of stage 4 cancer by Alexei. He completely broke out of the palliative! This is a completely different format when the tumor is gone altogether. Andrey Pylev, the attending surgeon, speaks about this.
Real cases of cure for stage 4 cancer exist. The popular author of detective stories Daria Dontsova was diagnosed with grade 4 breast cancer. The professor predicted her only 3 months of life. Dontsova herself recalls that she simply told herself that this could not be, because she has 3 children, a mother, cats and dogs. The writer is determined to win. She underwent not only surgery, but also radiation and chemotherapy.
The artist Yulia Volkova was cured of stage 4 cancer, who learned about her diagnosis in 2012. Discuss thisshe didn't want to be with anyone. She underwent a series of operations and only a few years later admitted this publicly. As a result of the operation, she lost her voice, she could only whisper. She underwent 3 more operations to restore ligaments in Germany and Korea. Now Julia even performs sometimes.
Another stage 4 cancer cure story. Kylie Minogue, a singer from Australia, was diagnosed with breast cancer while touring Europe in 2005 at the age of 36. The star immediately underwent surgery and chemotherapy within 8 months. Kylie Minogue forced herself to fight, although it seemed that the ground was gone from under her feet.
The life of the famous TV presenter Yuri Nikolaev, who fought intestinal cancer for several years and won, proves that it is possible to cure stage 4 cancer with metastases. But this pathology is practically incurable. Yuri Nikolaev said that the world around immediately turned black overnight, but he managed to overcome despair. He underwent a number of operations and other activities that were part of the course of therapy.
A real cure for stage 4 cancer happened to Sharon Osbourne - the wife of famous rock musician Ozzy Osbourne. Having colon cancer, she preventively removed her mammary glands in 2012.
An example of the cure of stage 4 cancer with metastases is the illness and recovery of Laima Vaikule. In 1991, while touring America, she was diagnosed with terminal breast cancer. There was little chance of recovery. After the cure, she said that the diagnosis forced her to reconsider her outlook on life. The star had a difficult character,She was harsh, rude and disliked many people. After treatment, the singer changed dramatically in character and attitude towards others.
A miraculous cure for stage 4 cancer happened to Rod Stewart. The British singer was operated on for thyroid cancer in July 2000 and underwent chemotherapy several times. In January 2001 he was completely cured and still lives. Then Rod looked at his condition as a sign from above, and completely revised his life.
Another example of a cure is Canadian runner Terry Fox. At the age of 19, he lost his leg due to cancer, but was cured thanks to the belief in victory and a few years later he ran across the country with a prosthesis, raising funds for oncological research.
Other celebrities who beat cancer: singer Anastacia, Angelina Jolie, Christina Applegate, Hugh Jackman, I. Kobzon - fought cancer for 13 years, Michael Hall, Vladimir Pozner, Cynthia Nixon, Vladimir Levkin from the Na-Na group , Boris Korchevnikov, Andrey Gaidulyan, Valentin Yudashkin, Emmanuil Vitorgan.
And how many cured people whose names are not so famous!
What is human life made of
A person can replenish his energy from 3 sources: food, light (environment) and thoughts. In the absence of 1 source or its decrease, the other 2 usually compensate for it. This can explain all those many cases when a grandfather or grandmother smoked before the age of 90 and did not get lung cancer. Either an uncle or an aunt ate butter with spoons, ate pork, fatty sausage all his life, drank alcohol and lived todeep old age. But in such cases, they never talk about how these people lived in general and what they always did right. Maybe they lived in nature. They smoked, but were modest in food, active, kind to others, had a positive mindset, went to church and prayed hard. Or when they got sick, they changed their behavior dramatically, and compensated for the lost sources of nourishment.
Dr. Le Chan believes that it is the internal state of a person that affects the incidence of oncology. If for some reason he ceases to see meaning in his life, then the body reacts to this with cancer. This is especially true for active people who, due to certain circumstances, suddenly “folded their wings.”
These facts convinced the doctor that cancer is a turning point in a person's life, his last warning that everything needs to change. On this subject, he wrote his book with numerous examples of healing.
The same opinion is shared by the doctor Bernie Siegel in his books. It often happens that a person only needs to be reminded of the proximity of death, so that it spurs him to think and do everything differently, simply because "there will be no more time", he is running out.
Today's workaholics often suppress their pursuit of happiness. Why is there so much talk about the positive? Because the negative has very low vibrations that destroy the body. We must not forget about ourselves and put everything on the altar for children, husband, etc. Do you know what has been noticed: women who are overprotective of their children are more likely to get breast cancer than their peers.
Miracles are possible, but they must be accompaniedfanatical desire to survive. At stage 4, there is too little time and energy left to think. Not a single day can be wasted. If you believe in the power of the Almighty, then pray fervently and sincerely.
