Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Cancer / March 2004I don't want cancer
Dear alt.support.cancer readers I am a writer who has just spent two years researching a book about the cancer situation, called 'I don't want cancer'. I am looking for ten test readers, maybe more familiar with this field than myself, who are interested enough to read 'I don't want cancer' and return some feedback so that I can improve it for publishing. It has over 28,000 words, 12 chapters or sixty A4 size pages (no pics). It is reasonably free of jargon. Although the subject of cancer is certainly 'a whole can of worms' this book does manage to present a comprehensive overview of the cancer situation from wide sources. It seemed to me when I started researching that despite billions spent world-wide on cancer research there was relatively little to show for it. After seeing friends and family cut down in their prime by cancer and its treatments, I believe that there is something seriously wrong with accepted wisdom on cancer treatment and as a result have completed this book, which amplifies my concerns if anything. Although I am nobody in the cancer industry, I am an educated, independent researcher, published academic author (Macmillan) and seeker after truth. I have no vested interest in any particular treatment (although I personally prefer natural and holistic if possible). However, as I am discovering, cancer is not a subject people will normally read about, which is why I am posting this message to you here at Google.

Block this sender poster names: simonthescribe and Simon Mitchell posting email: simon@simonthescribe.co.uk J I am surprised by this response in what I thought was an open discussion group on cancer. All I am asking for is for 10 readers to test read a new book. I do not claim to be a specialist, only a good and honest writer who has spent the last 2 years gathering material and writing on a subject I feel is important. Over-specialisation is one of the present problems with a medical system that will not integrate with other philosophies of medicine. The few people who have read 'I don't want cancer' say it is well written and researched. I question your own motivation in 'banning'something you have never read. I believe that you got your first answer. by your own admission, you know nothing about the subject. We are sufferers, who, in most cases have no idea how we got into the predicament. It isn't pleasant to have a doctor deliver a death warrant to you, as you lie in a hospital bed, and it is more humiliating to read posts like yours. We have a problem, and share it with others. We don't need to be placed on a slide, to read your theories, when we cannot figure out our own. Please, unless you can obviously do us a great service, leave us alone. We have our problems, and want to share them with ourselves. >I am surprised by this response in what I thought was an open >discussion group on cancer.

Why not post it on a website, or a binary newsgroup? > Why not post it on a website, it is and anyone who posts "something seriously wrong with accepted wisdom on cancer treatment " obviously doesn't have a clue how many are cured by "accepted wisdom on cancer treatment" and is NOT welcome here in any format whatsoever.

Seems a bit out of order. 2. Two years gathering material is hardly enough qualifications to critique the medical system. 3. There are an abundance of publications in circulation on the subject already. None of which has any substance. I am personally tired of hearing the moans from the alt-med group i.e. "no one will listen to us." We don't listen, because your arguments ring hollow. You have no credentials, no experience, no special skills, no evidence, no sound logic, etc. Alt-med has no credibility because many of you support morons like Hulda Clark, whom believes cancer is caused by flukes and can be detected by her "electronic zapper." Must I go on to make my point? Jerry |
