Nutrition and recurrance??

Yeah - my mouth is full of amalgam fillings and it would cost me a fortune to get rid of them - or the equivalent of one treatment of Herceptin/Zometa!!!
What I see generally with all my survivor friends and aquaintences at the cancer center is that these women HAD good diets and were pretty fit to begin with. Some of us are even quite athletic and have been all our lives. I agree with a post farther down this list that the chemicals in the environment have to have something to do with our disease.
In my home town they sprayed for mosquitoes in the canyon at the end of our street and for who knows what in the vineyards across the street. In fact both houses my parents built were on the edge of Concord grape vineyards. The second house was build on a lot that was a former peach orchard and we ate things grown in that back yard as well as the neighbors. Who know how much DDT and other bad stuff I ingested.
But I do not blame my parents or any one else. I just became aware of what had been done to the environment when I took a practical chemistry class in college that went a lot into the ways the planet has been polluted.
