What about non-orthodox "cures"? Have you tried?

I give you credit for researching and trying to help your sister, but this is her fight and she needs to do it her way.
honestly,I would resent my sister always telling me about this cure or that, or don't eat this or that.
While it is good for everyone to eat healthy and exercise, there is no definitive proof that turmeric or apricot seeds or Budwig will keep her cancer from returning.

I would support her, help her with her kids, let her discuss her fears without dismissing them .

Thanks for your opinion, Lauriesh.

I am not telling her what to do or eat/not eat. She is taking her own decisions based on what she deems fit and what her doc advises her to do or eat.

I just wonder whether use of tamoxifen gives a "definite proof" that her cancer isn't going to come back? You see, I doubt that it does. The research and studies on tamoxifen actually prove the opposite. OK, fine, maybe that particular type of cancer wouldn't come back, but the other one, the more agressive kind might (brought about by the drug). And then there is no treatment and no cure.

You do not have to remind me that this is her "fight". I know that perfectly, thank you. I did not research on cancer before she actually requested that I help her with obtaining some information on the "cure". I wouldn't be saying anything if I wasn't asked.
