When Dana went in for her routine mammogram, she didn’t think anything of it.
But the tests came back with an abnormality and they wanted to do further testing.
The call from her doctor came in November 2017. That’s when Dana heard the dreaded words. “It’s cancer.”
Dana was diagnosed with Stage 1 invasive ductal carcinoma. Her husband, Ed, was so stunned when she called to tell him, he couldn’t move. He just stared at the phone.
But things were about to get even worse. Because when she met with an oncologist, the doctor grinned joyfully at her. As if it was a happy occasion.
Even though Dana’s family members had survived cancer and lived long, happy lives, the oncologist didn’t seem to register this survival rate. Instead, she told Dana – still only having basic tests results – that she needed a double mastectomy. And seven weeks of radiation plus chemo. AND five years of Tamoxifen.
For Dana, it was worse than hearing she had cancer. Plus she felt like her doctor only saw dollar signs, not a human being. So Dana started her battle. She found a better doctor, fighting her insurance company every step of the way. A lumpectomy was scheduled instead of a double mastectomy. Then she found TTAC.
Watching A Global Quest was life-changing for Dana and Ed. “My mouth was hanging open,” Ed said. Together they found hope and a whole new outlook. They changed their diets AND their way of living – patching relationships and reconnecting with each other.
Watch the video above to hear more about Dana & Ed’s quest for a natural cure.

Hi William,
We don’t have any planned at this time, but if we will be coming your way we will let you know!
Hi.
I love to watch your videos about people telling their stories how they survived cancer. Why are they all restricted, now?
Thanks.
Hi Nancy,
They shouldn’t be! Could you comment a link to a video here and we can take a look?

Hello!
I have watched and purchased the Truth About Cancer and GMOs. I am a fan of TTAC!
I am a Certified Clinical Thermographer in Goodyear Arizona. My goal is to help share the benefits of thermography. I have come to realize few people know of this amazing technology. I have seen people with banners that include info such as, seen on The Truth About Cancer. I am interested in adding this to my own banner. What is the process for obtaining and or creating such?
Warm regards,

Could you please talk about radiation treatments. Worth doing or not n side effects. I know the basic side effects but more like what happens to your muscles, organs, person with fibromyalgia. I have been looking for information and there is not much at all. I am in radiation treatment now for breast cancer ( no chemo) but I just finished my first week n I’m in a lot of pain. The cancer I have is slow growing n cause by estrogen invasive ductal carcinoma bc had a double mastectomy in 2016 n 15 lymph nodes removed (1 positive node) than 2018 a lymph node positive in axillary n 1 behind breast sternum I am now on hormonal therapy which stopped the tumor behind my breast bone it’s gone completely n the axillary removed. Without radiation they say I have 20% change or recurrence I’m confused on what to do. I did holistic plant based diet n it was working plus supplements estrogen level was at 756 in 2016 by Feb 2018 it was 104
I live in AZ and have been denied a simple lumpectomy three times based on the facts that I will not allow the surgeon to take out my sentinel lymph nodes and I will not agree to chemo, radiation and mastectomy. The lump is 4.9cm and I have heard the same script five times. The breast cancer is mucinous and according to my pc if you are going to get breast cancer, this is the one you would want because it rarely metastasizes and responds to treatment. The doctors just look at me when I try to begin a conversation about nutrition like I was speaking in a foreign language, which I found out they only have 1 hour education on nutrition in their medical education. I’m wondering if anyone else who has come up against this and how I could proceed.

I have had radiation back in 2010 and it was barbaric to me. I burned and my skin went black and peeled off leaving bare chest with weeping.
I got cancer again diagnosed November 2018. Stage 4. Bones lymph nodes in sternum, lungs and brain tumour. I had surgery to my brain and further radiation to my sternum and back, left hip. I have lost lung capacity and have scarring. I had brain radiation and some scarring. Please get good info before agreeing to radiation
