  • S3 E5 - Dana Patti - Papillary Thyroid Cancer
    2022/03/14
    Celebrating My Cancer Story Podcasts 2nd Anniversary with the perfect guest!  You will be hearing from Dana who is a Papillary Thyroid Cancer Survivor.   Dana was diagnosed at age 24 and after being urged by her dentist to get the lump in her throat checked out.   Going through her thyroidectomy surgery and multiple rounds of RAI treatment was in a survival mode blur. It wasn’t until after all of that, when was released back into the 'wild' with a gigantic scar across her neck, that she started to  struggle with her reality.  For the longest time, she kept her journey private, not really talking about her experience with family, friends or coworkers.   It wasn't until I Dana met other women who had gone through the same cancer she had  noticed that we all had a similar question we would ask each-other: "What does your scar look like?" She realized that she wasn't alone and that she had this built in and awesome cancer community that she was a part of.  Fast forward to Dana creating The Butterfly Scar Project. Dana mentions on her website "My mission with The Butterfly Scar Project is to help empower women AFTER their cancer to help them feel comfortable in their scars. The thyroid is shaped like a butterfly and a butterfly has it's own meaning: A symbol of powerful transformation...so Butterfly Scar Project was born! Life after cancer is hard enough and there is no guide book. Cancer DOES SUCK but YOU DON'T. I hope these necklaces help women to feel powerful, strong and beautiful when they wear them and I hope they can feel empowered by their scars. Wherever you are on your journey know you are not alone."

  • Dr. Patrick Vickers - The Advanced Gerson Therapy Clinic
    2022/02/07

    Buckle your seatbelts kids, you are about to be taken on a wild ride!  This is yet again a very different episode that I am releasing in which you will learn a ton about science, anatomy, philology, the history of medicine, pharmacology and integrative medicine.  This will be unlike ANYTHING else you listen to!  Turn your air-pods up and press play:

    Today you are going to hear from Dr. Patrick Vickers, he is  an expert on the indisputable, cellular science behind health and disease and the face of Gerson Therapy worldwide.  He was trained by Dr. Gerson's family and is one of the few people to have studied Dr. Gerson's handwritten files. He continues to carry on Dr. Gerson's legacy through his clinic, The Advanced Gerson Therapy Clinic, in Rosarito, Mexico; the world’s premier clinic for the natural treatment of cancer and advanced disease. Dr. Patrick Vickers is also featured in the epic documentary series, The Truth About Cancer: A Global Quest and one of his patients is also chronicled in the classic documentary, The Beautiful Truth.

    Nobel Peace Prize Winner, Dr. Albert Schweitzer, called Dr. Max Gerson, "The most eminent genius in medical history" as The Gerson Therapy has the most storied reputation, to date, for its ability to reverse advanced cancer and degenerative diseases. With seven movies chronicling Dr. Gerson's work, no other therapy has received such recognition on an international scale. Unfortunately, the Gerson Therapy remains the most censored therapy by governments, medical authorities and media outlets around the world as it poses an imminent threat to the conventional medical system.
