I apologize to the old timers on this list for repeating myself, but I
could not let this post stand without response.

Eight years ago I had a walnut sized malignant melanoma tumor removed with
a lymph node in my neck. At that stage, most die.I was offered Interferon,
but it is fairly ineffective and is deadly to your thyroid so figured bee
stings would be just as good to kick up my immune system since I was
stinging myself regularly for arthritis

During my research on cancer, I developed a law that fits just about any
endeavor- the Law of the Survivor- "Only survivors give testimonials." All
the rest that try something and it does not work, die, so you only hear
from the survivors. Hard to talk if you are dead, except in movies.

I thought the bee stings were the cause of my combating the cancer, but
recently I learned that from 7-25% of the population (scientists have no
idea what the number is, so they give a range) are genetically wired to
fight malignant melanoma and survive with no outside influence other that a
well working immune system. I never said to anyone that the stings were the
reason for my survival, but that I had been stinging myself regularly for
arthritis, and maybe that was was kept my immune system healthy. My
oncologist tends to agree, but we both know that my survival could have
occurred without any stings.

Some ear cancers are not always deadly, but malignant melanoma is for at
least 75% (maybe 93%) of the population unless treated.I know of several
people who let vanity override losing an ear and they are dead.

You can rub propolis, honey, or cow manure on cancer and survive, but more
probably you will die.

Won't matter to the true believers as you will no longer be around to argue
with them, and the lie will live on.
