Hi, my name is Jane mother of 4 children and i have survived BC twice. At 39, I put myself on a detox diet (Liver Cleansing by Dr Sandra Cabot), one i had meant to put my ex alcoholic husband on. My left boob swelled up after a week, and i went to see my Dr. She felt a lump and i went off to have an ultrasound. Fine needle aspirations were taken from the lump and lymph node. both came back malignant. A week later i was at SCGH, 3 weeks after being on my diet, the mamogram showed the lymph reduced by 40% and Breast tumour gone!!! I started to see a naturopath Dr, I took B17 while still under the watchfull eye of my Dr at SCGH. I had my lymph nodes out and kept my boob, had chemo..........4yrs later, a mamogram showed that the cancer had returned. I decided on a double mastectomy/recon. One month later i had the massive surgery. My latt muscles in my back were used in the recon. I had genetic testing as cancer in the left breast runs in my fathers family, both sides. It came back inconclusive. Neverthe less, i had a total hysterectomy in Jan this year. In March this year my eldest son and I participated in the Big Shave and we raised $800 in just a week! I am so proud of my children, my parents and my new husband. I cherish life and those around me. Words can not explain.
