    @DantonV My mom had a radical mastectomy last January. I am much older then you, and I have felt this way myself. I can imagine how scared you must be. She is doing ok this year, even with all her post op treatments and chemo. If you can talk to people who have been in the same situation as you are in. It really does help.
    All I know to do, is to share whats in you hearts with others, give lots of hugs (and get them too) and LEARN as much as you can from your mom, everyday.

    my mom was just diagnosed with breast cancer and im only 13 and i don’t think she will make it she is older i can’t type this without balling my eyes out

    @dindinha2805 Also its ridiculous to say that people eat the same food as their mother and grandmother, for starters peoples eating habits have changes dramatically over the last 80 years. My mother certainly doesn’t boil her veg to death like my grandmother, and my mother didn’t have to conform to rationing as she wasn’t alive during WW2. Also food that is available now wasn’t 40 years ago, for example exotic fruit.

  5. cjcraigers says:

    @dindinha2805 actually its been scientifically proven that in some families there are genetic predispositions to cancer. In particular women that have mutations in the BRCA gene have a massively increased risk of developing breast cancer in their life time. I assume that when you say “cancer is not pass down from family” you mean a genetic risk not the actual disease itself.

  6. dindinha2805 says:

    @CelestialEmbodiment I am agree with you, cancer is not pass down from family ,but unhealthy life style is passed down from familiy, that is why sometimes gran mother,mother and daugther has the same type of cancer of corse; they have the same type of food!

    I’ve seen some bizarre comments, bt in a quite unrelated posting, someone actually left the message “if you don’t like this commentary, you are stupid and have breast cancer”. THAT makes sense… (sheesh)

  8. 127miles says:

    actually weed cures all cancer, but its illegal. the things that cause cancers are legal. So in fact all those stupid people who do the walk for cancer are wasting their time because they’ve been brain washed to think weed is harmful to people. Welcome to 1984 my friends :D

    @CelestialEmbodiment if you drop less than an ouce of that acid on a rock thats 3x3ft it will practicaly disapear…….. still eating too much meat is bad

    I have left it up to the adults, Robert, mm’kay. I’m just trying to help the situation. So the next time someone gets ill and you don’t know why you might think twice about these explanations. I dare you to read The China Study by T. Colin Campbell and then get back to me. The studies have been done but medical industry is too tainted by drug money. Also watch, The Beautiful Truth,Healing Cancer from the Inside Out..to start. I’m happy you responded. I’m going to go beat my tambourine now.

  19. CelestialEmbodiment says:

    @robertpaulson : HUMANS : our intestinal tracts are too long, which allows for prolonged putrefaction of meat and a prolonged period to sit for the poisonous nitrogenous acids (urea & uric) that this rotting, slow-moving mass carries (kidney disease, atherosclerosis/arteriosclerosis, gout & arthritis plague modern Westerners who consume 3 servings of meat daily). Additionally: our stomach acid is too mild for the task of breaking down dense flesh.

  20. robertpaulson says:

    @allyskimmer Open your mouth and look in a mirror. See those 4 kinda triangular shaped teeth in there? Those are called CANINES, sweetie. Those are made for meat. Now go beat your tambourine in that drum circle over there and leave the theories to the adults, mm’kay?

  21. robertpaulson says:

    @CelestialEmbodiment … funny you say that, because the current belief in medical research holds that cancer begins with a genetic mutation, in simple terms: with injured genes. But even that is not 100% proven. Oh, but, no… your probably right with your “pirate-scurvy theory.”

  22. XpEAnUTBuTtERsUckSX says:

    @allyskimmer We are omnivores, we have enzymes that break down meat rather effectively .

  23. CelestialEmbodiment says:

    Cancer is a dietary-deficiency disease and thus it is easily shown to be a regional malady. The symptoms of scurvy involve tooth-loss, surface & internal bleeding and the twisting of joints. Scurvy’s treatment, preventative & cure is vitamin C, not orthopedic surgery, not periodontics, not blood-clotting agents. Cancer is not communicable, not passed down from family, not caused by dirty motor oil or sunshine as cancer is, and will always be, a chronic metabolic disease.

  24. ThingsTerrestrial says:

    Cancerous/malignant cells are errant healing cells. Healing cells are indistinguishable from pre-embryonic cells known as trophoblasts. Trophoblastic cells form a cluster and bore into the uterine membrane wall for nourishment as malignant cells metastasize or bore into outlying tissue. Cancerous growths mimic embryonic growth, indeed tumors and embryos are new life and establish circulatory systems.

    I might have breast cancer or maybe just a cyst… I’m scared.
