5 Perspectives to Research about HPV Vaccine:

I'd be willing to bet you that Rick Perry is not vaccinating his girls or mandating the females of his family to be shot up with the HPV vaccine, Gardasil.I'm just sayin...

CNN posted an article about the things they claimed should be known about Gardasil. Personally, I feel this media institution should be charged with criminal intent to defraud the American public. The article contended that the HPV vaccine controversy was mostly political and that HPV vaccines were safe. It also noted that we have been vaccinating children for many years.

For those who prefer the truth over mainstream propaganda, here are five things you really need to know about HPV vaccines:

ONE: Merck needed a new cash cow to replace the billions in profits lost due to Vioxx finally being pulled from the market after it caused over 50,000 deaths. Mooooo...Gardasil was selected to become the new cash cow and, just like what happened with Vioxx, Merck has resorted to rigged and misreported study results and hidden evidence of the dangers of this drug too.

Initial Merck safety tests used a placebo, which was identical to the Gardasil vaccine minus the HPV virus components - instead of a truly benign placebo such as saline solution. The placebo contained highly toxic aluminum, polysorbate 80 and sodium borate - items whose side effects are markedly similar to those being experienced after Gardasil injections.

Actual trial data for Gardasil reveals that a shocking 73.3 percent of the participants who received Gardasil acquired a new medical condition ranging from flu-like symptoms to paralysis. Almost 60% had systemic reactions. The "placebo" recipients had similar results, but obviously no mere saline solution would have produced even a fraction of such reactions.

TWO: Studies have actually shown that Gardasil and its sister vaccine Cervarix (from GlaxoSmithKline) provide no protection for women already exposed to the HPV virus, and in fact present highly elevated risks for already exposed women as well as for expectant mothers. When the vaccine is administered to a woman with a dormant or harmless form of HPV, her likelihood of developing precancerous lesions increases by a staggering 44.6 percent!

The Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) has reported 45 cases of spontaneous abortion, or miscarriage, following Gardasil vaccination. At the time the vaccine was approved, five babies had been born with congenital birth defects after their mothers had been given Gardasil compared to zero in a placebo group. Later reports put the number of birth defects in the vaccinated group closer to 40.

THREE:  Vaccination safety organization SANE Vax announced that they discovered that Gardasil has been contaminated with a substance many government health and safety agencies classify as a bio-hazard. HPV recombinant DNA (rDNA) was found in 100% of the 13 samples which had different lot numbers and came from New Zealand, Australia, Spain, Poland, France, and three states in the U.S.

FOUR:  Due to lack of prescribing information furnished to doctors by Merck, doctors are reluctant to report adverse events and other factors; actual deaths and adverse events for Gardasil are hugely under-reported. It has been estimated that only 10% of adverse events for other vaccines are reported. With Gardasil the estimates range as low as 1%.

FIVE:  Anyone who doubts that Gardasil has caused deaths and permanent injuries and devastated families should check out the SANE Vax vaccine safety site (www.sanevax.org). The site, created by mothers of daughters killed or injured by HPV vaccines, details story after story illustrating the harm HPV vaccines can cause.

Again, I say do your own research. Ask questions and do not assume anything. Take responsibity for your health and the health of your young children.

THIS CHEMOTHERAPY THING HAS ME PISSED OFF!!

Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4

When I was diagnosed with cervical cancer and given the prognosis of 3-6 months my options were surgery followed by chemo, radiation and some kind of drug therapy. At the time, all I knew was that it just did not feel right to me that these were my only options.

My father had prostate cancer and he did everything the doctors told him to do and he let them do anything / everything they wanted to do to him, and for what? I watched my father suffer painfully through it all and loose the battle as he laid before me a mere skeletal shadow of what he once was.

I don’t trust doctors. I have yet to go to a doctor and not walk out with a little white notepad of paper for some wonder drug they think will cure what ails me.

When my doctor told me of my options for the cervical cancer, he never mentioned to me the various options within the options he offered. Never!

When it comes to cancer, doctors offer what is considered, Standard of Care. Basically, it is a cookie cutter answer to dealing with all cancers. Did you know that there are various forms of chemotherapy? Yeah, exactly! Neither did I! I was not told. I had to research this on my own!

Adriamycin, Toxotere and Cytoxan are just three of many. Adriamycin however is the most popular of the chemotherapy offered for Standard of Care and it is confirmed and documented in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute to be the most ineffective in up to 92% of women to whom it was offered. For women (and men) that are choosing chemotherapy for breast cancer, this particular drug has potentially very serious cardiac side effects.

Why can’t cancer be treated naturally? Why can’t we be given more choices? Why put a person through so much physical pain and mental / emotional anguish? Why not be given a choice? Why? Because there is profit in it. People of chosen ignorance are nothing more than guinea pigs for the medical industry. I say chosen ignorance because with all of the information readily available at one’s fingertips the less one sets out to find the truth the less likely the survival. Ignorance is a choice just like APPLIED knowledge.

There are numerous doctors around this country – the USA, that are making tremendous strides in cancer therapies – WITHOUT CHEMICALS.

Check this out, when you go to the doctor with say a nasty cold or flu, they will do a sensitivity test to see which antibiotics would best work for you. Did you know that the same can be done for cancer? Now if you ask your doctor, he/she will say it is ineffective. Crazy, right? They won’t do it because it is time consuming, which for them is not cost effective. The economics are “Let’s keep the assembly line going and herd though as many of the chosen ignorant as possible so we can maximize our profits.”

If you were to survey 100 doctors, 90 of them, if diagnosed with cancer would not take chemotherapy or radiation. Surprised? Don't be.

Farah Fawcett (Charle’s Angels) died of anal cancer. After going through two courses of excruciating, debilitating, immune-system-ruining chemotherapy, only to have the cancer return in 3 months, Farah went to Germany to have chemosensitivity test done. It was there she found out that the chemotherapy she was given in the USA was completely ineffective!

Begin to ask questions. Question everything when it comes to the health of you and your family. READ THE FREKIN SIDE EFFECTS of your therapy / drugs / etc. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH!

One of my favorite sites to visit is www.CancerTudor.com. Chuck full of information to apply to your daily life… BEFORE YOU ARE DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER.

Take Control!!

Hmmmm... that feel's better. OK, stepping down and away from the soapbox now.

See you on the other side of greatness!

ReEmergence


Hey Friends,

I know it has been a while since I have posted anything here. I just got caught up in a moment of some unconscious living for about 2.5 months. It was fun for a moment, but I have to tell you that I am paying the piper for my decision(s).

One thing I have come to learn over this bit of time is that sometimes, love really isn't enough, at least when it comes to making a decision to create a life with someone. This is another blog... we'll get to that at a later date.

One thing is that I am revamping my blog(s). There is so much I want to express / share. More than just wellness / health information on cervical cancer. I believe that much of what I have to say can help shed a light on many facets of why to approach health and healing from a WHOLE(listic) stand point.

Well, friends... there is much to share and as time goes on, I'm looking forward to sharing my journey with you.

The Not So Sexy Seduction of Sweeteners


Ok, so here we go again. I try to not let other people’s issues be my issues, but this is an ongoing work in progress for me. I guess someone has to care. Why not me?

I was speaking to a lady the other day and she was explaining to me that she is diabetic with high blood pressure. Looking at her eyes I could also see a propensity for heart dis-ease and with her extended abdomen, all I could think was - CLEANSE!

As we got wrapped up in conversation she asked me what I did for a living. I told her that I’m a naturopathic wellness coach and author and then shared with her my story of overcoming advanced cervical cancer without surgery, drugs, radiation or chemotherapy. Well, as per usual, that opened up a flood of questions. She was very interested to learn about my diet.

Now I have to digress for a moment. Whenever I get someone that asks about my diet and I begin to share with them my eating habits, it almost never fails that their response is, Oh my diet is healthy too! Of course with a little probing the truth always comes to the light. My inquisitive new friend shared with me how she takes time to make sure the foods she eats do not contain sugar. Her doctor told her that it would be better for her to use artificial sweeteners in lieu of her sugar addiction and this would also help her to lose weight. I tell you… it boggles my mind. Clearly some of our medical professionals are trapped in their ignorance, or they are just really in it for the money.

What you will find in a great majority of these artificial sweeteners is this little thing call aspartame, however, this little thing packs a deadly punch! Aspartame, also known as NutraSweet® has a very interesting checkered past. The FDA had received numerous research reports of the chemical effects this drug was having on the neuropathy of the laboratory animals. The reports were highly unfavorable, yet the FDA pushed it through anyway. Mind you that aspartame is not allowed in any of our neighboring countries. Here’s a little history for you:

Aspartame is the technical name for the brand names NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, and Equal-Measure. It was discovered by accident in 1965 when James Schlatter, a chemist of G.D. Searle Company, was testing an anti-ulcer drug. Aspartame was approved for dry goods in 1981 and for carbonated beverages in 1983. It was originally approved for dry goods on July 26, 1974, but objections filed by neuroscience researcher Dr John W. Olney and Consumer attorney James Turner in August 1974 as well as investigations of G.D. Searle's research practices caused the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to put approval of aspartame on hold (December 5, 1974). In 1985, Monsanto purchased G.D. Searle and made Searle Pharmaceuticals and The NutraSweet Company separate subsidiaries.

Aspartame accounts for over 75 percent of the adverse reactions to food additives reported to the FDA. Many of these reactions are very serious including seizures and death. A few of the 90 different documented symptoms listed in the report as being caused by aspartame include: Headaches/migraines, dizziness, seizures, nausea, numbness, muscle spasms, weight gain, rashes, depression, fatigue, irritability, tachycardia, insomnia, vision problems, hearing loss, heart palpitations, breathing difficulties, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, loss of taste, tinnitus, vertigo, memory loss, and joint pain.

So it has been approved by the FDA and the doctors say, Sure take it, it’s ok, it doesn’t mean for you to give your power away [again] and just go for the first little blue pack so seductive sweetness you see.

There is a wonderful documentary I just reviewed called Sweet Misery. Check out the trailer on YouTube:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-n-gA0wvi84


So MadSexy, why isn’t this public knowledge?
Well, actually it is public knowledge. Anyone can get this information, but few will do the necessary research to find it. My grandmother use to tell say to me, Baby if you ever what to hide anything important, put it in plain view or put it in a book.

We have all the information we could ever want right at our finger tips, yet people for the most part are spoiled and lazy. Unless there is drama attached to it, the attitude is like, Who cares?

Aspartame caused diseases are not headlined in the metro section of your daily newspapers like last night’s American Idol winner. This is because these incidents occur one at a time in thousands of different locations across the United States. Incidents such as: Birth Defects / Cancer (Brain Cancer) / Diabetes / Emotional Disorders / Epilepsy / Seizures, just to name a few, just don’t line the pockets of the FDA and their affiliate very well. It’s better to just keep you barefoot and ignorant.

Then there are those people that have been drinking diet soda and indulging in other no-sugar, low-sugar, sugar substitute foods so long that they do not associate their symptoms with the long-term use of aspartame. This includes those that are sadly dealing with neurological disorders that have destroyed a significant number of brain cells causing chronic illness (Alzheimer’s / Dementia / Schizophrenia / etc.)

If you drink diet sodas, if you eat or drink anything with any type of artificial sweetener and you are experiencing headaches, digestive issues, dizziness, weight gain, depression, mood swings, skin breakouts, joint pain, weakness, lethargy or anything that is substandard of feeling sexy, seriously… ixnay the substitutes.

As for my diabetic friend, she informed me that she will consult with her doctor to maybe cut down her consumption of NutraSweet. She finished off our conversation my saying, “Maybe the doctor could up my insulin.”

And the beat goes on….

The Not So Sexy Side of yet Another So-Called Miracle Cure for Cervical Cancer


I posted an article on my FaceBook a couple of days ago that came from the Mercola.com website. The article of the site in bold letters: Grieving Mother Blames Gardisil. With the article I posted

THIS DOESN'T LOOK LIKE IT'S PREVENTING CERVICAL CANCER TO ME:
HPV, In some cases the infection can result in genital warts, and MUCH LESS OFTEN, cervical and other genital cancers, but even the National Cancer Institute says: "It is important to note, however, that the great majority of high-risk HPV infections go away on their own and do not cause cancer."

Well, I received a very nimble reply back from one of my “friends” who is also a cancer survivor. She made sure to note on my wall that Gardisil is only used in the United States. The other countries, including Western Europe and Canada that have access to Gardisil do not use it. Instead they are choosing to shoot up their girls with a “new and improved” cervical cancer prevention med called Cevarix.


My friend twirled off with her note on my wall by saying, “As a cervical cancer patient myself, I will most certainly be having my daughter vaccinated when she is 11.”


Although I clearly understand her point, I could not help but to shake my head. Once again, we have another wonder drug on the market the promises the moon and the sky of protection for our girls and women. This junk has about as much research behind it as the other junk!


I’m sorry, but I get so frustrated when I come across people that are not willing to do the natural things that are necessary to keep and maintain their health, youth and vitality. Do you really think jabbing our daughters with a needle filled with God knows what is the answer?


Cervical cancer prevention is not in a needle, nor is it in a pill. Hell… cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, asthma, allergies, call it whatever you want, it is not a condition that just happens like rainfall. Sickness and dis-ease happens because of lifestyle. It boggles my mind to hear someone say, “No one knows what happened to ol’ So n’ So, he/she just fell ill.” No, So n’ So did not just fall ill! It takes time, consistency and commitment to lose your health. It also takes time, consistency and commitment to gain your health as well.


There is a certain diet and lifestyle that, when lived consistently will produce a certain outcome. Processed foods, fast foods, animal products, sugar and other unnatural consumptions rob the body of the energy needed to generate and express life and vitality. When we keep putting poor quality foods into our body, the result is a poor quality of health.


Food is only half the battle. The other half of the battle is all a state of mind. We become and attract what we think about.


What good will it do to shoot up our daughters and young women with these vaccinations, when we don’t provide them with the knowledge and understanding of how to care for their health? We will shovel sugar laced, fried lard carcass, canned chemicalized vegetation, cheap boxed gourmet sodium meals in our face day after day and not even think about a piece of fresh, organic anything. To top it all off, we will wash it all down with a diet soda, kool-aid or a “healthy” sweet drink.


And now let’s talk about the fact that the research on this stuff is still not complete. What is this new wonder drug going to do in over the next five, ten or fifteen years?


We really have to stop giving our power away and become responsible for our own care and wellness. Take care of your body and your body will take care of you. To help the body to deter cervical cancer... heck, any type of cancer, diabetes, or any immune disorder, work on raising the immune system!!


This is just my humble opinion.
