My mother has had cancer three times now - womb/bowel/lung. My aunt died of cervical cancer - a beautiful soul. My niece's mind and body were badly damaged by the treatment that she received for a brain tumour as a child. She still has tumours growing in her brain and is now approaching forty years old. That they have suppressed treatment no longer shocks me but it does appall me to my core. I feel emotional reading your post knowing how much pain could be taken from people's lives if others were honest and decent. Everything you write is worth reading, however intermittently it appears. Keep going. The world needs people like you.
There are different kinds of hierarchies, not all of which will that insight apply to.
For instance, groups of men left to their own devices self-organize into competence hierarchies, wherein only those who can lead are allowed to lead a group of men. This is obvious anytime you see groups of random men tackle any task from things as simple as moving someone out of their house, to raising a barn for their neighbor.
Only the general-corruption or denigration of raw masculinity's typical influence in society has allowed hierarchies to turn into cesspits where social-climbing is regarded more highly than competence.
I founded a nonprofit with a donation from American Cancer Society, where we had our office, based on a clinical trial eligibility screening system of my design.
At the time pharma was not complying with the heath care modernization act which called for submitting all their trials to clinicaltrials.gov. We used web extraction and had a more complete data set then even clinicaltrials.gov.
We didn’t accept pharma donations. It was a 13 year effort in total. In the end we simply didn’t have the budget to keep up the fight.
"Evil is banal." Yes and most of us have not come to terms with that. They don't care about us is right. I think this is why there is so much cognitive dissonance and lame attempts at explaining away what we've been through. (They 'got it wrong' makes us feel better, we prefer to: 'They know what they are doing; they are killing, harming and experimenting on us.' )
Thank you. I look forward forward to future posts.
Hi Monica. I found your newsletter through Toby Rogers and look forward to your telling. Thank you for your contribution to breaking out of this “care” model. It’s interesting how similarly we have each formulated our different questions. Here’s what I’m looking into:
“Rather, I want to focus on a sort of psychiatric anthropology. How have so many Canadian physicians come to support this conclusion:
This patient is so depressed that the most humane thing we can do is euthanize her.
Read: Otherwise healthy twenty- and thirty- and forty-something Canadians are going to start being euthanized.”
Monica, if you need help, we are here. Be careful the government will take your funds if we donate, or worse. But you have our support. We need a PARALLEL way of doing things. And you are totally right about hierachies. The sociopaths always rise to the top. I beleive God does things for a reason, but this I cannot fathom. Insight welcome.
im no expert in cancer but there are common threads to it, like cancers need for glucose, if one were to go on a restrictive diet with no carbs or sugars (like a meat only diet) i would fully expect a stalling of most types of cancer.
i guarantee pharma would suppress the hell out of an idea like this because it isn't profitable
Your cancer treatment sounds very compelling. Sadly they don't have the slightest interest in improving the human condition or conducting real science I've heard of so many things that showed promise that were shut down. Even my intended master's thesis on the placebo effect, which I still think should be done and replicated, was shut down due to lack of interest/funding. It's a sad world we live in but perhaps the silver lining is that people are not able to turn a blind eye this time...
well release the fullest details of the treatment and there's at least some chance that it'll start getting made somewhere. don't get too insular - remember we think we're the centre of the world and even think we are the whole world - but actually there's many, many other nations and peoples out there....

Thank you. No words. Heartfelt. My god, what have we allowed to be done to ourselves.

Excited to engage with your work!
I did not expect to read the words Coley's toxins today. This just massively increased my interest in your Substack and in your personal story.

Take good care of yourself.

Thank you Monica. We've known that they didn't care about us, we just didn't want to believe it.
Hell yes!! I stand with you!
Monica, sounds like you may be on a fruitful track. Good luck.
Hi Monica—I am a retired pathologist. I have lost count of the number of people I have sent your Coleys Toxins article.
Can you please tell me how to get in direct contact with you? My email is jfisher0118@gmail.com
It’s important
Thank you

Interesting... Any thoughts on S.R. Burzynski's cancer treatments?
