1. There is a new book on Amazon called Coffee or Chemo by Edina Atkinson. Its charts the route of an alternative journey taken regarding treatment and healing.

2. Friend diagnosed with ovarian stage 3C

   Background.

   I live in Indonesia my friend is Indonesian and is currently in a hospital in Jakarta.

   She has ovarian stage 3C

   They want to start her on chemo in 4 weeks.

   Next steps

   I have overcome an autoimmune disease through functional medicine protocols, this was not recommended by my doctor(s), but here I am today healthier than ever and not needing to take any medication. I understand cancer and the treatment thereof has a similar story. Dr Rhonda Patrick talks of starving cancer with fasting and then goes onto explain the science.

   The clock is ticking.

   What would your recommendation be for the next steps we should take. I understand there a special clinics she can go to, but they may be too expensive and far away. However I’m open to reviewing them and starting a fundraiser.

   Ideally we could speak to a specialized consultant who could help build us a plan…. ie what doctor to speak to, what potential clinics would be available. Does something like this exists?

   Or do you have recommendations for

   We are immensely grateful for any help or advice at this stage.

   Thank you

4. Hmm, invited to attend the vaccine discussion last night via Zoom last night at 7PM . Wondering why I wasn’t able to attend, I’m in North Carolina. Could it be that we are in different time zones, I would like to attend this series.

5. Hi,

   In January 2019 I hit myself in the right breast by accident. A large bump developed and was thought to be a haematoma. It filled was filled with liquid which was drained twice. The second time (Jan. 2020) a biopsy was done and it turned out to be cander grade 2. I have chosen for a natural therapy and am very happy I found your site. I would like to share a little funny story with you.
   You write that you didn’t like cottage cheese and had some trouble eating it the first times. Fortunately, I like cottage cheese and found it rather pleasant to eat. But to my surprise my ginger cat, Harry, licked the bowl clean when I had finished with it. He now comes to sit with me and waits for me to finish my Budwig mixture!
   Thanks once again and lots of love from The Netherlands,
   Mrs Marjan Tijsma

   • Hi Marjan! I hope this finds you well. I am so glad you’re finding the mixture enjoyable. All my best to you (and your sweet cat!) -Cortney

6. I thought Dr. Budwig said NOT to take supplements with her protocol. Or was that only certain supplements that were forbidden?

   Reply

   • I read this in her book about 8 years after my cancer time. I would be more careful with spacing out, but I think supplements today are much different than supplements in the 1940’s and 50’s! Spacing them away from the mixture, especially Vitamin C would be wise but the food-based vitamins and herbal remedies would be fine imo.

8. My close friend Jane noticed a golf-ball sized lump in her breast 6 months ago and went to see her doctor. Jane was told her lump was “suspicious to moderate” in severity and her doctor wanted to do a biopsy right there. But she has a serious phobia of doctors and needles, so she found alternative treatments, including this one, online without getting the biopsy (hoping her new nutrition lifestyle would shrink the lump to zero size. Not much has changed. Is it important that she get a biopsy to find out if the lump is malignant or benign? Thanks so much! -Sol

   • It depends who you talk to. Some people believe biopsies spread breast cancer and there’s convincing evidence. She needs to look into that in order to make an educated decision. Obviously she needs to know what she’s dealing with. And there are varying degrees of what “alternative treatment is. If I were her I would get some thermography done on the area and consult with alternative doctors familiar with breast cancer. I did not have breast cancer and am not an expert in that area.

10. Hi,
    During one year already,I do the Budwig diet,eat only organic fruit and vegetable and avoid all sorts of toxins.But he metastasis in my lung have increased more than 2cm in one year and I now have also lymphoms on my neck.
    Must I choose another protocol.Perhaps Budwig is not working for me?
    Sincerely
    Nancy

    Reply

    • Nancy, I always suggest that when choosing alternative means to healing that you monitor very carefully- reassessing every 8-12 weeks.YES- if what you are doing now is not working you need to add additional protocols or change your current protocol altogether. xoxoxo

    • There are quite a bit in Atlanta now. Mine retired!

      • Hi Cortney, do you mind to share a recommendation for holistic doctor in Atlanta. I see that your is already retired.
        I am in Atlanta and looking for someone who might be able to help me to adjust a protocol for my case, since there are so many outthere and some are contradictory…
        Thank you very much in advance for any ideas. Best, Irina

12. Dear Cortney.
    I hope you see this soon. My son was recently diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma. I shared with him the option of defeating this disease with a complete lifestyle change to healthy anti-cancer eating and exercise. I found you through Chrisbeatcancer. My son had a question for you. He was wondering about once you had started this journey, how long was it before you saw a noticeable reduction in lymph node swelling?

    Reply

    • Hi John, we messaged over email already but I’ll reply here, too. My lymph node waxed and waned for several months before finally decreasing with ongoing use of Essiac tea. Around the sixth month it was completely gone. That was in 2009.

13. I am a patient and a physician with Hodgkin’s lymphoma, I was wondering without trying to be rude but have you ever released any “Proof” that you had hodgkin’s at all. As a man of science, great claims need greater proof. I do enjoy your story but with all the people out there faking their diagnosis for financial gain, prove that you had cancer at all. I just worry about you misleading others into avoiding treatment that has cure rates into the 90% range. So do you have any substantiation?

    Reply

    • Hey Dylan, you are only the second person in 7 years of blogging to ask me for proof. I’m not too keen on sharing my medical records to the internet, but enough reading and I’m sure you can see the integrity in my posts. Perhaps on my tenth remission anniversary I’ll put it out there once I figure out how to blur personal info text in Photoshop. 🙂

14. Hi not sure if you still write on this blog since the last post are from 2016. But my husband has just been diagnosed with the same thing as you had. Type 2 HL. After hearing about the side affects of the chemo we decided we would embark on this natural journey. My question to you is which doctor did you see to assist you with your journey? I see you mention Szabo which ironically is also our oncologist but you mention that you sought treatment elsewhere. Can you please help me out? Thanks!

    Reply

    • Hi Issa, that’s a crazy coincidence that Szabo is your oncologist! I didn’t receive “treatment” necessarily but went to receive detox and immersion of the raw foods lifestyle and Living Foods Institute.

15. what do you recommend to people who have had one HCG test and then the next one their number has gone up instead of down?
    thanks!

    Reply

    • Hi Denise, if your number goes up and you are otherwise feeling OK, I would keep on your anti-cancer diet, supplements, and protocol OR increase the intensity of your protocol. Address emotional issues, increase detox (colonics, coffee enemas, etc.) add Essiac if you aren’t doing it yet. Address mercury feelings and root canals for removal. Then, retest in 6-8 weeks. If numbers haven’t changed or you feel worse, then you need to reevaluate what you’re doing. Are you doing additional testing besides hcG? If you can, it is helpful to have other cancer testing done alongside the hcG.

16. Courtney:

    By now, you have heard that Bill Henderson has Lymphoma. I was wondering if you would care to comment on how such a man could contract this disease? I have read and follow Bill’s book, as you seem to do to a degree yourself and I was wondering if the latest news of Bill’s condition has you reeling like it has me. I simply don’t see how Bill could coach people who have cancer and then contract the disease himself. I have written to Bill but I have received no answer. Thanks for your anticipated input.

    Reply

    • Hi Vern, yes it is true that Bill has cancer. He notified all of his readers in his last newsletter. MY thoughts are that Bill is 83. In the last few years he has been open about enjoying life…traveling the world, enjoying meals with family, and not following the cancer diet he recommends for people with cancer (and admittedly he never has followed it 100% because he has never had cancer!) In all honesty, it is a bit disheartening at first, but when you sit to think about it and have lived this lifestyle like I have (and have heard so many people’s stories,) you can see how it wouldn’t be impossible to get cancer even if you are doing so much right. There is no 100% to avoiding cancer. I wish Bill the absolute best and pray he will heal completely and will have much to teach and tell us.
