decided to give her a drink, adding a few drops of Essiac to the distilled water. Tigger drank it. We continued to do this until, a short while later, she was able to walk again.
    “Over the next two months, our cat completely recovered. All of her fur grew back and she never looked better. Now she plays like a kitten again. Today she was examined by a vet and her heart, teeth, eyes, ears and all her body parts are in purrr-fect condition. ”
     
    As a guide for treating animals, it is best to assess the dosage according to their weight. A cat weighing eleven pounds is doing well on 2ml daily whereas a large and heavy dog of 120 pounds would need an adult dose of 30ml daily.

Attitude & Understanding

     
    Doctors differ as to how much they think you should be told about your condition. Some have to be virtually held to ransom before they will tell you anything, others will be much more forthcoming with a little encouragement. We have had reports of consultants and oncologists advising their patients to keep taking Essiac because of their markedly less severe reaction to the side effects induced by conventional therapies, all of which deplete the immune system and energy levels. One oncologist commented that he did not object to Essiac as he was well aware of the limitations of chemotherapy.

    Illness obliges you to become much more aware of your body. You have little choice but to give it more than the usual amount of attention and inevitably to allow a whole variety of previously unknown people to give it a lot of sometimes unwelcome attention. That does not mean that you must immediately become a passive, acquiescent shadow of who aw you were before you knew you were ill. You are asked to sign the consent forms and so have the right to be directly involved in the decision making process. It is important to remember that your living and dying are uniquely individual experiences, and so is your illness. No two people are born in exactly the therapies same way; no two people live in exactly the same way; no two people die in exactly the same way; no two people are ill in exactly the same way.
     
     
    Seeing the Doctor — Keeping Control of YOU
     
    All prognoses are purely hypothetical. A doctor’s experience is limited entirely to other people’s experience, not yours. You are in charge of you until your very last breath. You are in charge of your illness, whatever it may be, and you are in charge of the treatment. You are entitled to ask direct questions about your condition and the necessity and outcome of all proposed therapies, both in conventional and alternative medicine. As the parents of a dying child you should have unlimited access to all the continually updated medical notes. If you are considered to be sufficiently responsible to be kept fully informed about your child’s illness, are you not equally entitled to be considered sufficiently responsible to be kept fully informed about your own?
    Your illness is not failure. It is your greatest challenge, presenting you with the perfect opportunity to find out what your body needs and doesn’t need. When you are first told that you have cancer, the chemistry of the disease is generally the last thing you have time to think about. All you want to know is how you are going to get rid of it. In that situation ‘free radicals’ don’t mean a lot unless you are already a scientist or a doctor. Most of us are not. We find radiation or chemotherapy or a combination of both being recommended to us and we go along with whatever sounds the best, because that is what is available and we will take anything in the desperate hope that something is going to work.
    The very word ‘cancer’ can conjure fear. Fear induces a state of semi-paralysis, mentally, physically and emotionally. When the doctor has a file with your name and ‘cancer’ written all over it on the desk in front of him, allow yourself time and space for the inevitable shock to
