Thankyou so much for your response. Just to clarify my father has not, notopted to have chemo , this apparantly is not the right treatment forhis prostate cancer that has spread and initially he was not offeredany radiation however they have now offered him a dose of radiation asthe pain caused from the bone metastis is bad. Are there any otherfoods apart from apricot seeds he should eat? I have now ordered a copyof the Little cyanide cookbook. At present my father is unsure of whatto do for the best. Are the B17 tablets safe? Are apricot seeds safe? Ihave done a lot of reading and feel that whilst people are saying theseare not safe they are quite happy to accept that Chemotherapy issafe!!!!! It dosen't make sense to me as whilst I accept thatchemotherapy can and does work in a lot of cases, it is also very toxicand I know of people that have died as a result of so much chemocausing their immune systems to practically shut down that they are nolonger able to fight infections. All I want is to help my father beforeit is too late. His prognosis at the moment is "who knows", the Doctorshave said it could be a year or very best case up to 10 years possibly.How is that helpful to us as a family. I feel let down at the momentand my Dad just wants to and has to at the moment beleive that theDoctors are doing everything that they can. Sometimes howevermedication is not always the right answer and I feel we have to look atanything that we can do. My father has started incorporating foods intohis diet but is a bit uneasy at the thought of taking tablets notprescribed by a Doctor this is why I thought of the dietary element. Ifhe can eat food to try and help he will and as he has said there willcome a point where he will try anything but this has happened all sofast hes unsure at the moment which is the way forward.

 

Ido appreciate your response and I'm sorry if I have rambled. I justfeel helpless and all I want to do is help. or if I am honest all Iwant to do is cure him. I am not a medical person so this is not anoption.

 

Many Thanks for your time
