Shopping Guide
We all like to look our best, but sometimes dont know where to find those articles of clothing etc. that help us feel better about ourselves when we are feeling low or where to go for a pep-me-up when we need to feel more human again. Hopefully we can help to some extent. Although we dont sell anything ourselves, please find below a list of suppliers who we recommend, along with a brief description of what they do, and how to get in contact with them.

PAINLESS CANCER CURES & Preventions Your Doctor May Not Be Aware Of (book)
The book is about alternative cancer therapies, non-toxic treatments without chemo & radiation that have cured many cancer patients. There are many people fighting (for example) terminal brain cancers that have no idea that there are non-toxic cures for terminal brain cancer that do NOT involve chemo or radiation. I worked with med-surg patients in hospitals and was appalled when many of my patients did not die of cancer, but from the chemo and radiation they received. I also lost 3 family members to cancer BEFORE I ever knew most of the information in this book! I followed bone marrow & stem cell transplant patients for an insurance company - so I know some of the awful things that people go through when they undergo chemo and radiation. I wrote this book after studying alternative cancer remedies.
The book can be ordered at amazon.co.uk, barnesandnoble.com, amazon.com and most online bookstores in the U.S., Canada, Europe and the United Kingdom. Just type in the name of the book. It is a 728 page book, packed full with information on every major cancer as well as some rare cancers, and alternative cures! Feel free to post this note on your bulletin board if you wish. There is also more info at www.painlesscancercures.com. Contact me at my email address (you or your members) if you wish!
