Coping with cancer: What to do if you are diagnosed with cancer 

Hearing a diagnosis of cancer can be can be very hard for the patient as well as family and friends. In advanced cancers it can even be perceived as a completely hopeless situation. Fear and panic sets in. Some patients surrender to the prognosis while others decide their time has not come and want to live. For those who decide that life has something to offer to them, Gerson therapy offers hope and perspective.
WHAT TO DO: First view the diagnosis as a challenge not as a sentence. Every challenge can be turned into a learning experience. Then look at every aspect of your life and see what you like and what you do not like.
LEARN ABOUT CANCER: First of all – what is the cause of cancer? Many doctors have no idea. Here is the answer: Cancer is due to toxicity and deficiency. And your state of mind.

Bone marrow suppression, a decreased ability to manufacture red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets, is a common side effect of chemotherapy. Chemotherapy targets rapidly dividing cells and does not differentiate between the bad cells, cancer cells and bone marrow cells, that will later become red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. This is why chemotherapy side effects often are anemia and leukopenia.

The issue with low blood cell count after chemotherapy is a major problem because it makes the patient susceptible to infection and to cancer regrowth. Therefore it is important to rebuild the immune system right after chemotherapy. Read about our cancer recovery program
