7 treatments for cancer you've probably never heard of.

• Gaston Naessens – Dr. Naessens treatment is based on the theory that cancer is caused by a friendly microorganism called somatids ("little bodies") -- which are present in all cells -- that becomes unfriendly. His formula, 714X, provides nitrogen to the cancer cells, thus causing this microorganism to cease excreting their toxic compounds, and mobilize your immune system to kill the cancer cells. He was subsequently put on trial for his cancer discoveries.
  
• Raymond Rife – Rife used resonance to kill viruses and cancer cells. By increasing the intensity of a frequency that resonates naturally with each microbe, the Rife machine increases their natural oscillations until they distort and disintegrate from structural stress. Rife called this frequency 'the mortal oscillatory rate,' or 'MOR', and it was found to do no harm to surrounding healthy tissues.
  
• Stanislaw Burzynski -- Dr. Burzynski, founder of the Houston-based Burzynski Institute, treats cancer patients with substances called antineoplastons. He was indicted by a grand jury in 1995 for his use of antineoplastons– his second trial that year. He was acquitted.
  
• Hulda Clark – Dr. Clark has invented several devices, such as the Syncrometer and the Zapper, that scans and eliminates parasites, bacteria, viruses and toxins through positive offset frequencies.
  
• Antonella Carpenter -- Dr. Carpenter at LaseMed Inc. has an FDA approved cancer treatment called LIESH therapy (Light Induced Enhanced Selective Hyperthermia), using a proprietary photo-dynamic form of laser. Her technology is not embraced by the AMA, however.
  
• John Holt – Operating out of The Radiowave Clinic in Australia for the past 30 years, Dr. Holt’s treatment consists of an intravenious dose of "glycolytic metabolic inhibitors" (GMI) -- agents that disrupt the metabolism of cancer cells -- immediately prior to exposure to radiowaves of 434 MHz in the ultra-high frequence (UHF) band.
  
• Ryke Geerd Hamer – Dr. Hamer’s “German New Medicine” (GNM), operates under the premise that every disease, including cancer, originates from an unexpected shock experience, and that all disease can be cured by resolving these underlying emotional traumas. Despite a 95 percent success rate, Dr. Hamer has spent time in prison for refusing to disavow his medical findings and stop treating his patients with his unorthodox techniques, and is currently living in exile, seeking asylum from persecution.

That kid sounds like my brother Richie.

This seems to be an entire genre on YouTube. I think it started with this one:

Apparently my double cousin Erena has postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome.

Interestingly, double cousins (which happen when you are a cousin to someone on both your mother's and your father's side -- in my case my father's brother had children with my mother's sister) are exactly as closely related genetically as half-siblings are.

Also interestingly, I read the symptoms of POTS and I experience a very mild form of one of its symptoms. Whenever I get up, my blood pressure takes a while to stabilize, and unless I do it carefully I'll feel faint. The same goes for standing up in the shower, standing in place for too long in general. This may be the reason I dislike chairs.

Nonetheless, compared to how bad she has it, it's not worth mentioning. I feel bad for her.

Trivia: her wedding was the first (and so far, the only) wedding I've ever been to, I think it was around 15-20 years ago or so. I don't remember it that well, only fragments, seeing as I was pretty young when it happened.
