So You Have Been Diagnosed With BREAST CANCER...7 things you should not do!

So you have been DIAGNOSED WITH BREAST CANCER and you are totally confused. The Medical doctors are explaining a treatment program for you; the herbal or natural doctors are doing the same; family and friends and calling to share things you can do and use; people are trying to sell you things that are good for you; a lot is going through your head right now; you are worried and concerned; YOU ARE JUST NOT SURE WHAT TO DO. Believe me, I know, I have been there.

MY TESTIMONY PART ONE:
In April of 2008, I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer which had matastised to both breast and in my lymph nodes. My prognosis was not good because of my stage, and primarily because of my receptor. Most patient's breast cancer is triggered by estrogen, which is easier to treat, mine was not. I had never heard about "HER-2 protein" before, but I did then. It is that rear form of breast cancer receptor that the doctors have not had much success in treating. I was told by one doctor, that if I did not take the drug HERCEPTIN (to block the Her-2 protein and cancer from spreading) I would be gone from here in about 6 months.

If you are diagnosed with Breast Cancer, here are 7 things you absolutely should not do:
  1. Do not "Do Nothing". Some people are so shocked that they do not want to accept it, or think about it and they just do nothing. Cancer does not just disappear. If you want to live you must do somethings.
  2. Do not "Fear" or "Be Afraid". If you allow yourself to become afraid and fearful you will add more stress to your body and that weakens your immune system. The bible saids that God has not given us a spirit of fear but of a sound mind. You need to make sound judgement from hear on.
  3. Do not "Hide your sickness". If you are a celebrity your fans will find out anyhow. If you are a regular person like me you will soon find out that you need people to help you. Never underestimate the power of prayers. You need the prayers, support and help of family, friends and church brethren. People cannot pray for or help you if they do not know.
  4. Do not "Turn Against Medical Doctors". Even if you believe only in the power of herbs you should recognize that doctors are trained and they are doing there best to help you. At the same time, be careful not to rush into a treatment plan without giving it serious thought. Remember it's all about Common Sense Cancer.
  5. Do not violate "The Laws of Nature".  No body can live a healthy life without following the 8 laws of health. They are an absolute must for cancer patients and others who want to avoid cancer. Violating the laws of nature is one of the main reason why we get cancer.
  6. Do not ever let anyone make you believe that "You're going to die". As long as you have life there is hope. If you give up in your mind then it will be very difficult for your body to fight to live. You must develop a strong faith in God. Talk to Him as you talk to a friend. Ask Him to forgive you and help you to beat your cancer. Then, begin to listen for His answer.
  7. Finally, Do not Underestimate the Promises of God. God said He will not put these diseases upon you, if you will do what He ask you to do. And, if you do have a disease, he will heal you. Believe God when He makes a promise. He is faithful. He does not change. We make mistakes, He does not.
