when they come here for two or three weeks to do treatment. Such support helps people with cancer to attain the best possible results from their treatments.
Roadblocks to Healing
    One of the biggest roadblocks to healing is being able to effectively educate patients about their treatments. If we can’t do that, then they won’t get great treatment results. For example, people with advanced cancers need to understand that we can’t usually get rid of their cancers with just a single anti-cancer medication. We need to use a combination of medications and we may need to adjust and perhaps even change those medications after a couple of months. If patients try to save money because they think, “Why should I take four meds when I can take one?” and they then decide to take only one medication, their cancers may respond for awhile to that medication, but eventually, it will be insufficient and their cancers will progress.
    We have patients that visit us from all over the world. Sometimes their oncologists are supportive of the treatments that they do with us, and at other times, they aren’t. If the oncologists aren’t supportive, they may do things like tell their patients to take only one of the medications which we have prescribed them, instead of all four. If patients do this, then they won’t get a good response to thetreatment; even if they were initially responding to our protocol, they will stop progressing. This kind of thing tends to happen in Canada, where patients don’t have as much medical freedom as in other countries and doctors tend to discourage them from taking all of the medications we have prescribed. This can be an obstacle to our patients’ healing, which is why it’s very important for us to educate them. We have three seminars every week to educate both patients and doctors about our treatments so that they know why we must use different combinations of medications. If we can educate them, and they follow through with their treatment plans, then we get very good results.
Insurance Coverage for Treatments
    Many insurance companies cover our treatments, but it depends upon the patient’s insurance plan. We have patients who spend zero dollars out of pocket for our treatments, while others spend a lot of their own money. We have a very good medical insurance department which evaluates these issues.
The Politics of Cancer Treatment in the United States and My Battle with the FDA
    I present my successful case stories all over the world and the FDA has reviewed all of them, so my work is being carefully controlled and monitored. We have many successful cases which the FDA has documented, but it should take only one successful case to create a revolution in medicine—and at one time, it did.
    Approximately 140 years ago, in France, Louis Pasteur was able to cure a boy who had a horrible brain disease called rabies. He developed a vaccine for the rabies and the boy was cured, and his vaccine changed medical history. We have many cases of so-called incurable brain disease which we have cured at our clinic, but instead of supporting us, the government has fought us from the beginning. Everyone is still trying to get rid of us, instead of giving us all the support that they can, so that we can save thousands of children from incurable brain tumors.
    Can you imagine? Medicine in the United States has become totalitarian. It’s controlled by bureaucrats. Doctors have no say in their patients’ treatments. The human being is put last, and as a result, there has been no evolution in cancer treatment. The work environment for medical doctors is so suffocating and restrictive in this country that it’s impossible for them to practice medicine in a manner which takes into account the best interests of the patient. This is unfortunate, but that’s the country in which we live now.
    In other countries, the situation is somewhat different. People say that in Japan everything is controlled, but when it comes to
