Meet Larry Overcast- Retired Firefighter becomes Breast Cancer Missionary:

Image
From an Interview with Awareness for a Cure reporter in 9/19/2018 They say you're cancer-free but in the back of your mind, there's always a chance of the 'boogerman' will jump up and get'ya. I was a Shelbyville firefighter back in 1973, and I worked there until '76. then I came back in '86 and officially retired 2011; the whole time, we didn't have any breathing (protection) apparatus. I worked there of a total, probably 33 years as a firefighter; a driver; a captain, but this captain still had to fight fires. We call it fire hall number one- as one of three stations in the city of Shelbyville, Tennessee.  When I came back in '86 they started carrying respiratory protection on their trucks, but we didn't use em, and then with all the new plastics and the new synthetic materials and stuff coming out; I think I was one of the first ones that started using it because I didn't want all that stuff in my lungs. Out of it, they say I've got a t...

Image
Meet some of the many remarkable men who have overcome the battle against Male Breast Cancer.  Read their stories and get inspired by their strengths and the will to rise above this debilitating disease.  Thanks to the loving support from the Male Breast Cancer Coalition , awareness and resources are made available for men and their families worldwide. BRET MILLER My breast cancer was 88% estrogen based and I was prescribed Tamoxifen. The side effects were awful, I didn’t realize it at first but I was moody, having hot flashes and was not pleasant to be around. After six weeks, I was taken off the Tamoxifen.  Right now, I’m taking Anastrozole daily. My mission now is to spread the word to everyone, men & women, young & old, that breast cancer does not discriminate, it can happen to anyone at any age and to MEN too!  On May 19, 2010, I started The Bret Miller 1T Foundation with the help of my parents Peggy & Bob Miller. Only 1 T in my name and now ...

9/11 Responder Joins Awareness Mission to Battle Cancer Threats

Image
MESSAGE FROM A 9/11 RESCUE RESPONDER "I (still) see and hear about people being diagnosed with cancer every single day from 9/11.  I'm afraid there's no end in sight-- It's because of this that I'm so driven to get myself checked out regularly... and I also try to get everyone to get screenings.  However way I can do that, if it's through an article in the paper, if it's something online, anything that we can do... it's gotta happen!" - Richard Marrone I worked for FDNY EMS during 9/11 to assist in the rescue recovery efforts, working  out of Battalion 55 in the South Bronx.   I got there after the towers had collapsed and was assigned there on and off for 10 months.  THE KILLER DUST It was just everywhere. The DUST was so thick it would dry your eyes out. You couldn't breathe. As EMS, that was a lot of what we were doing was just constantly cleaning people's eyes out. There's nothing you can do to get away from it.  I know what was in ...

Surviving the Global Breast Implant Cancer Epidemic- BIA-ALCL

WHAT IS INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE?

Image
"For the America that seeks REAL WELLNESS... for every patient that is overly medicated with prescription drugs and whose bodies are destroyed by side effects, HOPE comes from smart research, proactive education and awareness!" -  Richard Larsen (author of "Raising Gilda") Before big pharma and the insurance industry became the political machine that it is today (mandating what is medicine for the people) there were doctors who treated you until you were well. These doctors cared. They knew their patients by name and many even did house calls. They were knowledgeable and they were focused on your WELL-ness when this word meant "no longer sick". That same spirit is alive and well today- just under a slightly different name: INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE. An Integrative medical practice is conducted by actual MD's (real licensed doctors with a medical degree) but also have advanced additional knowledge in the expanded global healing arts (eastern, holistic, acu, ...

DR. STEPHEN ATKINS: A SENSIBLE TREATMENT STRATEGY FOR THE TOUGHEST DISEASES

Image
Most conventional and alternative medicine practitioners  focus on giving you something to remove your problem. Unfortunately, if your pathways of elimination remain blocked and are not free flowing, receiving any treatment does not really solve the problem; it only travels it from a place where your body has neatly tucked it away to the general circulation. Now the problem gets greater. So if you take the time to open the pathways of elimination, get things open and free flowing, when you get around to removing the causative factor of illness, those toxins can now freely flow out of the body. For about 38 years, my practice primarily treats cancer, autoimmune disease, and infectious disease- the more hard to treat kind of cases. My belief is that healing happens in a multi-phase system.  There's improving Digestion, Opening the "waste pathways" of the body (Neuroendocrine Function) such as the Kidney, Liver and Lymphatic Function), removing the Causative Factor Of Illnes...

John Feal and the FealGood Foundation: ENSURING CANCER CARE FOR 9/11 FIRST RESPONDERS

Image
Nesconset, NY (April 20, 2018) - Meet Long Island's own John Feal- a former Ground Zero contractor injured on the 9/11 job site and turned national super-advocate & champion for the prevalence of the 9/11 VICTIMS COMPENSATION FUND, THE WORLD TRADE CENTER HEALTH PROGRAM and the JAMES ZADROGA ACT. He founded the FEALGOOD FOUNDATION, the largest 9/11 support organization in the country-borne from frustration to the inaction and lack of governmental support. He built a life-long career out of helping the many health victims from the 2001 disaster receive the financial compensation they deserve and gain a complete understanding of their rights for all 9/11 related injuries. His non-profit org is recorded as one of the largest fundraisers for this mission- amassing over $8.5M of active funding for the compensation bill plus another $5M raised to add to the WTC fund for first responders (since the inception of FGF in 2005) from online donations and public fundraising. John Feal became...
