Hi, my name is Karen. I am a “FOUR-TIME CANCER SURVIVOR OF CERVICAL, COLON, LIVER AND RECTAL CANCER”. I am writing this asking you to help me get my story out to the world, so that in return, there will be millions of people who find Comfort, Healing and HOPE. Have you ever wondered how in the world that one person can survive so much pain and suffering in their life? Well, I would love to share with you how I went from despair to joy. Would you like to find out what it's like from a cancer patients point of view? Our bodies are miraculous!! It's amazing how much abuse, pain, surgery, poking and prodding that a body can endure. Mine has come through 14 different surgeries in just the last 14 years. Walk with me as I share my journey through this incredible ordeal. It has taken a lot of personal development on my part to get me through the trauma. My story could possibly be your story. There are probably many things that we have in common, you just haven't written yours down yet. At the age of 25, I was diagnosed with cervical cancer. At 32, I was diagnosed with a Vertebral Artery Dissection in the brain. In June of 2001, at 38, I was once again diagnosed with Cancer. This time of the Colon, I prayed for God to get me through this and once again he delivered me. He wasn’t finished with me yet, so in February 2002, at 39, I was diagnosed with Cancer of the Liver. I told God that I would bear the load if only I could touch one person. He allowed me to touch more than one; he has allowed me to touch thousands. Before going into surgery for the Cancer of the Liver, the doctors told me to get my affairs in order because I probably wouldn’t make it through this time. I told them that they weren’t God, and that he would decide when it was time for me to go. Little did I know that he had more in store for me, In June of 2003, at 40, I was diagnosed with Rectal Cancer. They told me I would have a permanent colostomy and basically not much of a life. They wanted me to go to counseling, but God wanted me to be the counselor. Have you ever wondered what your family member or friends are going through when they are diagnosed with cancer? There is something you can do to help. I guarantee that you will travel an emotional highway as you live through the experiences with me. You will laugh, you will cry, and you will rejoice with me as you find the answers that you have been searching for. In conclusion, I just want to sing and share my testimony with the world.My prayer is that my book will be a blessing to you and your loved ones. It has been very healing for me to write. I look forward to sharing my whole story with you in my book: One Woman’s Story: How I Survived Cervical, Colon, Liver and Rectal Cancer. Or better yet, I would love to meet you in person, so that I can share my story with you. Please contact me for further questions, or feel free to visit my website @ www.4xcancersurvivor.com . In His Grip, Karen www.4xcancersurvivor.com fourxsurvivor@yahoo.com

NON-TOXIC 100% NATURAL & NO-SIDE EFFECTS!
Triamazon selectively targets only cancer cells including MDR Multi-Drug-Resistent cells without harming the normal healthy cells, independent research shows astounding results for many cancers and tumors. Go to the website to download "The Research White Paper" it can be found halfway down on the homepage of www.Triamazon.com

HOW TRIAMAZON WORKS... One of the ways that cancer cells develop resistance to chemotherapy drugs is by creating an intercellular pump which is capable of pushing anticancer agents out of the cell before they can kill it. On average, only about two percent of the cancer cells in any given person might develop this pump, but they are the two percent that can eventually grow and expand to create multi-drug-resistant tumors as the blood supply carries them around the entire body. latest research on acetogenins reported that they were capable of shutting down these intercellular pumps, thereby killing multi-drug-resistant (MDR) tumors. Researchers reported that the acetogenins preferentially killed multi-drug-resistant cancer and tumor cells by blocking the transfer of ATP (the chief source of cellular energy) into them. A tumor cell needs energy to grow and reproduce, and a great deal more to run its pump and expel attacking agents. By inhibiting energy to the cell , it can no longer run its pump. When acetogenins block ATP to the tumor cell, the cell no longer has enough energy to operate sustaining processes and it dies. Normal cells seldom develop such a pump, therefore, they do not need large amounts of energy to run a pump and, generally, are not adversely affected by ATP inhibitors, researchers reported that 14 different acetogenins tested to date demonstrate potent ATP blocking properties. They also reported that 13 acetogenins tested were more potent against MDR breast cancer cells than all three of the standard drugs (adriamycin, vincristine, and vinblastine) they used as controls.

My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer last fall. She's now doing okay, but I'm participating in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer in Chicago June 2-3 to support her by raising awareness about this disease and raising funds for research. If y'all could maybe post the link to my page in some new places, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!
