Diagnosis and Standard Treatment
Carol Bricker has been fighting breast cancer for 25 years, having undergone the full spectrum of standard treatments, including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation. Despite her efforts, the cancer returned, this time resurfacing on the scar tissue from her previous surgery. This experience left her disillusioned with conventional treatments and motivated her to search for alternative options.
“The first time, I had surgery, chemo and radiation. The second time, the cancer was growing right on the scar tissue where I had radiation and operation removal of the cancer.”
— Mrs. Bricker, breast cancer survivor
Turning to Non-Conventional Therapy
In 2010, Carol discovered a clinic offering Sodium Phenylbutyrate and its derivatives, also known as antineoplastons. Eager for another chance, she decided to try this alternative approach. Her treatment involved taking dozens of capsules daily, which she committed to despite the regimen’s intensity. The results were promising—she achieved remission and has since maintained her well-being.
A Comparison to Traditional Therapy
Carol’s journey with alternative therapy was very different from her husband’s experience. Diagnosed with cancer around the same time, her husband chose to continue with conventional chemotherapy.
Unfortunately, he struggled with severe side effects, losing weight and energy, and ultimately was unable to overcome his illness. In contrast, Carol felt well enough during her treatment to care for herself and even support her husband through his challenges, attributing this resilience to the benefits of her alternative therapy.
Sharing Her Story of Success and Caution
Carol remains in good health today and openly shares her testimony of how Sodium Phenylbutyrate has kept her cancer at bay. Her story serves as a reminder of the potential for alternative therapies to complement traditional treatment.
The Power of Dr. Burzynski’s Innovative Approach
Carol believes strongly in Dr. Burzynski’s treatment methods, calling them “tomorrow’s cancer treatment today.” In her experience, these therapies have allowed her to achieve and maintain remission while retaining a high quality of life. Her faith in this approach has been strengthened by the success stories of friends who also benefited from antineoplaston therapy (4PBA), including one friend whose breast cancer has been in remission since the early 1990s, and a doctor’s son who was cured after facing a dire prognosis.
Thinking Outside the Box
Carol Bricker’s journey is a testament to exploring new avenues in the face of adversity. While her story underscores the challenges of battling cancer, it also highlights the hope that alternative treatments, like Sodium phenylbutyrate, can bring to those in need. For Carol, this innovative therapy has been the missing key in her long battle with cancer, giving her a second chance at life and the opportunity to share her journey with others.
“I was swallowing maybe 50 pills a day, but feeling very well.”
