So what is the 'c' word anyway?

Julie Romani - It's All About Cancer

So what is this ‘c’ word anyway? It is a disease of the genes, which are part of a human DNA. Many changes in the DNA are accidental. Cells constantly divide and each time that they do, they have to copy their genetic code completely. When this process takes place, which happens all day every day, sometimes mistakes happen and the replication isn’t exact which results in altered cells.

The immune system will destroy the majority of these altered cells, but sometimes some of these cells invariably escape, especially when the immune system is already impaired or weakened by some other underlying or undiagnosed imbalance or illness. Some changes wouldn’t make very much difference to how the cell works, but this one change may take that cell one step further towards producing cancerous cells.

Most of my patients (about 70%) are oncological and come to me after being diagnosed, treated with chemo and radiotherapy and told that there is not much left to be done.

The outstanding situation with Joe Romani was the support which he had from his family, especially his wife Julie, who was lovingly reminding him (not pushing) regarding what treatments to do and what supplements to take — in fact she went so far down this path that she became an expert in nutrition and supplementation.

Joe did his best to fight against cancer, even purchasing some of the medical equipment which I use in my own cancer clinic in order to receive home treatments. He knew how to enjoy life, be it sailing, eating, drinking or hanging out with friends. He even learned to enjoy his cancer treatments, especially when he (along with his family) visited me in Spain.

It was very sad for me to lose Joe. Nevertheless his family and I are aware that we did all that was possible in order to help him to live well whilst he was with us. I wish that all of my patients were like Joe and all of the wives like Julie.

There is one thing that beats all medical treatments of cancer known to this day — the support of a loved one. Joe was lucky enough to have Julie, which in my opinion extended his life the biggest way.
