Medical doctors help their patients by following established medical procedures that include physical examination and testing, which identifies the root of their illness. Then, they try to help patients by prescribing medications, various treatments or surgical procedures that assist in the recovery of the patient. Medical doctors are scientific, they are trained to understand what they can prove, but battling cancer, for me, required a combination of the physical and the spiritual. I used a common-sense synergistic approach to dealing with my breast cancer. In the subsequent chapters, I hope you will be encouraged by the steps I took to achieve my recovery. Here are some tips: 1) When dealing with cancer, you must determine what you want, which is total healing. Don't let your mind tell you that it's not possible to achieve it. Consider doing a synergy. This is a great way to fight cancer. In my experience, the majority of cancer patients rely heavily on just one method of treatment. For instance, they would do chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation only, others are convinced that they can beat cancer by using natural herbs alone; still, others try prayer alone, under the mistaken notion, that prayer without action, will bear results. I chose what seemed like common- sense to me, I considered my options and decided to create a synergy: a combination of all the methods. 2) Share your situation with your significant others. You will need their undying devotion on this journey. If no one else knows, then, how can they help you? Or, even pray for you? 3) Set goals and resolve to achieve them gradually and sequentially. Some will be minor, and some major, for example: changing your eating habits. Remember to maintain a plan for your success. Be specific about the results you expect. Don't aim only to stop your cancer from spreading, instead, strive to starve and kill it! 4) You must visualize what you expect. By faith, see the tumors and cancer cells disappear forever. Imagine it clearly in vivid detail. 5) Don't be afraid to face this challenge. The Bible states that God has not given us the spirit of fear. Fear does not promote good health. Now is the time to exercise common-sense judgments and soundness of mind. Remember, God is in control.
