Tamara you recently wrote a book called
defeat cancer now can you just briefly
talk about the story behind that book
yes well in 2009 was April 2009 and I
had found a lump on my breast and
because I was busy getting my master's
degree and I was almost finished I was
gonna finish in June of 2009 I said okay
you know I knew what it was back of my
mind and I was like okay well I can't
deal with this now I'm busy getting my
degree so I put it on the back burner
and then in May of 2009 I had lost my
job and so now as unemployed and with
cancer and I was like I still can't
think about this right now i have a
month until i graduate so i was put on
the back burner well in that time at two
months it actually spread to my lymph
nodes so then I had like five or six
lymph nodes underneath each armpit and
everything was it was visible and
swollen and by that point everything was
throbbing all across my breast area and
it was really painful difficult to sleep
and then it was itching at the site of
the lump on my breast and so by the time
I finally graduated I just you know cuz
I didn't have any insurance and I didn't
have any money so i just sat in front of
the computer and I cried and I said you
know God you put this on me for a reason
and so you're gonna have to help and I
just asked him what do you want me to do
leave me the right direction to what's
going to heal me naturally because there
was no way I saw my mother going through
chemo and radiation like 30-something
years prior when I was like 12 years old
and there was no way I was going to do
that so I just left in his hands and he
led me to you know the Budwig protocol
and apricot kernels and things like that
we're all right yeah well not the light
rail because that's the IV injection but
that just the apricot kernels
else so I immediately started on by the
way in June of 2009 and within a couple
weeks the lump started going down and
the pain got less and the throbbing got
less so I knew something was happening
something was working you know by June I
was already sleeping like 15 hours a day
I was that exhausted and always like in
a fog so I know that the cancer was
pretty advanced at that point especially
because it spread to the lymph nodes and
then about a couple months later I
started adding in apricot kernels and
then I added in juicing and starting to
detox my body and of course as
exercising a lot you know going hiking
and getting out in the Sun and doing
stuff like that and I started healing
about September of 2009 a rash appeared
around my neck in the form of a ring and
I didn't know what was going on so I had
talked to doctors and I talked to
biochemist and I talked to nutritionist
and I talked to other people with cancer
and other people had told me well that's
the epidermal growth factor receptor
it's the rash that comes out when you
have cancer in your body and it will
come out while your body is detoxifying
from cancer not everybody gets it
because it's more prevalent in her one
type cancer so advanced stage breast
cancers or non-small cell lung cancer so
that came out and I you know and ask
these people well how long is it going
to be until it goes away because it was
really itchy and nothing was helping it
you know I put aloe vera or anything on
it nothing was working and they said
when all the cancers gone in your body
the rash will disappear and it took over
seven months from that point until it
finally disappeared sometime in April of
2010 is when it finally you know was
going away and so I figured okay well I
must be healed and
and then I stopped doing all of the good
stuff I was doing and went back to
eating donuts and sugar and stuff I
wasn't supposed to do and within six
months the cancer came back worse than
before so within a few months from it
coming back at this point i was now
sleeping 21 hours a day and always in a
fog just when you're awake you just
don't you don't feel like yourself or
like you've even slept so I just you
know by December 2010 I was so exhausted
and nothing was working and I felt
myself dying I felt my body shutting
down and I just I lied down and I just
cried and I just said I'm done that's it
god it's a it's up to you i'm not
detoxing anymore I'm not doing anything
I'm just I'm done mmm you know and I'm
happy with that and I was ready to die
and i went to bed in the next morning I
woke up and all of a sudden I ran to the
bathroom and I just you know kept having
diarrhea and and then i would get out of
the bathroom and I run back to the
bathroom it was like I was detoxing by
the fourth time I had done that all of a
sudden it felt like someone lifted a
shade really slowly up from the bottom
of my chin up to the top of my head like
the fog was being lifted and it was just
so it was just so profound how that
happened and I knew that that had to
have been a miracle no the cancer wasn't
gone but it gave me enough energy to
where I kind of had the will to live
again to where I was able to start
detoxing again and doing all of the
other stuff so I had you know started
the juicing and the apricot kernels
again and the detoxing and this by the
way it takes practically all day to do
it and it's a long process but you know
when considering the alternative of
chemo or radiation or surgery that's
just not an alternative to me so I was
glad that I didn't have insurance and I
was glad you know I didn't have any
money because I would have went the
other way I would have made the decision
to surgery and chemo I'm glad I didn't
under
