she's only 35 years old. at this point, it's inoperable, so they're beginning chemo on her tomorrow.
has anyone heard of a promising alternative treatment?
One place to begin is the web site of Dr. Lorraine Day.
Not having had cancer I cannot vouch from personal experience, but frankly Chemo is, in the long run, ineffective and destroys a person's immune system. It is by definition poison.
I took care of a chemo patient, my mother, for five years. I have seen what Chemo does to a person. In most cases it perhaps slows the cancer temporarily but at the expense of destroying the immune system. So, the solution is more and more drugs, and because the chemo also destroys nerve cells you have the onset of Peripheral Neuropathy, phantom nerve pain in the extremities, making the patient's life more and more miserable. No, chemo is ineffective, and when patients do get well the M.D.'s really have no clue why. They attribute it to the chemo, but there is no hard evidence to support that. It amounts to scientific wishful thinking - and profits for big Pharma.
I was told when my father was going through colon cancer that the chemo was to kill the cancer to the point of almost killing the patient, too. Didn't work in my fathers' case.

My relative did not have neurological problems while on chemo. He did have some nausea and tiredness, but not neurological problems.
And his cancer was in completely remission after a year and half of treatment. They could not find any cancer cells in his blood six months after treatment ended. The usual is less than 2% cancer cells, so he was better off than most with his form of cancer. Though, it was a much more easily treatable form of cancer.
