Yes, we have choices. When cancer enters our lives, we can’t just hand over the keys and close our eyes. It’s our body, not theirs. We have to study, to understand, and to choose. But with so many paths, standard, integrative, metabolic, where do we even begin? Think of our body as a garden, and our immune system as its soil. A healthy garden resists weeds; a depleted soil lets them take over. This “terrain” mindset can become our guide through every single decision: 1. We study many paths because the main goal is to heal the soil, not just kill the weed. We look beyond the tumor. We explore how bad nutrition, stress, toxins, parasites, infections and wrong treatment choices shaped the environment that let cancer grow. 2. We weigh the real cost: money, yes, but also the cost to our immune “soil.” Every treatment has a price, but the hidden cost is what it does to our body’s defense. High-dose chemo might shrink a tumor fast, but it may burn the soil. 3. We must know the difference between immune supporters and immune destroyers. Use terrain compass to sort them. A treatment that supports the soil might be oxidative therapies, repurposed drugs, supplements, sleep, exercise, targeted fasting, or insulin control through keto. These are not an exhaustive list. A treatment that destroys it might be a blunt chemo combination or extended radiation. Both might have a place, I don't know, but you choose with full awareness, not as a blind passenger. 4. We walk into the doctor’s office with a concept in mind, not just hope. This compass might give us an unshakable stance. When our oncologist says, “This is the standard protocol,” we gently respond, “Thank you. Can you help me understand exactly how this affects my immune terrain? What’s the cost to my body’s ability to heal?” We're not being difficult, we're being the CEO of our own garden. It’s our body, and we refuse to just blindly accept. We co-create. 5. We need to find an MD who reads the same map. Once we’re grounded in the terrain concept, we look for a guide who respects it.

Hi Warriors ❤️ It’s been quite a while since I’ve posted, and I wanted to check in with everyone. As many of you know, I’ve been going through an incredibly difficult time following the loss of my mum. She was my best friend and the inspiration behind this community. I’ve needed some time to process everything and focus on my family. There are still many unanswered questions surrounding her final hospital admission. I’ve requested access to her medical records and am currently waiting for them. Unfortunately, progress has been slow, and it feels as though things became more defensive once concerns about potential clinical negligence were raised. At the moment, I’m trying to understand exactly what happened. There are several aspects of her care that I still struggle to reconcile, including concerns about severe COVID pneumonitis that appeared to be dismissed, decisions made during her admission, and the rapid decline that followed. My hope is that obtaining the records will provide some clarity and answers. Sometimes I find myself wondering “what if?” and wishing we had been given more time. Everything happened so quickly, and we never even had the opportunity to try the new protocol from Astron Health that we had been exploring. Since losing my mum, I’ve found myself replaying everything over and over in my head. Wondering if there was something else I could have tried, another question I could have asked, another avenue I could have explored. But if I’m completely honest, my biggest regret isn’t a treatment, a protocol, or a therapy that we didn’t try. My biggest regret is not showing her more love. I was so focused on finding answers. So focused on finding a cure so that she could live. I spent countless hours researching, reading studies, analysing scans, tracking symptoms, and learning everything I possibly could. Every day felt like a race against time. I was constantly thinking about the next step, the next blood test, the next scan, the next treatment, the next possibility.

Hey guys just wanted to give a little update on my Dad's lung cancer journey and see if anyone had any thoughts on his progress. Ideas and inputs greatly appreciated! - Diagnosed with stage 3c lung adenocarcinoma July 2025 - Started keto diet, ivermectin 1mg/kg daily and fenbendazole 400mg a few weeks later - Felt strong, good appetite able to walk 2-3km per day, weight 75kg - August 2025 - seen by oncology team in Melbourne and offered 'palliative' chemo and immunotherapy, not eligible for radiation or surgery due to mets to mediastinum and supraclavicular lymph nodes - Had one dose of carboplatin and keytruda September 2025 - 10 days later admitted to hospital with severe liver dysfunction (enzymes around 1000), presumed autoimmune hepatitis due to keytruda (liver pre treatment was fine) - Commenced high dose steroids and mycophenolate with gradual recovery of liver - Ceased fenbendazole as every time we reintroduced it the liver function worsened. No further immunotherapy of chemo - Continued keto diet (gki 2-5 mostly), ivermectin and gradually added in some other supplements - metformin, berberine, melatonin, quercetin, Artemissinin, ECGC, mebendazole (now 100mg daily), TUDCA, silymarin, vit d with k, Resveratrol - Gradual weight loss since September 2025, down to 60kg - January 2026 finally got off the steroids - January 2026 developed diarrhoea - diagnosed with microscopic colitis presumed due to keytruda from september, ?previously suppressed due to steroids. Required hospital admission for high dose steroids and fluids - No improvement in diarrhoea until infusion of infliximab, now settled and weaning steroids again - Feb 2026 also started IV vitamin C 2ish times per week, can only do 30mg due to problems with the salt load - Ongoing weight loss 56kg, very fatigued and weak, struggling with appetite, out of keeping with improvement in colitis The good news in all of this is that the cancer has been relatively stable on every scan since metabolic therapy and chemo/immuno. Much to the surprise of his oncologist considering he only had one dose of chemo and immuno.

Laura’s Story Before her cancer diagnosis, Laura’s life already revolved around health and wellness. She was a certified personal trainer, yoga teacher, Clinical Ayurveda Specialist, and health and nutrition coach who deeply believed in living a healthy lifestyle. Then, in 2011, everything changed. Laura was diagnosed with Stage 2 breast cancer despite years of focusing on exercise, nutrition, and healthy living. The diagnosis was especially frightening because of her family history and the loss of her brother to testicular cancer years earlier. At the time, Laura followed a standard-of-care treatment approach that included surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and hormone therapy. Years later, after believing she was cancer-free, Laura experienced a metastatic recurrence. Following a fall, scans revealed cancer throughout multiple areas of her body, including her hips, pelvis, spine, ribs, shoulder blade, lymph nodes, and chest cavity. The diagnosis forced her to reevaluate not only her treatment plan, but also how she wanted to live, think, heal, and use her energy moving forward. That journey ultimately led her deeper into the metabolic and terrain-based approach to health, emotional healing work, nervous system support, mindset work, and learning how to care for herself physically, mentally, and emotionally.
