Dear Frederick, Although I stand by what I said earlier about Johns Hopkins, I have looked further into the information that was sent out, and you are right---the information that was put out came not from Johns Hopkins but from a bogus source. Thanks for alerting us to the danger of accepting it blindly. Regards, Victor

I thank Eric Pinto for bringing this update to our attention, because it will help protect thousands of families from developing cancer if they follow the advice that is being proffered in it. Lea and I have had close personal friends who have died as the result of being subjected to too much chemotherapy. One died just a week ago today! Johns Hopkins is now suggesting that prevention is better than that type of "cure"---chemotherapy successful because it killed the cancer cells, but the patient died as well!
