I have a friend who has been stage 4 breast cancer for nearly two years now. About two years ago, she was basically told “Nothing else we can do. Go home and die.” She still goes out once a week to feed and minister to the elderly and homeless. She is still here in large part because of herbal and alternative medicine. She has a large (6″x11″) open wound that is frequently getting infected with one or more bacteria. She sends me her lab reports, and it has been three or four bacteria each time. She went into anaphylaxis and had organ damage from repeated antibiotic use, so those are out. So far, she has been successful in eradicating the infections with herbs and essential oils but due to the nature of the wound, she gets them again. When an infection is present, the pain in the nerve bed is excruciating. In fact, that is her first clue the infection is back. She can not sleep through this pain and usually cried when her bandages are changed. So far nothing has been very effective on that type of pain. I am wondering if anyone has had a family member or friend in the same situation and can recommend something. She’s tried a lot of herbs and etc, but maybe someone has something she hasn’t tried yet. That’s my hope. Thank you to any who answer.
