Cancer of the Tongue - undifferentiated squamous nasopharyngeal carcinoma
Andi - my wife – had noticed in about March 2004, that there was a lump on the left side of my neck which wasn’t very big - about the size of a pea - but significant enough to warrant a visit to my GP to check out. I was diagnosed with cancer – undifferentiated squamous nasopharyngeal carcinoma (cancer at the base of the tongue) around July 2004. I decided not to have the traditional treatments at that time chemo and radiation, (surgery was not an option in my particular case) and would rather try and find a possible alternative cure.
We were on vacation in Cape Town around Christmas 2004 and Andi found an advert in a magazine for a clinic in the Bahamas which had a good success rate with many different types of cancers, and reasonable success with head and neck cancer. We decided to call them and spoke directly to Dr. Clement (all the physicians who practise there are from a traditional medical background by the way) who is in charge of the clinic. Dr. Clement asked me to send all my medical details – biopsy’s etc. and after checking them and suggested I go to them in Freeport and begin their treatment. At the time of writing (April 2006) it has now been a year after my initial treatment at the IAT clinic, and two years from when I was first ‘officially’ diagnosed, and I’m very happy to report that I’m doing fantastically well. A walking miracle, according to my good friend the surgeon, and look forward to a very good quality of life now, and for a good many years to come.
Please visit my website www.livelong.co.za for a more detailed account. If you would like any further help and have any other questions not covered here I’m only too willing to give it, (contact: les@gvmusic.co.za ) but please realise that I too am a C patient, and have no medical knowledge whatsoever.

Adenoid Cytic Carcinoma
Joan was diagnosed in April 1979 and had a tumor in her salivary gland excised. She was given two options: Radical surgery of the jaw, neck, roof of the mouth and tongue with 30% chance of survival or radiation to extend her life for a short period of time she chose radiation. After having 8,000 rads of radiation with numerous side effects, she heard about Dr. Burton and I.A.T. and began her life saving treatment in August of 1979, approximately 25 years ago.
Joan looks forward to returning for her “tune ups” and feels like Freeport is her second home. Incidentally, Joan worked approximately 12 hours a day at a Real Estate since 1987.

Cancer of the Tongue - squamous cell carcinoma.
John was diagnosed on February 12, 1999. The doctor gave him two
options, one was to remove his tongue and jawbone that would have
him breathe through a tracheotomy and eat through a stomach tube.
The other choice was radiation. He had 35 radiation treatments after
which he had 6 biopsies of his tongue. They found the cancer was
still there. The doctor then wanted to schedule the surgery. Both
John and his wife, Ann, said "No!" They decided to go
to the Clinic. They had known about IAT but like most
people they did not want to leave home for a foreign land. But they
were pleasantly surprised when they arrived in Freeport. "Everyone
is so friendly," when they got to the clinic and opened the
door to the waiting room they found a happy, animated group of healthy
looking individuals, not full of gloom and doom as one would find
in most cancer hospitals and clinics. They felt so welcomed by fellow
patients that their first stay of 10 weeks was a pleasant time.
It was June 21, 1999 when John began the IAT treatment. Later that
year in December, he had a CAT scan that showed the tumor on his
tongue was diminishing. The oncologist who first told them that
IAT would not work, in October 2000, said IAT does work, "keep
on doing what you are doing" was the Oncologist's advice. As
of April 2001, John's tongue is now cancer free!
