      Giving thanks to Herbalist Doctor Kingsley is something I will always take personally because he's so powerful and his herbal medicine works effectively in curing lots of disease such as cancer, herpes disease, diabetes, kidney disease, heart failure, lupus and many more disease you can think of. Herbalist Doctor Kingsley brought me back to full health, after using his herbal medication for just seven days my long-term Leukemia Cancer was cured. My thanks to Herbalist Doctor Kingsley and I'm so glad I came across his channel on TH-cam @ (THE SEVEN DAYS FAST CURE FOR HERPES 1&2)

      I hope someone has already shared the gospel with you - if you haven't already heard it and trusted it. It's found in I Corinthians 15:1-4 in the King James Bible. Christ died for our sins, he was buried, he rose again the third day according to the scriptures. Ephesians 1:13 KJB says when you hear the gospel and simply trust it (no added works!) God saves you, and seals you with his promised Holy Spirit. Heaven will be your home! Praying you choose to put your faith in Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection as atonement for your sins!

    Tiffany, I was diagnosed with stage iv NSCLC at about the same time as you. My. cancer spread into a pleural effusion. I am EGFR Exon 20, and am also just starting my 2nd trial. I was on the TAK788 trial which was Mobocertinab along with Alimita and 4 rounds of Carboplatin. I lost most of my hair, but stopped taking the chemo parts in Sept 2021, so my hair is growing. I was on that trial for 17 months and then had progression. In Jan I started a new trial called BLU451 and my 1st CT showed stable. I am 63 and have 3 grown children and 6 grandchildren. I will pray for both of us, and all others going through this nightmare.

    I went for my physical January 2017. They found a mass in my right lung upper quadrant. I had a Pet Scan to see if the lung cancer had spread anywhere else. It was
    Just in my lung. My thoracic surgeon at Emory in Atlanta said he would recommend taking out the mass and that part of the lung. That was February 27, 2017. I was in intensive care for a week. When I got home a couple of days later my Surgeon called me and told me that the biopsies he took during surgery came back positive for cancer in my lymph nodes. I said now what? He told me I would go in once a year for a Ct Scan with contrast. This is March 2023 as I write this and every year I’ve went for my CT scan and so far lungs are clear and the cancer has never raised it’s ugly little head anywhere else. I give Jesus all the glory because I have relied on him these past years. I am 68 with 5 wonderful grandchildren and just take everything one day at a time. I was never a smoker and didn’t believe I had cancer until my pet scan. Lung cancer is not a death sentence! Just stay strong!

And then People like this get lung cancer and I feel like I’m hearing about it more and more from normal healthy people. Makes me wonder what the heck.

      You don't have to do chemotherapy to kill lung cancer I had a really good doctor I paid out of my own pocket you do you have to to get a good doctor most of the time sometimes I get good doctors using Medicare but that's why I paid out of pocket and he was really honest with me that you don't need chemotherapy to kill cancer he put me on a cancer diet and told me what things to eat that kill cancer in the lungs and breast the best and which is crushed of chia seeds red vegetables and red fruits especially red romaine lettuce and red raspberries and you have to eat three to four handfuls to do same with the Chia seeds I just took one capsule of the mushroom a day but I didn't eat the capsule part I just poured it on something else and eat it usually into my mango juice mango juice helps kill cancer too and reishi mushroom and cordycepin a mushroom it's good to get the complex that has all the mushrooms that kill cancer but those two specifically build up immunity in the lungs and breathing in green tea and sea salt and the cancer diet you can't have any red meat or chicken until the cancer is gone once it's gone you can eat it again no processed foods whatsoever no processed sugars you can have fruit juice and use that to make deserts but you can't put any processed foods in there it's best not to even make homemade desserts until you're all medically better you can have all the fruit you want you can have all the fish you want cuz it kills cancer especially salmon and tilapia and different foods kill different types of cancers my sister had full-blown skin cancer and she had surgeries and the cancer kept coming back and then she ate celery seeds never two months the cancer went away and her wounds finally healed up and I hope this info helps you the reason doctors lie about seeing you have to do chemotherapy when you really don't is because they can't make money off naturopathic methods and make tons of money off chemotherapy which kills more people than upstairs and even if you survive it you have permanent damage on your body and why put yourself through that we know even leukemia you can cure naturally in the Philippines I have a friend who was from there and she said most people are poor there and can afford to see the doctor anyways and they use a natural method to kill leukemia and she had leukemia as a child and her mom carried her and she's now in her thirties cancer Philippines I have a friend who was from there and she said most people are poor there and can afford to see the doctor anyways and they use a natural method to kill leukemia and she had leukemia as a child and her mom cured her and she's now in her 30s cancer free and never came back and she's a nurse at a hospital how many processed sugars are foods for the rest of your life processed foods are mainly what cause cancer that in pollution so moving from a polluted area helps as well cuz once you get cancer it can come back really easily so yep that's why you have to stay away from processed foods and polluted areas I hope this info helps you

      It's good to stay away from pharmaceutical drugs cuz they damage the body they said that taking too many is actually what's causing Alzheimer's in elderly that and gluten cuz they can't break down it anymore and and on this actual studies Suquamish tribe scientist proving that they are Bayou engineered on purpose to have side effects of how they make more money cuz the more sick you are the more pills you have to take the medical field is a money market according to biofeedback Pharmaceuticals psychological pills cause brain damage cuz your brain waves are supposed to go up and down and pills make them go straight

After the shock we faced my sons and I. 💪🙏 October 19, 2022 7 hour operation, they removed half of my right lung and the cancer with it, I stayed in intensive care for 2 weeks. Then 4 chemos for precaution, and now a year of immunotherapy until March 2024! And 6 months of sick leave. back to work but only part time, cant do more than 6 hours a day!
    We had ups and downs, but thank God we found out early on and so far I'm fine. 🙏❤ praying for you all to get better. 🙏

    This must be so shocking and things moved so crazy fast from your symptoms, diagnosis and treatment !
    You both must be in such shock and disbelief at this point.
    As an RN myself , I can definitely imagine the thousands of thoughts running rampant in your mind.
    It’s pretty much impossible NOT to have this happen when we have this vast knowledge of what ifs , what possible causes , what other possible things going on , etc, etc. - while simultaneously trying to keep the kids protected and the rest of your family functioning …
    It’s exhausting just thinking about it !

    I feel guilty watching her story. I’m 58 and I’ve smoked for 40 years. I quit twice. When I found out I was pregnant with my first son, I immediately stopped. I didn’t think twice. I had a baby inside of me. But I started back when he was around 2 months old. Three years later I found I was pregnant again. Again, I stopped immediately-the same day as my positive pregnancy test. But I started back a few months after delivery. I’ve been overweight all of my life and never exercised regularly. I am happy to say I’m down a little over 100 pounds and now weigh 168. But I’ve taken my life for granted. I almost died in an F3 tornado 23 years ago. I was literally swept up in it and broke my arm and hurt my back, later requiring surgery. I’m not saying any life is more important. I’ve raised 2 children now in their 30’s and I have grandchildren. But this young woman has done all the right things and has so much to live for and it just breaks my heart. I pray she makes it through this. She is so needed by her children and husband. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

    You rock Tiffany!! I was diagnosed 2 days after my 47th birthday with nsclc stage 3. it took from Feb. of 2020 to October 2020 to figure it out. I lost my voice because a lymph node paralyzed my vocal cords. 2 years later I am now able to talk. I went from being able to say one word to a full sentence. even though I still struggle to speak some days. I get scanned every 8-12 weeks. I have a scan coming up the first of next month to see if the mass in my other lung (which is new) has grown.

    As a Dr, I always think of the worst diagnosis a set of symptoms can be. Did they do a chest X-ray when you first had rib pain and cough? Did you even use a pulse ox? Did they test the pleural fluid for cancer? Did you ever have a positive culture for an infectious etiology.? It sounds like your diagnosis was delayed, and that happened especially during Covid foe a number of reasons. I am so sorry you had to be alone in the hospital. And that was totally unnecessary. My prayers are with you guys. 🙏

She has 4 kids.. reason of testing is that the 5 yr old was dx with a very rare genetic disease Ohdo disease on KAT6b. She only eats peanut butter on bread and some cereal. And milk. Oldest daughter has it too, she is now 11.
    GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR NEW TRIAL. PRAYING FOR YOU FROM CANADA 🇨🇦

    A friend of my brother who was a marathon runner super fit and had never smoked or even drank alcohol had lung cancer and it had spread to most of his body.He had no pain and nearly no symptoms. The only reason they picked it up was he started to run out of breath during his training runs so he got checked out.I know 5 women that i went to school with in the 1970s who started smoking when they were 9 and 10. They were a group of friends that all started at the same time. They are still smoking today and are very healthy in their mid 60s.They get regular checkups and their doctor told them on their last one that they are perfectly healthy. You just cant pick who will get it or not.

    My husband passed away from lung cancer. He had no symptoms, nothing. We were only alerted that there was a problem when one day he coughed up some blood. He was always healthy and rarely sick, so this came as a complete surprise. Because of this, I urge one and all to start having yearly (at least) lung x-rays. Same is true for women (especially older women) to have yearly PAP smears. I, too, have always been quite healthy and rarely sick. I decided to go to a GYN because it had been a number of years and I thought it was about time. I, too, had no symptoms, nothing. But the GYN had ordered some tests and found I had endometrium cancer. Thank G-d, we found it early. I have no history of cancer in my family, yet I contracted it. According to what I have heard and read, 25% of cancer patients do not have a family history of cancer, which is why it is so very important to have these yearly medical tests so that if there is a medical problem, it can be found early enough to have the problem cured.

      Plus because of people having sex so much and not getting married to have sex and staying with that person we have HPV. I was married for 30 years to the same man never had an issue at 50 years old. We got a divorce because he became addicted to opioids and began drinking alcohol. I gave him a year to clean up. He refused to do it, so I divorced him. I remarried a man I go to church with. I was his third marriage, and between those marriages he was very promiscuous, and he gave me HPV so now I risk Getting cancer in my female parts because I was stupid and remarried. The thing is about God’s word everything he says is true. If you get a divorce, you’re not to remarry unless your first husband dies. I was very angry because prior to us getting married, he made me get all this testing done for sexually transmitted diseases, which I’ve been married 30 years! Of course everything came back negative. But they do not test men for HPV. And he refused to get any sexually transmitted testing done anyway. And here he was the one that’s been sexually promiscuous for 40 years. I am so over men they’re not even worth it. I am in no way interested in women, but if this marriage don’t work, I would never remarry. Never never.

      @@martahernandez9784 yes. Horrible at all ages. But I have to say that I am glad that I got cancer in my 50s (still quite young nowadays) rather than before I had even experienced life with marriage, children, travel etc. I feel actually fortunate to have lived a “complete” life before cancer came in and took so much. At least I have my memories and experiences of a normal cancer free life. Younger cancer patients, even when they survive, have the dark shadow of this disease following them for the rest of their lives. This shadow, and fear of recurrence is, to me, one of the worst parts of this so called “journey”. So please don’t think that I don’t care when an older person gets cancer but maybe I just see things more relatively because of my own personal cancer experience. The less of our lives that this disease claims, the better. In this regard someone who gets it at an older age is better off than someone who gets it younger. I don’t think anyone could disagree with this.

    Lung cancer is sneaky and scary. So many people get diagnosed at stage 4. I had no symptoms, had a colonography ( because my guts are twisted, and I cannot have a colonoscopy due to a previous abdominal surgery for cervical cancer 2 decades ago), and although my colon was clear, a mass was found on my right lung! I had a lobectomy and chemo. Stage 2B. I am lucky to be alive and healthy now. More should be done for screenings at a early age for lung cancer. I do not have EGFR, but I do have an ALK mutation. That is great news that there are targeted drugs and trials. You are very brave, and a warrior. Prayers and blessings to you as you face this issue in your life. I never say I am "sick".

My prayer is that God will give them the strength to face this trying time in their young lives. May we show kindness to one another. Of all the things in life, what matter most is being their for each other. A very moving story.

    Yes I also follow Jenny Apple. She has stage 4 also.. She was approved for a clinical trial abd seems to be working. She has a rash on her face. She’s in Los Angeles at City if Hope. She has a great support team there. Now her support team watches her U tube even the doctor. She’s going thru a lot like you but shares everything. Sometimes she has to have fluid drawn from her lungs. I hope this gets better for both of you❤

    I never thought I had stage 4 cancer. I’m just going to read your story but don’t know it yet. I went to the emergency clinic with slight breathing issue, very quickly within an hour I’d had a diagnosis of breast cancer. I felt like I’d been punched in the face with a very big fist. We celebrated our 20 th anniversary last month. Take care

    My husband has stage 4 lung cancer. He is on Tegriso and is doing well. He has been on it for 21 months now. Luckily he has had minimal issues for now. It started with a cough that wasn't going away and had a chest X-ray thinking he had pneumonia. I admire you putting your story out there and that you continue to improve.

    ALWAYS Remember ITS YOUR BODY AND YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO TAKE A BREAK. SO YOUR BODY CAN GET STRONG AGAIN.
    I TOLD MY FRIEND TO TAKE A MED BREAK BECAUSE SHE WAS SO WEAK AND SHE COULD BARELY TALK AND SHE STARTED HAVING TROUBLE TALKING.
    I TOLD HER TO PULL BACK FROM THE MEDS UNTIL SHE GOT STRONGER AGAIN.
    THAT ACTUALLY SAVE HER LIFE AND SHE BEAT IT.

    I was diagnosed a year ago with a stage one Neuroendocrine lung tumor. I had zero symptoms and it was an "incidental finding" after a car accident in which my air bag did not go off and my chest hit the steering wheel leading to a CT scan. I had a lobectomy a year ago. (non smoker). I am a single parent and teacher with limited help and funds to do "fun things", travel to get second opinions and money to pay for genetic testing, but God has been so gracious to provide for my needs. I am doing well and my yearly check up is this summer. The only down side to this year is not having the finances to see my son and his family that live in Europe; I have not met my 1 year old granddaughter. Be thankful you have the finances to search for answers etc. Most people do not.

    My partner received the same diagnosis in December 2022. We thought it was long haul COVID. One lung had completely collapsed and the cavity filled with fluid. Two weeks in the hospital and four surgical procedures later non-smoker adenocarcinoma with genetic mutation. Shocked is an understatement. Just finished 6 chemo treatments. Now immunotherapy. We are cautiously optimistic since he otherwise perfectly healthy. We have since learned there is an inexplicable significant increase in this type of cancer amoung young people and the doctors don't know why.

We need to be told EXACTLY what the vaccine contained and the side effects. I will ask the question, and TOTALLY respect your decision to answer. Did your partner get vaccinated? If yes, did they get Covid before, after, or both, the vax?

She is still taking herself for breakfast and dinner to the dining room it is like she is just our elderly Mother, Pray for you i really do, as i only know of my Mother but she is elderly and they wont give her any treatment, now they are trying to send her home alone because they never thought she would survive like she has

    my mom was diagnosed stage 4 NSCLC-EGFR mutation just two weeks ago. this hits home as we had no idea it was cancer until she had to go to the ER for heart palpitations. she is a non smoker too. this is becoming way too common now that an early screening for patients at risk makes a whole lot of difference.
