Cancer kills more than six hundred thousand people every year.
Though there have been great strides made in the fight against cancer, we are still losing the battle each year.
Cancer Affects All Kinds of People at All Ages
Even for public figures, celebrities and those who we would consider wealthy, there is no protection from the disease that confounds most experts.
Taking people like Peter Jennings, Farrah Faucet, David Bowie, Aretha Franklin, Paul Newman, Walt Disney, Dennis Hopper and countless more, in the midst of their prime, cancer does not choose only the elderly.
So many people have already died, from a disease that knows no age differences, from ten year olds, to thirty-somethings in their prime, to seniors, who were lucky enough to live a full life, before this terrible disease struck them down.
Cancer Trends
Although statistical trends are usually not directly applicable to individual patients, they are essential for governments, policy makers, health professionals, and researchers.
These statistics and trends enable us to understand the impact of cancer on the population, and to develop strategies to address the challenges that cancer poses to the society at large.
Many Patients Dying Of Cancer Try Useless Treatments
WebMD reports new research indicates that when given just one month to live, a significant number of patients still opt for aggressive and often costly interventions, despite little evidence to suggest they’ll help.
A study of just over 100,000 patients in the United States found that the urge to undergo ultimately fruitless cancer treatment “is not a rare phenomenon,” said study author Dr. Helmneh Sineshaw, of the American Cancer Society.
More than one-quarter underwent active treatment, such as surgery or chemotherapy, in the final weeks of life, said Sineshaw, director of treatment patterns and outcomes research for the cancer society.
For those affected, care planning can be very “complex.” Decisions involve a tricky interplay of doctors, patients and loved ones.
Though this is a challenging scenario for doctors and patients, oncologists have an obligation to inform their patients as best as they can about the prognosis, the goals of treatment, and the expectations for benefit and side effects from any treatment plan.
However, there is hope, from doctors like Dr. Mark Rosenberg, from the Healthy Living Group.
Dr. Rosenberg is an innovator with original ideas on how to combat this disease.
It is because of rare individuals like Dr. Rosenberg that progress is finally being made, and the long struggle against cancer may ultimately be won.
Why People Seek Out Dr. Rosenberg’s Methods
Cancer is a very personal disease. What we know about cancer and how to fight it and provide the best options for our patients is continually being supplemented or challenged by new and exciting studies.
Marina’s Story
Marina Ashville had complained of an odd type of lump stretch mark for years on her right breast, but was told by doctors not to worry because it was nothing. Finally she went for a sonogram with the urging of her daughter Anna. They were shocked to find out that Marina had stage 2 estrogen positive breast cancer.
In 2018, she began experiencing bone pain, which became persistent. A PET scan showed a large spread of disease in her bones. After new scans and tests, they would find Marina now had stage 4 cancer which spread to her bones. With the news, Anna her daughter, took six months off of work to step in and roll up her sleeves to be her mom’s advocate.
Anna decided to look outside the traditional box of standard care, in hopes of finding a new cutting edge direction that could offer her mother a better chance at life.
This journey would bring her to the offices of Dr. Mark Rosenberg, an integrative medicine doctor, who specializes in care for various stages of cancer patients.
So far, following the trail blazing approach of Dr. Rosenberg, Marina is thriving with his treatment regiments, and her pain has vanished.
In 2019, Emmy-award winner Director and Producer Keith Famie will dedicate his next film to the ravages of cancer, giving a voice to those who are in the midst of a terrifying journey.
He will explore the latest medical advances as well as body, mind and spirit approaches and cures that may come from natural sources. An in-depth look will be taken as to how lifestyle changes and discipline can affect what may otherwise be a genetic roll of the dice.
As with all of Keith’s documentaries, the production will contrast real-time stories of cancer patients with those on the front-line of researching cures. The newest approaches will be examined, including advancements being made in chemotherapy and holistic medicine.
As an Emergency Room physician, Dr. Mark Rosenberg saw all kinds of patients, but when his mother came in complaining of pain it was a shock when he diagnosed her with stage four metastatic cancer after reviewing the scans of her lungs.
That was 16 years ago. Since that moment, Dr. Mark felt lost at this time in not being able to help his mother.
So he decided to dedicate the rest of his career to treating cancer patients through an integrative medical approach.
