This is a post from Chris Hammond who is posting about his cancer journey on his Facebook account. He is utilizing many integrative approaches with chemotherapy (eg HBOT, diet, supplements to overcome neuropathy). Very interesting to read his progress and this one was especially interesting. He provides some background on use of Laser light treatment. “Was just on a call with my functional medicine Dr. - Jennifer Bull. She’s really into cutting edge therapies for cancer, one being the Weber Laser from Germany, which is showing great results with shrinking tumors. She now has one in her office in Timonium MD. She’s developing a training for practitioners in the US. She was saying the wave of the future for cancer medicine is oxygen, plants and light(photodynamic therapy). When it comes to treating cancer tumors with lasers, "Weber Laser" (developed by Weber Medical) primarily refers to Photodynamic Therapy (PDT). This approach combines light-sensitive drugs with targeted laser energy to selectively destroy malignant cells while sparing surrounding healthy tissue. How the Treatment WorksPhotosensitizers: Light-sensitive compounds (e.g., indocyanine green, chlorin E6) are administered intravenously or injected directly into the tumor. These drugs accumulate in cancer cells over time. Laser Activation: A specialized medical device, such as the Weberneedle® Endolaser, is used to direct laser light into the body. Tumor Destruction: The specific laser wavelength activates the drug, triggering a reaction that produces reactive oxygen species (ROS). These ROS act locally to destroy the tumor cells, block their blood supply, and trigger an immune response. Delivery Methods: Depending on the size and location of the tumor, doctors can apply the laser in a few different ways: Interstitial Laser Therapy: Fiber-optic light guides are inserted directly through needles into deep-seated solid tumors (such as breast, prostate, or bladder tumors) to deliver light evenly.Intravenous (IV) Laser Therapy: Laser light is delivered directly into the bloodstream to target circulating cancer cells and reduce systemic inflammation.

I saw this paper had arrived in my email this morning. I think it’s a good survey of what HBOT is thought to help with respect to standard of care cancer treatments.

So lots has transpired since we first thought Boone had osteosarcoma at his skull. Actually it turned out to be nasal carcinoma that migrated to the skull. Biopsy determined it to be an undifferentiated carcinoma (fairly aggressive growth). What this meant was radiation therapy as SOC and limited expected success with chemo options afterwards. We chose to do SRT (3 days at 10 GY fractions). It’s been 6 weeks since we finished the radiation therapy. Since it wasn’t osteosarcoma, Boone could not be considered for Yale University’s immunotherapy clinical trial (polyclonal canine antibody equivalent of the human monoclonal Cetuximab). The antibodies target over expressed HER2 or EGFR proteins. For Boone this means his carcinoma will need to over express EGFR (~ 70% chance per some published papers I’ve reviewed). However, Yale approved Boone to receive the vaccine under compassionate access and he gets the first shot this week, then the second shot at 21 days. The vet draws blood samples at baseline, 21 days, and 45 days. These are sent back to Yale to the contribute to the immune response data for nasal carcinoma cancers. Hopefully we can add to the improvements of future immunotherapy methods. — Ok, so that’s the conventional approach we’ve committed to following. Meanwhile, on the alternative front, since early January I began a treatment of Fenbendazole (10mg/lb) 6 days per week with milk thistle liver support, and added immunity boosting mushroom supplements. I transitioned Boone to a ketogenic diet (~ 70%fat/28% protein/2% net carbs daily). Most recently I have added modified citrus pectin (MCP). This is due to a paper I found that indicated MCP may help increase the effectiveness of Cetuximab antibodies by interfering with free Galectin-3 molecules (makes it more difficult for tumor cells to mass together or metastasize). So the alternative approach is to attack the cancer cells by Fenbendazole’s disruptive mechanisms, starve the cancer cells of glucose, and try hard to help the immune system bolstered by the vaccine antibodies to go to war with the cancer.

I never imagined I would be writing this. My mum passed away, and I don’t yet have the words to describe the emptiness she’s left behind. She wasn’t just my mother — she was my best friend, my anchor, my reason for fighting, and the heart behind everything we built here. This community was created for her. She carried more than most people ever see. She lived with bipolar disorder. She carried childhood trauma. She endured a painful divorce, the loss of both her parents, a cancer diagnosis, the death of Pepper — our family boxer — and the loss of Albert, our family’s closest friend. All of this happened within the last seven years. And yet — she kept going. She walked at least 10,000 steps a day. She swam three times a week. She went to church every Sunday. She worked tirelessly on the house. She quit smoking after her diagnosis. She tried carnivore. She cut out sugar. And most importantly: She kept our family together. She fought. She cared. She loved. Even when depression weighed heavily on her will to live, she chose to fight — not because it was easy, but because she loved us. She fought for us when her mind told her to give up. That is courage. We were hopeful. So hopeful. She had just started the Astron Health protocol — only one week in — and we believed we had time. Previous scans had been relatively reassuring, showing stable, very slow-growing, localised disease in the peritoneum and a coeliac lymph node, with no organ spread. Her CRP was 4 — within the normal range. Then everything changed — fast. She developed sudden, severe gastrointestinal pain, vomiting, and diarrhoea. We rushed to the hospital. A CT scan showed ischemic colitis. A mouth swab also confirmed COVID. She was put on palliative care, given fluids and heparin. Her circulation improved. Lactate came down. Symptoms improved. Objectively, things were getting better. But the narrative never changed. Despite improving vitals, improving markers, and improving symptoms, they continued to insist on bowel necrosis — even when the evidence did not clearly support it. At the same time, her CRP (an inflammation marker) rose rapidly from 4 (normal) just weeks earlier, to 14 on admission, to 150 the following day, and eventually to 455 at its peak. She developed rising oxygen requirements, hypoxia, and what appeared to be a clear systemic inflammatory storm — yet COVID pneumonitis was repeatedly dismissed.

Every time o read about the cancer vaccine i filled with joy that the day is near to make world cancer free and to get back to the normal! But this scares me too what if it get delayed ! What if it doesn’t workout! What’s your thought about the news lingering around these vaccines?
