Default FOR ALL to Consider.. PREVENTION!

Routine annual health checks don't go far enough despite baseline and periodic EKGs. Other organs are not surveyed.

The TAKEAWAY is there is value in everyone having a full preventive/ diagnostic CT at recommended intervals. I have since learned that here are medical companies out there that specialize in affordably priced preventive screening. "An ounce of prevention.............."

Hope some find this worth considering.

Anyone know anything about it?
Hey David,

I'm sooooo sorry to hear about this horrible news! Both my parents died of cancer so I only know to well what this awful disease can do! BUT, there are a lot of natural remedies out there that will actually put the cancer in remission or get rid of it totally. Natural, raw vegies are just some of what holistic docs are saying fights and kills the bad cells and regrows new ones. I recently read that Chemo only helps about 10% of people.....the docs love to use it because they get their greedy kick backs from it and all the other meds they prescribe!! Do a little research and I think you'll find what I'm talking about!! The Cannabis oil is a good start!! Won't hurt you one tiny bit and can only help matters! Go for it!! I know I would!! Just another natural, helpful remedy!

I wish you and your family the very best and pray that a cure is found and you can be healthy and enjoy your vette for many more years to come!! Keep the faith guy!!!
