Miracle drink?

I'm doing good this morning - already went for a walk!
After I told my parents about my cancer, they searched for cancer cure in Japan. They found about this drink which they heard cures cancer. My mother's friend's son was able to cure his lymphoma because of this drink (that's what they told me-). So they recently sent me a box full of it. The main ingredients are- 5 different kinds of vinegar and fruit juice, etc. I don't know if it really works but I am drinking it. I noticed that when I do a search about lung cancer, I don't find many good stories in English. But when in Japanese I seem to find better stories (long term lung cancer survival stories). I don't know if it is because Japanese people with lung cancer like to talk about their stories on the web more or they actually live longer. In any case these stories encourage me a lot.

Wait a minute. I was born here in Georgia. Everyone knows that Coke is the miracle drink. Haven't you heard?

Really? I didn't know that! But I don't drink Coke - I hear it melts the teeth and bones.

Organic apple cider vinegar is supposed to be good for fat digestion (particularly important for people who have gallstones or have had their gall bladder removed)- why can't it help lung cancer? I say drink away, it can help!

Also, here's an American story for you: My Mom told her friend Janice Waters (you remember Janice?) about you and she told us a story about a friend of hers. Like you, she was a young woman who had been diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer. Unfortunately, she was pregnant at the time and they had to terminate the fetus. They gave her chemo and radiation- it's fifteen years later and she is not only alive and happy but she has two beautiful daughters!

Maybe you hear more sad stories in America because we tend to get the smoking cancer in older people? I don't know. What I do know is that you are young and strong and you WILL beat this thing.

The true southern drink

potlikker
The vitamin-rich liquid left after cooking greens, vegetables, meat, etc. This broth is particularly popular in the southern United States and is traditionally served separately with cornbread or corn pone.
