However- have you considered the possibility that an Internet forum is not a reliable place for that kind of information? I would recommend seeking out a health practitioner in your area that is a good fit for your philosophy, while keeping in mind that if they aren't a good fit for your family member's philosophy as well, he or she will probably not be too open to their suggestions
I think this is a great place to discuss health. Look I've got a doctor and Monica (her nutritional advice strongly resonates with me) debating the issue! Further I don't have funds to procure a health practitioner and my family member is very happy with his oncologist and would be unlikely to replace him based on my advice.
My aim in putting in the request for information was to see what arose, and if anything clicked I'd do further research. I would put the onus on myself to determine what resonates rather than expect the forum to be a 'reliable' source of information.
But I do appreciate your sentiments. I'm very wary of alternative cancer treatments as there is a glut of them.
