His mission: Breast cancer treatment for black women

By The Admin on September 19, 2008

In 2006, the Sinai Urban Health Institute studied the breast cancer mortality rates between African-American and white women in Chicago, and found that the mortality rate for African-American women in Chicago is 68 percent higher than that of white women.

Dr. David Ansell, vice president and chief medical officer for Rush University Medical Center, learned that not only is there a disparity, but it’s the largest reported in the United States. “This is unacceptable,” Ansell says.

    Thank you for your cogent thoughts on cancer treatment; this is an important topic of conversation, and I found your contributions provocative and insightful.

    The organization I work for, the Pacific Northwest Foundation, is devoted to researching alternative modes of healing for a variety of illnesses, including cancer. I wanted to share with you a video presentation of a case study we conducted some years ago about an elderly woman with terminal cancer who, through a variety of methods, was able to eliminate her tumors. The link to the presentation is http://pnf.org/html/cancer.html.

    I'd like to thank you so much for your contribution to the subject of cancer treatment, and hope you will find the case study above helpful in your continued exploration into the subject.
