Melanoma Treatments – There Are Options!

A Different Perspective on Melanoma Treatments

In 1999 Jerrod Sessler was diagnosed with Metastasized melanoma – a particularly nasty and invasive form of cancer that spreads rapidly from it’s original source throughout the body via the lymph and blood system.  Once metastasized, melanoma tends to venture to high blood organs first such as the brain, liver and lungs.  Once there, the customary skin cancer mole now begins invasive tumor growth from the inside.  For this reason melanoma is considered the most serious form of cancer, especially once it has metastasized.  Metastasized melanoma accounts for around 2% of all cancer deaths each year and is difficult to both monitor and treat as it is hard to discover where in the body it has traveled to. At the age of 29 his prognosis was not good and doctors gave him only a 5% chance of living beyond his 30′s. As such, he began looking for melanoma treatments and this included the standard and typical allopathic approaches to cancer treatment. In his studies and exploration of various melanoma treatments available, he discovered some shocking and unsettling facts about some of the more “traditional” oncology options. For instance, one of the most commonly prescribed approaches for melanoma was a drug called Interferon – well known for it’s toxicity and dangerous side effects but not so often is discussed the fact that about 5% of people who take it actually die from the drug itself!

Gradual Steps to Holistic Melanoma Treatments

Jerrod’s diagnosis was over ten years ago now and he’s well beyond his period of 5% chance of life expectancy. His awe inspiring story is documented in a book he authored titled “Five Percent Chance.” Since that very difficult time he has built a wonderful family, including three beautiful children, a wonderful loving wife and has gone on to build several successful businesses and to pursue his passion of NASCAR driving. He was so inspired by his own personal experience and so willing to share in his now found knowledge of natural and holistic melanoma cancer treatments that he wrote his own book – “Five Percent Chance – Winning the Cancer Race.”

Jerrods approach to fighting cancer is one of taking personal responsibility for one’s health, learning what it is that forms the basis of good health and then taking action to implement changes to your diet and lifestyle that give your body the best chance of fighting this disease -  not on it’s own – but by being better aligned and more aware of a faith in an all powerful higher power. His story is not one of radicalism or extreme views on diet but rather a sensible formula to shift in gradual increments to a place of good health, clearer thinking and an overall more fulfilling life.
