What Does Success Mean?
What Does “Success Rate” Mean to You?
One of the most common questions and the most difficult to answer well is “What is your success rate”?
No Standard Definition for “Success Rate”
There is not a good definition of the term ‘success rate’ for cancer patients anywhere in the medical literature.Because of that, ‘success rate’ always has a different meaning to the person asking this question than it does for the person trying to answer it.
Due to the lack of a uniform definition of ‘success rate’ we as doctors and patients must define for ourselves what ‘success’ means when asking and answering this question in the context of treatment outcomes for cancer patients.
What is Your Definition of “Success”?
Success can be defined as achieving complete remission of cancer for many years.In fact, a complete remission for 5 years is generally considered a “cure”.That is because statistically, the majority of recurrences in cancer occur more than 5 years following initial remission.
Success can also be defined as improving one’s quality of life, extending life far beyond what would have been expected otherwise, preventing a surgery, or living with cancer as a chronic disease rather than dying because of it.
Those who come to us with open minds and have not had prior conventional medical treatments have naturally stronger systems to begin with.These people are more likely to meet their definition of success in less time and with less effort.
Those who have already had extensive chemotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery will have the side-effects of these therapies to overcome in addition to a more compromised immune system.These people are often able to achieve their successes also, it just takes more time and more work.
Dr. Ryke Hamer Had Over a 90% Survival Rate in “Terminal” Cancer Cases
Our Integrative Medicine Program of CareTM incorporates methods of identifying and treating the underlying causes of cancerDr. Ryke Hamer was an oncologist in charge of a large cancer treatment center in Germany.
Dr. Hamer experienced a sudden and severe emotional trauma; his son was accidentally shot and subsequently died in his arms.A few months later Dr. Hamer developed testicular cancer.
Dr. Hamer realized that his cancer was probably related to his reaction to his son’s sudden and violent death.He began to look into the history of the patients in his cancer clinic and found a striking correlation between the timing of their experiencing a highly stressful emotional event and the subsequent development of their cancers.
As Dr. Hamer began to research this further he was able to release the emotional conflict aspects of his emotional reaction to his son’s death, and then he recovered from his testicular cancer.He then developed means of helping his cancer patients find the roots of their deeply-based emotional memories.In helping his patients release those, Dr. Hamer ultimately documented over 6,000 patients out of 6,500 “terminal” cancer patients who were still alive 4 to 5 years later.
Dr. Ryke Hamer had over a 90% survival rate of patients who were diagnosed and treated for various forms of “terminal” cancer.That could be used as a good definition of “success rate”.
