Breast
Cancer
By Diana Morrell
My name is Diana Morrell. I am 56 years old. On December 23rd 1994 I heard the words that every woman fears. "From all the indications it appears you have breast cancer. As soon as Christmas is over we will have to do a biopsy to be sure."
I don’t need to tell you that Christmas was not a happy time that year. On Dec. 27th I had the biopsy and it came back positive. Fortunately I had a wonderful young doctor who advised me to have a lumpectomy and chemotherapy. Thus saving me the further trauma of loosing my breast. On January 7th I learned that the cancer was in my lymph nodes. I went ahead and endured chemotherapy. Yes all my hair fell out and it was a very difficult time.
During this time I took lots of vitamins minerals and even used the mushroom tea that was so popular at that time. Another problem that I had was depression. Many factors caused this and I was finally given Zoloft to help me snap out of my poor state of mind. I know you are asking, "Why didn’t she just take Noni juice?" If you will look at the dates you will see that Noni was not available to the general public at that time.
It wasn’t until November 1996 that a good friend of mine, Jacqueline Miller, called and told me about Noni. Always one to try anything I feel will help my health I immediately bought a bottle. Within a few weeks I noticed I was feeling better but it took a couple of months for me to realize that it was the Noni that was making the difference. My doctors are amazed at how well I have done the last few years and how well my blood count has gone back to normal. I also was able to get off the Zoloft two years ago and have never felt the need to go back on. I’m now sure that I could have gotten off sooner but things were going so well that I was afraid to change anything.
I am now in my last six months before I get to that infamous five-year mark. I am doing great and all my blood work indicates that everything is normal. I would be lying if I told you that I don’t worry about the cancer coming back but everyday cancer free is another step away from that fear. I plan to take Noni for the rest of my life.
