The Truth About Cancer minute, this is a business. This is his business. He needs patients to make money. Ty: And this is the same oncologist that told you were insane if you didn’t do chemo. Chris Wark: That’s right, the same guy. Ty: Okay. Chris Wark: And it was like a Freudian slip. You know what I mean Either that or it was the push away which is a sales technique. And where you kind of give someone like I don’t really need your business and it kind of makes them want to do business with you. You know what I mean Ty: Yeah Chris Wark: And—but I thought about everything and I thought, you know what, nutrition makes more sense to me. I would rather overdose on nutrition and give my body everything that it can use to repair and regenerate and detoxify and heal and trust God to lead me in the process than let someone who doesn’t even know me at all, probably has already forgotten my name, poison me, and experiment on me with a 60 percent chance of living five years. I found out later that he was lying. What he told me was that I had a 60 percent chance of living five years. But that’s the average for all cancer patients. So if take every cancer patient lump them in one group and average it out you get 60 percent of them make it to the five year mark. It doesn’t mean they’re cancer free in five years. It just means they have a beating heart. Some of them are on life support, right. Some of them are knock, knock, knocking on heaven’s door. They are dying. But they still are counted as a success toward five year survival. Well, the odds for stage III colon cancer, stage IIIC were about 30 percent make it to five years and only 16 percent make it 10 years. Ty: Wow! So Chris Wark: Here I am—10 years without their therapies. Ty: Okay. So 10 years out and cancer free without—and you said you decided not to do chemotherapy. Chris Wark: That’s right. Ty: So but before you got the port put in I assume. The Quest for The Cures Page 218

Episode 7: How to Survive and Thrive Chris Wark: I was a no show for the port. Ty: Okay. Chris Wark: After that they sent me a certified letter. They were calling my house. They were after me to try to get me to do chemotherapy. And I just was avoiding their calls. I’m like leave me alone. Like I’ve made up my mind. This is what I’m doing. Ty: Did you ever talk to the oncologist about the phony statistics or the incorrect statistics that he gave you because clearly that was not accurate. Chris Wark: No, I never went back. And I know why he did it. He did it because he knew the truth was extremely discouraging. You know, if he had come in and said, look, with the therapies we have available you’ve got about at 30 percent chance of living five years. I would have been out the door in five seconds. See ya! But he told me 60 percent because he thought, well, you know, maybe this will sound better. This will be more encouraging. Maybe it’ll give him more hope, right It’ll make the treatment sound more appealing, right. 60’s way better than 30. So that’s why I did it. That’s why I did it. It’s just basic economics. They need a steady supply of patients to make money and you know, doctors aren’t bad people but they’re trained. They go to med school and they go to—they have residency and it takes 15 – 20 years for a doctor to go through all the training and actually go through enough practice before they realize that everything they’ve been trained to do doesn’t really work and that most of their patients end up dying. And by that times its too late to change careers and they’re making a high six figure income. The average oncologist makes almost 300 thousand dollars a year. And yet in a survey that just came out about a month ago on Medscape, 52 percent of oncologists reported that they were unsatisfied with their income. Ty: Wow! And they’re making—the average makes over Chris Wark: $290 thousand a year. Ty: That’s a lot of money. Chris Wark: That’s a lot of money to be unsatisfied about. Ty: It’s not enough apparently.

Ty: And this is <strong>the</strong> same oncologist that told you were insane if<br />

Chris Wark: That’s right, <strong>the</strong> same guy.<br />

Ty: Okay.<br />

Chris Wark: And it was like a Freudian slip. You know what I mean<br />

Ei<strong>the</strong>r that or it was <strong>the</strong> push away which is a sales technique. And<br />

where you kind of give someone like I don’t really need your business<br />

and it kind of makes <strong>the</strong>m want to do business with you. You know what<br />

I mean<br />

Ty: Yeah<br />

Chris Wark: And—but I thought <strong>about</strong> everything and I thought, you<br />

know what, nutrition makes more sense to me. I would ra<strong>the</strong>r overdose<br />

on nutrition and give my body everything that it can use to repair and<br />
