The Truth About Cancer<br />

and think <strong>about</strong> it. So I spent a lot of time doing things with my diet for<br />

<strong>about</strong> five months. And I think <strong>the</strong> most telling thing for me was before I<br />

went to a raw food retreat my PET CTs were in <strong>the</strong> seven to eight<br />

values and just three weeks later after coming back <strong>the</strong>y were less than<br />

three, which anything less than three is normal. So that told me right<br />

<strong>the</strong>re that I could heal this with nutrition.<br />

Ty: With raw foods<br />

Kelly: With raw foods.<br />

Ty: Okay.<br />

Kelly: So at <strong>the</strong> time I opted to do—to have <strong>the</strong> mastectomy performed<br />

because it was just so large. I just wanted to take <strong>the</strong> burden off <strong>the</strong><br />

body. So I did that and <strong>the</strong>n—maybe that’s too much information.<br />

Anyway, <strong>the</strong>y <strong>the</strong>n still were just like you have to do chemo. You have to<br />

do radiation. And I just, you know, had no desire to do it. And <strong>the</strong>n <strong>the</strong>y<br />

said you want to do tamoxifen, <strong>the</strong>y wanted me to do tamoxifen, and no.<br />

I didn’t want to do any drugs. I had done all my research. And I went to<br />

all <strong>the</strong> doctors and <strong>the</strong>y said, oh, that doesn’t mean anything. And this<br />

was research from Sloan-Kettering and MD Anderson and all that. So<br />

anyway, I had a small spot on my sternum that <strong>the</strong>y wanted to treat with<br />

radiation and I said, no, this is too close to my heart, too close to my<br />

lungs. And I decided to do it naturally and <strong>the</strong>n I was fine. For <strong>about</strong> a<br />

year and a half everything was great.<br />

Ty: And how long ago was this<br />

Kelly: This was in—that was in 2012.<br />

Ty: Okay.<br />

Kelly: And I got a little cocky, got a lot back to living a crazy life, living a<br />

crazy job, back to drinking wine, not eating raw foods, eating meat<br />

again, and on August 2012 I was diagnosed with stage IV. So I had<br />

<strong>about</strong> a three inch lesion on my sternum here and it was also in my<br />

lower spine and in my left hip. So it was throughout my bones. And in<br />

December of 2012 I was given 19 months and pretty much told by my<br />

oncologist at <strong>the</strong> time that <strong>the</strong> only options were palliative, not curative,<br />

that <strong>the</strong>re was…<br />

Ty: Make you comfortable<br />

Kelly: Yeah, make me comfortable. There was no cure. There really<br />

was no hope. This is also <strong>the</strong> same oncologist who told me <strong>the</strong> following<br />
