He was greatly impressed with the pictures I had to show, of surface cases (also with the doctors reports and notes on the other cases). The doctors in Toronto had given me patients to treat under their observation, after everything known to medical science had failed.
Another noticeable development after Essiac treatments (and remarked upon by the many visiting doctors) was the fact that all the patients seemed to throw off all of their depressions, fears, distress, burdens and develop a new outlook on life. As pain decreased and disappeared they would become happy and talkative. My waiting room was the brightest spot in my clinic. Patients were happy to talk to visiting doctors, and would tell of how distressed they were when they first came for treatments and how much relief from pain they had after a few treatments, etc. They were no longer sick at heart - they had hope.
Many patients were brought to the clinic in ambulances and their first treatment had to be administered to them in the ambulance. After the fourth, or fifth, sometimes the sixth treatment, they could come in a car and walk with assistance into the clinic. It would not be long before they could walk in without assistance. This was a happy event for them because many of them never hoped to even get out of bed again.
It was about this time that my own dear mother became ill. The four town doctors said that she had gallstones and her heart was too weak for an operation. As she got worse I insisted on calling Dr Roscoe Graham, a consulting specialist of international fame, for an examination and consultation with the other doctors. Mother was 72 years old at the time.
After the consultation Dr Graham came to me and said: "Your mother has cancer, Miss Caisse, her liver is a nodular mass.
And Dr McGibbon, who was set against my cancer work, said very sarcastically:"Why don't you do something?"
I answered:"I'm certainly going to try, Doctor. How long has she got?"I asked Dr Graham.
And he said that he thought it would be only a matter of days.
I immediately started treating her with Essiac. I gave it daily for ten days. When she improved, I reduced the treatments to three a week, then to two, then to one. As she continued to improve, to make a long story short, my mother completely recovered and passed away quietly after her 90th birthday, with no pain, just a tired heart.
This repaid me for all of my work, having given my mother 18 years of life which she would not have had and made up for a great deal of the persecution I had endured at the hands of the medical world.
My faith in my discovery, and the help I could give to suffering humanity, made it possible for me to endure the opposition I encountered. My faith that some day, somehow " Essiac" would be made available to all cancer sufferers all over the world. A monetary reward never entered into my mind. The look of gratitude I saw in the eyes of my patients when relief from pain was accomplished and the hope and relief when they saw their malignancies reducing, was pay enough for my endeavour.
For years the ministers and priests offered special prayers in their churches that my treatment would be accepted by the medical world. These ministers and priests saw these patients come into town very ill, and saw them improve, and recover from their illnesses, and as I had patients from all denominations they knew that my work was for the good of suffering humanity, and they prayed that God would smile upon it.
Cancer has baffled medical science for many, many years and the death rate is increasing in leaps and bounds. After fifty years of medical research, medical science knows not the cause, nor the cure for it.
Recurrences of cancer after surgery are frequent. Should they not know this treatment is wrong in a great many cases?
The acceptable diagnosis for cancer by the medical world is to cut out a section of the growth for analysis.
This method aggravates the growth into growing more rapidly and thereby lessens the patient's chance of recovery.
This has been their method for years. X-ray locates the growth, medical science has to operate before it is acknowledged to be cancer.
The medical profession is as reluctant to accept
ANY new method of treatment,
as they were in the time of Louis Pasteur,
when he suggested the sterilisation of instruments for operations.
