Essiac Tea

I first heard about Essiac Tea from a dear friend and herbalist. When she told me about it I wondered why I had never heard of it before, but then I realized that there are many things, good things, that I've never heard of before. I then discussed the tea with another friend who runs a herbalist shop. She also had good things to say concerning Essiac. That's when I decided to do a little research and learned that there are many possibilities associated with Essiac Tea. I'm posting the following link to one of the articles that I read online. I will say that after reading several articles on the subject that I decided to purchase the tea for my dad. Granted, his cancer IS advanced and Essiac is NOT a definite cure for advanced stages of cancer. Still, I had to try. Not that he is taking it. He is stubborn, but when you have a loved one diagnosed with cancer, and physicians have proclaimed there is nothing else they can do, you either say, "Okay, this is the end. I'll sit here and hold your hand while you die." Or else you say, "Well, it ain't over til it's over and not only will I sit here and hold your hand, but I'll pray for you and fight with you until you take your last breath here on earth." I guess I'm the kind of gal who does the later. I don't like to quit in the middle of a movie, forfeit a game or walk away from a task. I'm betting I'm not the only person like that. I just don't believe in throwing in the towel and burying a person before he or she's dead. So would I try herbs? You bet your life I would.
