Margaret Manning

October 29, 2009

My name is Margaret Manning, age 53, and reside in Mesa, Arizona.  I enjoy being a wife and mother of 6 children.  My husband and I have eleven darling grandchildren as well.

In March of 2009, I was diagnosed with“mantle cell non- Hodgkin’s lymphoma cancer.” What a shock!  I was always the healthy one who was able to serve others!  Suddenly my life took an interesting twist.  I was told by my oncologist that the treatment consisted of the strongest form of chemotherapy in the hospital as well as bone marrow transplant.  He said that the cancer would come back and that I would need to repeat the bone marrow transplant again after 18 months.  He gave me an average of 3 years to live if I followed his plan.  

After much study and prayer, my husband and I decided that we were not going to go the traditional way which included chemotherapy and bone marrow transplant, as it didn’t work for this particular form of cancer.  We were guided to the Burzynski Clinic in Houston, Texas.  So, I began the treatment and am rapidly improving.  Each CT/Pet scan shows that the tumors are either shrinking or disappearing altogether.  If all goes as expected, I should be in remission by February of 2010.  My Oncologist here in Arizona is amazed at my recovery and tells me to continue with it.  He is happy to work with Dr. Burzynski and order the blood work and other medical needs necessary.  My experience at the Burzynski Clinic has been nothing but positive.  They are professional and even better, the treatment works.  My friends and neighbors are very supportive of my treatment and are happy to know that if they come down with cancer that they have an alternative to the medical care that is currently offered.  I hope that anyone that would like to speak to me would feel free to call at 480-834-9515 or 480-643-0358.  You can also email me at  This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
