I have lymphocytic lymphoma (a non-Hodgkin's type of lymphoma) and Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (a rare cancer of the blood). I was diagnosed in April of 1992, my spleen was removed, and I had chemotherapy treatments.

Since 1995, I have had a barrage of so-called medical protocol treatments (chemotherapies and radiation) that usually gain a person another 3 to 5 months. Then the symptoms return again. It is a vicious circle.

I went to the Burzynski Clinic in February of 1999. At that time, I had come to terms with my impending death, and I knew that the only help I could obtain would be from Dr. Burzynski.  Thank goodness I went to Houston.

The Burzynski Clinic is a wonderful place. It is extremely up-to-date, clean beyond compare, with knowledgeable and caring staff.

Dr. Burzynski's antineoplaston therapy, which is nontoxic, has given me positive results. My health has changed dramatically. It is like a miracle. My tumors are shrinking, and my blood test results are getting better. My nausea is gone, as is the uncontrollable pain. Antineoplaston treatment virtually turned my life around in a matter of 4 weeks, with no harmful side effects.

How can the United States government make things difficult for this treatment? Why make it so difficult for patients who only want to regain their health? People with cancer should be entitled to receive the best possible treatment that we feel would be beneficial to us and give us a better quality of life.
