ARA Review by e74852 of Winning the War on Cancer
[Following is an OnlineBookClub.org ARA Review of the book, Winning the War on Cancer.]
Dr. Mirko Beljanski deserved a Nobel Prize for discovering a cure for cancer with his Pao Pieria but instead, he got persecuted by French government using the French military. Thank goodness Sylvie decided to fight the big pharma and resurrect her dad, Dr. Mirko Beljanski, legacy.
The author, Sylvie Beljanski, went through an epic journey to try and resurrect her father's formula. She went through some major hardships in the tropical jungle of Brazil to secure raw materials for the medicine. Those hardships included eating boiled snakes, mosquitoes attack, sleeping on hammock with wet clothing, and traveled through dangerous water filled with crocodiles. These adventure episodes in Brazil were bad enough already but comparing to the death of Dr. Schachter, her dad’s friend who had been mentoring her, and needing to move the lab from France to U.S, while securing the funding to complete her father’s work, author must have steel resolve. Although author tried to keep her writing about her emotions suppressed, but one can tell she must have gone through some incredible emotional trauma to successfully launch her dad's legacy.
This book opens with the author pointing out that her parents were emotionally unavailable due to the fact that they were brilliant researchers and scientists who were trying to save the world with their cancer fighting product Pao Pieria. Although the author has been taken care of physically, she grew up without emotional support and she was a loner. Even during teenage year, when she was trying to date and impress her date, she came home to a house filled with golden Gingko leaves drying all over the floor. Growing up in an intellectual family, she found herself excel academically. She studied law, and became a successful attorney. She was living in NY with her attorney husband when big pharmaceutical companies colluding with the French government decided to raid her dad’s lab and jailed him in his home without a trial. Author fought the French government to grant her dad a trial and after several years, won the case. Unfortunately, by then, it was too late and her dad died.
Author promised her dad that she will continue his legacy and continue his research. From someone who had absolutely no medical knowledge to understanding how to create the product, she went through Hercules efforts of research, development, implementation and marketing. She was able to obtain help from her mother, her dad’s colleagues, lab assistance and friends. First, she had to understand medicine, then she had to move the lab from France to New York, after that, she had to secure raw materials to manufacture the medicine. Her adventure to the Amazon forests was filled with hardships and threats. She was able to find the tree and secure a nursery to grow the tree. The Brazilian government destroying her nursery after a year in the name of environmental protection. Author was able to source the raw materials from Peru due to the help of her dad’s former contractors. The help almost seem surreal like a divine intervention.
By then, the author has become emotionally and physically exhausted and found herself in the hospital going through a cancer scare. She finally realized the holistic connection between mind and body and how her emotions were triggering the body’s responses to health or illness. She also realized the lack of emotional unavailability from her dad resulted in her marriage to her cold and distance husband. Once that connection was realized, she was able to make better choices. She filed for divorce and using her own medicine, she was able to healed herself.
Dr. Beljanski's journey is eerily similar to Dr. Harry Hoxsey. The U.S government tried to buy him out and then shut down his method but he didn't comply, so finally, they persecuted him. A patient's daughter, an Allopathic nurse, tried to bebunk him by working for him, ended up continued his legacy in Tijuana Mexico.
I give this book 5 out of 5 because the book was written in a clear, concise, engaging way. Sylvie was able to put very complex and technical information into layman's terms.
