"Johns Hopkins" Cancer Info a Hoax

I previously had information on the blog that was purportedly from Johns Hopkins Medical Center. I have been informed by alert reader (to use a phrase from Dave Barry) and high school friend, Ted Raphael, that this article is a hoax. Ted obviously did the research that I should have. The url from Johns Hopkins that describes the hoax is: http://www.hopkinskimmelcancercenter.org/news/index.cfm?

Though I agree with the thoughts in the article, I have removed it from the blog. You'll find much of the same information in new links that I have posted. One is from Cancer Tutor. This site has an incredible amount of useful material that is an alternative to the traditional medical approach.

The other link I have added is to Cancer Treatment Centers of America. I have already made a visit in December to their midwest center in Zion, Illinois and will be getting more treatment there in 2008. More about this later in another post. These links appear at the left side of the main page.

Thanks to Ted for keeping me and this blog shipshape.
