EP 95 | Jessica Bustamante Author of ”Cancer Void”
Today I was honored to have interviewed cancer survivor and published author Jessica Bustamante with a life mission to educate cancer patients and the public on holistic preventative solutions for this horrible disease. Jessica Bustamante's bio from her impactful book titled "Cancer Void": The single mom (Jessica Bustamante) had found a pea-sized bump on the side of her breast one night while getting ready for bed and that week went to see a doctor for her first mammogram and biopsy. Three weeks later the bump was the size of a lemon. After 14 rounds of chemotherapy and surgery, an infection landed Jessica back in the hospital. Emergency surgery was soon followed by her second cancer diagnosis, this time in the lungs. There was no question her cancer was aggressive.  “They told me the average growth rate of cancer is 12-25% and mine had a growing rate of 87%,” said Jessica. “They gave me an average life span of a year with chemo.” Jessica pursued additional ammunition for her fight and changed her lifestyle. In 2015 she was told she was in remission and started her new lease on life. Just one year later though, cancer came back and this time so strong it robbed her of her voice and ability to swallow. “When I saw the x-rays there were tumors everywhere,” she recalled. “The doctor told me to go home because I wasn’t going to make it through chemo.”Her diagnosis of bone cancer was so grim, she was placed in hospice.  Jessica endured six rounds of chemo and again resorted to non-traditional treatment methods to enhance her therapy. She stopped traditional treatment in 2016 and attributes her survival to her strong faith and the decision to change her life.   See the full video here: https://youtu.be/uimCMxHeAsw     Social Media Handles: https://www.facebook.com/Jessicasotobustamante http://www.cancervoid.com/ Find Jessica's book "Cancer Void Here: https://www.amazon.com/Cancer-Void-Holistic-Solution-Diagnosis/dp/B08DBHCY8F   Give us a follow!
