Treating Cancer with sound waves

NEW TREATMENT USES SOUNDWAVES TO DESTROY TUMOURS WITHOUT SURGERY OR RADIOTHERAPY

A revolutionary new cancer treatment, called histotripsy, is becoming a game-changer. Approved by the FDA in America, this non-invasive therapy utilises ultrasound waves that target cancer cells with pinpoint precision, breaking them apart instantly without harming surrounding tissue.

Providence Mission Hospital in Viejo, California, is at the forefront of this groundbreaking treatment, providing hope for patients like Chris Donaldson who faced limited options after his ocular melanoma spread to his liver.

Unlike traditional treatments, histotripsy leaves behind benign genetic material, potentially strengthening the body’s immune response against cancer. One of its key advantages is that it requires no incisions, making recovery quicker and less painful. Using degassed water to focus the soundwaves, doctors can liquefy tumours without damaging nearby organs, allowing for repeat treatments as necessary.

Patients like Donaldson, who had been given a grim prognosis, are now experiencing remarkable results – his liver remains cancer-free months after the procedure.

As research continues, experts believe this innovative approach could be expanded to treat other cancers, including those affecting the thyroid and breast. For many, histotripsy represents not just a medical breakthrough, but a second chance at life.

I have joined with many parents affected with the surreal , yet accepted issue of child abuse via Pathogenic Parenting / Domestic abuse. As a survivor of Domestic Abuse, denial abounded that 3 sons were not affected. In my desire to be family to those who have found me lacking . As a survivor of psychiatric abuse, therapist who abused also and toxic prescribed medications took me to hell on earth with few moments of heaven. I will share my life, my experiences and my studies and research.. I will talk to small circles and I will council ; as targeted parents , grandparents , aunts , uncles etc. , are denied contact with a child for reasons that serve the abuser ...further abusing the child. I grasp the trauma and I have looked at the lost connection to a higher power.. I grasp when one is accustomed to privilege, equality can feel like discrimination.. Shame and affluence silences a lot of facts , truths that have been labeled "negative". It is about liberation of the soul from projections of a alienator , and abuser ..
