Cancer Control Society (CCS)
The Birth of the Place Where You Will Find Hope
Cecile Hoffman, a school teacher in San Diego CA, had had a radical mastectomy and was told that all her cancer had been eliminated. The cancer then spread to her female organs resulting in further surgery. Then the cancer continued to spread into her pelvis, spine, and ribs. She was told that there was no treatment that could help her and was told that she only had months to live. She then made her final arrangements. However, she learned that she could be treated with Laetrile in Canada so went there to begin treatment. She returned to San Diego, but was told by her doctor that he could not treat her with Laetrile. However, she found she could continue her Laetrile treatments in Mexico and did so at a cancer clinic in Tijuana Mexico across the border from San Diego, CA. By March 1964 x-rays showed the cancer was gone. As a result of her cancer experience she organized the International Society of Cancer Victims and Friends. The Los Angeles chapter became the largest chapter of the organization and later, in 1973, the Cancer Control Society was formed out of that chapter to provide information about alternative and complementary cancer therapies. Sadly, due to changes in Cecile’s personal life she had lost the desire to continue taking Laetrile and passed away in 1969.
CCS Annual Convention – INSPIRING!
Today one of the most important ways CCS serves cancer victims and cancer medical providers is to sponsor an annual convention where professionals from all over the world come to explain the various ways they are treating cancer with alternative and complementary therapies as well as any conventional treatments they use. During the convention many informative books are available as well as representatives of nutritional products most of which are associated with cancer control, prevention, and care. When the annual convention ends, a bus tour of some of the Tijuana Mexico cancer clinics is available where one can meet the doctors and learn what therapies are available and tour the cancer clinic facilities.
CCS Will Change Your Life
At the convention doctors and a few other professionals speak on the half hour over the 3 days of the convention. One of the highlights of the 3 day meeting is the hour devoted to cancer survivors telling their survival stories. Since I have attended the convention for each of the last 3 years, I can personally attest to the fact that if you arrive there with a prognosis giving you little hope, you will change your mind before you leave the convention due to the many wonderful treatments and therapies people find that are simply not commonly known due to barriers that exist in the practice of medicine and the flow of information in the U.S.
So much more information is available from CCS on its website. You can even order recordings of the presentations of past meetings. The office of the Cancer Control Society is located in Los Angeles CA and including the predecessor organization has been educating people about alternative cancer treatments since 1963.
