Faith heals - by Jeff Scorer and his mother, Joan
... Then after another short remission a stomach tumour was diagnosed. Lots more painful treatment began and through out this Jeff's faith continued to grow and he would only accept the trial treatment as he knew that others would benefit from this. His teacher continued to visit him and although he was so ill he was very happy and peaceful. Then again he went into remission.
A few months later another type of brain tumour was found and all the usual treatment began again. Some times the untested treatment was so painful and caused many unknown side effects that due to Jeff's experience it was discontinued. He always said that he was glad that he had been the person to experience this pain as it saved others from having to do it.
...
Then the next tumour was a very aggressive type which was in his stomach again. This one grew very rapidly. No treatment could shrink this tumour and with the other ones he had been told by doctors at various times that he only had a few months to live but this time it was 2 weeks!
He was very ill and the tumour rapidly grew to the size of a melon and at Jeff's request all treatment was stopped. His kind teacher visited him frequently and gave him advice and meditations. At this time Jeff began to give away most of his belongs and soon did not have much left but he had no attachment to anything. Friends and family came to say Good bye.
Then one evening he became violently ill and called his McMillan Nurse in. She was amazed at what she found and took samples which were later found to be bits of tumour which had suddenly broken up. A few days later a scan showed that the stomach tumour had gone. ...
