New Cancer Radiation Burn Relief! Sunburn Relief!





Are you having Radiation treatments and have red, blistered or irritated skin?
Do you sunburn when you go out to the beach or your child’s baseball game? This New Product May be just what you need!



I was talking to my best friend yesterday. She lives in Florida, had gone to the beach and had gotten serious sunburn on her head and face. She could not touch her forehead, it was so seriously burned.



A good friend of ours had recently gone through a series of radiation treatments for breast cancer. She had gotten severe Radiation burns and was given a new product to try on her burns
It immediately gave her relief and helped heal her blistered skin. She gave my friend some to try on her sunburn.



According to both of them this is the best product around for Radiation Burns and Severe Sunburn.



It is called: RADIADERM



Radiaderm is a 2 Step Treatment.



The first step is the cooling gel that cools and hydrates the skin to relieve discomfort and irritation and helps to promote healing. The gel is a water-based gel designed to quickly draw the heat out of a burn by acting as a heat exchanger. Heat energy is spread over the whole gel surface and at the outer surface of the gel, the heat is released into the air.



The second step is the Soothing Lotion that protects, moisturizes and helps promote healing. Also includes a sunscreen. The lotion helps to rejuvenate damaged skin stressed by radiation. It can also be included in your daily skincare routine.



The Cooling Gel and Soothing Lotion contain Lactokine™ Fluid, a milk-based skin rejuvenator that has been used in personal care products for over 15 years. Lactokine helps build the skin’s defense and protects against inflammation and helps stressed skin recover faster.



The Radiaderm™ Advanced Skincare System with Lactokine™ is listed in most national drug databanks with the National Drug Code Number NDC 59898-130-30 and may be eligible for reimbursement through insurance.



You can go to their web site at http://www.radiaderm.com/ to get all the information about this new product.



You can order online at http://www.radiaderm.com/ and Get free ground shipping!
Order Toll-free at 1-800 -693-1171or Contact your radiation center or hospital pharmacy.



To your Health, Leigh

Is Breast Cancer Hereditary?


According to BreastCancer.org, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing reliable, complete and current information about breast cancer, only 5 - 10 percent of cancers are due to an abnormality inherited from a parent.


While all breast cancer are caused by a genetic abnormality, roughly 90 percent of breast cancer cases are the result of genetic abnormalities that are a result of everyday life.

This information is from BreastCancer.org.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and we will be posting informative blogs all month about Breast Cancer. Please check back.

Good health to us all,

Where to Get Financial Help with Cancer Treatments!


Even as new cancer treatments offer hope for some, their cost is out of reach for many. Tens of thousands of people seek help from drug companies and charities that provide free medicines or cover copays for people who can't afford it.


Here is a list (from the Associated Press on 9-27) of places to seek help:






Patient Advocate Foundation: 800-532-5274 http://www.patientadvocate.org/


CancerCare: 866-552-6729 http://www.cancercarecopay.org/


Chronic Disease Fund: 877-968-7233 http://www.cdfund.org/


Healthwell Foundation: 800-675-8416 http://www.healthwellfoundation.org/


Leukemia & Lymphoma Society: 877-557-2672 www.LLS.org/copay


National Organization for Rare Disorders: 800-999-6673 http://www.rarediseases.org/


Patient Access Network Foundation: 866-316-7263 http://www.panfoundation.org/


Patient Advocate Foundation: 866-512-3861 http://www.copays.org/


Patient Services Inc.: 800-366-7741 http://www.patientservicesinc.org/


As more and more people lose their jobs and can not get insurance and as the price of cancer drugs skyrocket, these services will be more in demand. If you need help with the cost of your treatment contact the companies above and see if they can help you. Who knows how long these programs will be available?

The Annie Appleseed Project, Breast Cancer Info Site




As an "Older" Woman I am a member of AARP and today I got my AARP Bulletin with some great information about alternative medicine and cancer treatment.


One of the Articles was about Ann Fonfa, who started the Annie Appleseed Project and how it is celebrating it's 10th Anniversary this year. Ann is a fifteen year survivor of Breast Cancer and has done much research into the potential benefits of unconventional therapies.


Please go to her site, http://www.annieappleseedproject.org/ and search through some of the information that is making this site of of the leading sources of information on breast cancer.


I found the site very impressive and learned some new information myself.


Good Health to You All!!


I got a sweet message from Kelly telling me that my blog about the "Red Devil" Chemo had helped her and thanking me. I want to thank Kelly and all my readers as I have been going through a rough patch in my life lately and I really appreciate the feedback I have received.

Thanks Again
