This just in, even the First Lady has/had skin cancer! Too bad she didn't get some black salve, as many people who have skin cancers surgically removed have them spread to other areas or come back in the same spot all together! Read the following, and remember, go to the home page www.blacksalveinfo.com for the TRUTH about cancer and how to treat it naturally.

First lady Laura Bush had a skin cancer tumor removed from her right shin in early November. The procedure was not disclosed until Monday night. The cancer was identified as a squamous cell carcinoma, a malignant tumor that is the second most common form of skin cancer.

Explaining why the procedure was not disclosed until now, the first lady's press secretary Susan Whitson said, "This medical procedure was a private matter for Mrs. Bush, but when asked by the media today, we answered the question."

The first lady was noted wearing a bandage on her right leg before the election. At the time Whitson said Mrs. Bush had a sore on her shin.

In late October, Mrs. Bush had a biopsy because the sore was not healing, Whitson said, and it was determined to be a squamous cell carcinoma.

That type of skin cancer is a tumor that affects the middle portion of the epidermal skin layer. It is more aggressive than basal cell cancer, the most common form of skin cancer. Squamous cell cancer is more likely than basal cell cancer to spread to other locations, so patients need to have lymph nodes in the region near the tumor routinely examined, according to the National Cancer Institute's Web site.

Whitson said Mrs. Bush's tumor was removed under a local anesthetic. She called it "a little surgical procedure. It's no big deal. She detected it early. She caught it early." No further treatment was needed.

Whitson said the patch was about the size of a nickel and became a matter of concern just before Election Day, Nov. 7.

"It's healing fine and it has not interrupted her schedule at all," Whitson said. In the same month she had the operation, Mrs. Bush accompanied her husband on a trip to Singapore and Vietnam.

In 2001, President Bush had four lesions removed from his face, including two caused by a common skin ailment that can lead to cancer if left untreated. None of the four were cancerous, the White House said.

People with fair skin and prolonged sun exposure are more likely to develop squamous cell carcinoma, and it is more common in the southern latitudes of the northern hemisphere. Mrs. Bush is from Texas.

Squamous cell carcinoma shouldn't be confused with melanoma, the most dangerous form of skin cancer. Together, basal and squamous cell carcinoma are responsible for less than 0.1 percent of cancer deaths, while the American Cancer Society estimates almost 8,000 Americans will die from melanoma this year.

More than 1 million cases of basal and squamous cell skin cancers are expected to be diagnosed this year, according to the American Cancer Society, which says that most but not all of these forms of skin cancer are highly curable.

Monday's revelation was the second case this year of a belated White House announcement. In February, the White House waited almost a day before disclosing that Vice President Dick Cheney had shot a fellow hunter during a quail-hunting trip.

View an MD's book from 1948, cured thousands of cancer using salves!

Check the link on the left side of www.blacksalveinfo.com for some incredible research that was conducted over 50 years by an MD who cured thousands of people of cancer with salves. Not just skin cancer, but bone cancer, breast cancer, lung, and liver cancer as well. When you view the actual book online they will use the word "escharotics" which are salves. Also, there is more evidence that the cancers come from a yeast as the book states: Escharotics....which will destroy any living or "fungus growth" in the treatment of cancer, lupus, sarcoma or any other forms of malignancy.

Black Salve, the natural treatment for skin cancer.

Have you heard that there is an herbal compound called Black Salve, touted as a natural cure for skin cancer? I first heard about this compound 8 years ago but it has been around for a very long time. We will get to more of that in a moment, but first, did you know that there is an epidemic of skin cancer in the US?

“The United States is in the midst of a of skin cancer epidemic, according to a report in from the Mayo Clinic. The report goes on to state, “One in five Americans will develop skin cancer, and a person's risk of the disease doubles if that person has had five or more sunburns, according to the Mayo statistics. Basal and squamous cell carcinomas, the most common and treatable types of skin cancers, had long been considered a problem only for people over 50, according to the report. But Mayo researchers report that percentage of women under 40 with the more common type, basal cell, tripled between 1976 and 2003, while the rate of squamous cell cancers increased 400 percent.”

The standard procedure for skin cancer treatment in US hospitals is surgery, chemotherapy, and even radiation, with no significant cure rate! Getting back to black salve, while there are many variations of this herbal compound, the man who first spread the word about and healing from black salve was a man named Harry Hoxsey, founder of the "Hoxsey Method". Hoxsey is the great-grandson of John Hoxsey, an American physician who discovered a remarkably effective cancer cure in 1840 after watching horses with cancer cure themselves by grazing on specific herbs they instinctually searched out.

Harry Hoxsey had no formal medical training, but began promoting his great-grandfather's original cancer formula which contained the herbs, bloodroot, burdock, red clover, pokeroot, barberry root, buckthorn, prickly ash, stillingia root and cascara. This black salve formulation was stunningly effective on cancer, and it wasn’t long before word of his cancer treatments spread across the US. Along with his success came the scrutiny of the FDA and Big Pharma who saw his cure rate as a huge threat to their personal financial interests. Though Hoxsey never claimed to be a doctor, he was arrested hundreds of times, mostly for practicing medicine without a license!

Just a few years ago, another man names Greg Caton developed a similar product, sold it on the internet, and before to long was also arrested. One of his employees described the situation as follows, “Yes, Greg was forced/railroaded into pleading guilty for defrauding customers (something even the judge could clearly see that Greg did not want to plea to since he NEVER defrauded ANYONE). But - I guess the threat of arresting your wife, sending your son to foster care and arresting 3 employees as accomplices in the so called "conspiracy to defraud" could drive a person to admit to just about anything.

The FDA NEVER ordered us to stop selling anything...we NEVER got a warning letter, a phone call, anything. We were simply raided on September 17th, 2003 at 9:10 am like crack-cocaine dealers. They came in guns drawn (some on full body armor) and demanded that everyone get on the floor (I along with 2 other employees refused). They can not and did not order us to stop selling the products, the only thing they can demand is that our products have no claims, what-so-ever. However, the products were stolen from us by the FDA, therefore we have no products to sell.”

There was never a validated complaint to the FDA about any of the variations of the formula sold under any name to this date! This article was written for the purpose of educating “you the people” about the TRUTH regarding health care choices! Do your own research and you will find a wealth of valid research information on the topic of herbal and other natural remedies for cancer and other major diseases. Until next time, keep searching for the truth!
