Cancer and heart disease cured by new discovery
Editors note: DeDe Goldson, a good friend of mine was sick with lung cancer. She has recovered and feels better than she has in years due to an alternative procedure. This is her story. Fred Hughes, a former newspaper publisher, also recovered from heart disease using the remarkable discoveries of Bob Dowling.

A Columbia businesswoman - a lifetime smoker - is well on the road to recovery after having a cancerous tumor in her left lung ablated last year, a one- day out- patient procedure that uses radio frequency waves to destroy cancer cells.

"I feel great," said DeDe Goldson, 63.

While it is almost natural to assume that her cancer was caused by smoking cigarettes, a new technology perfected by a North Carolina bio- scientist and researcher, who grew up in Columbia, proves otherwise.

Harmless thermal imaging, which was once classified military technology, was used to find bi- lateral inflammation in Goldson's mouth - deadly oral pathology on both sides of her mouth that triggered cancer tumors in both lungs.

Goldson and her husband, Clem, are part owners in Spectra True Colour Printing and Spectra Dynamic Marketing, at 414 Rivermont Drive, a stone's throw off I- 126. The company is one of two firms, which are located in different states, where the first edition of a new book is being printed that details the cause and cure for cancer and many degenerative diseases, including cardiovascular disease.

Fred Hughes, 62, a veteran radio broadcaster and newspaper publisher, is the author of Am I Dead? ... or do I just feel like it , a tell- all story about his two heart attacks and his eventual encounter with Dr. Robert Dowling, "who has made the most astounding medical discoveries of the past 100 years."

The story has some of its origins in Columbia, where Dowling grew up. The book, a factual news report as well as a personal testimony, was released this week.

The author's first heart attack occurred in January 2000. Hughes suffered his second heart attack on Saturday afternoon, Dec. 24, 2005, while splitting firewood at his mountaintop homeplace, in western North Carolina.

Fred Hughes, veteran broadcaster and newspaper publisher, lives in the mountains of western N.C.

Doctors prescribed cholesterol- lowering statin drugs, suggested that the pharmaceuticals would be a lifetime regimen, "and everyone I talked to led me to believe my third heart attack would probably be fatal," said Hughes. "I felt like I was dead, and had little hope for the future."

Just days out of the hospital, the former publisher met and interviewed Bob Dowling, who was conducting his private research in Madison County. Hughes was astounded when Dowling challenged the diagnosis of heart doctors.

Before Hughes could write more in- depth stories about Dowling's research, however, he sold the newspaper, which he published for seven years, to Gannett, the giant media company that owns USA Today , The Greenville (SC) News, Asheville (NC) Citizen-Times, and about 97 other publications.

Dr. Robert Dowling is an independent bio- scientist and researcher in N.C.

Hughes interviewed Bob Dowling for the first time Jan. 5, 2006.

"The most electrifying moment of that original interview was when Dowling asked me what doctors blamed as the cause of my heart attack," Hughes related. "I told him, 'They said I had high cholesterol, and it was in my genes.'"

Dowling responded, "No, it's in your mouth, and I'll prove it to you," Hughes said. "It turned out that Dowling was right."

The author says his heart disease has been reversed, and, in his book, he tells how it was accomplished in a matter of weeks without using prescription drugs.

"That's when I first learned about a simple cure for breast cancer," says Hughes. "No radical surgery, no radiation, no chemotherapy. It's virtually 100% effective. And the prevention is equally as straight- forward." The cure is not free, he added, but it is affordable for most women.

According to Hughes, "Perhaps the best news of all is that the cause, cure, and prevention of breast cancer also apply to many, if not all, degenerative diseases, including Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, lupus, arthritis, ALS, MS, and even the unexplainable cause of cancer in little children."

Alan Geoghegan (right), video production coordinator of Medianetwork, LLC, of Columbia, produced a 15- minute documentary on Bob Dowling's early research about four years ago. The narrator of Take Control was Finnbarr Dunphy (l), who also lives in Columbia.

In his book, Hughes tells how Bob Dowling "has made some of the most remarkable discoveries in history," without ever receiving a dime from big business, cancer charities, or the federal government.

Dowling's background is described in Chapter 13. "He doesn't pretend to be a medical doctor, and he doesn't play one on television," said Hughes. He's a doctor of science whose father was an engineer in charge of the physical and mechanical operations at the state hospital in Columbia.

Dowling's research has been attacked by the mainstream medical establishment because his discoveries pose a serious threat to the way medicine is currently practiced in the U.S., added Hughes.

Hughes says new technologies mean that most cancers are curable, and most degenerative diseases are reversible. Such is the case with his own cardiovascular disease, which was reversed naturally, inexpensively, and without surgery or prescription drugs. "Of course, I had to get my mouth fixed," Hughes acknowledged.

DeDe Goldson has enjoyed a similar experience. "I have been healthy my whole life," declared Goldson, who was never hospitalized before being diagnosed with lung cancer. "I had my tonsils out when I was 10 and my wisdom teeth pulled when I was in college."

According to Hughes, only a handful of dentists in the U.S. understand about hidden oral pathology, and the American Dental Association denies it altogether. "Yet, Bob Dowling says you can't get cancer unless you have oral pathology."

Although Goldson may have looked and acted healthy, the long- term cigarette smoker seemed unusually susceptible to catching the common cold. Back- to- back colds around Thanksgiving 2005 prompted her husband, Clem, to urge her to see a doctor. "You need to go to a doctor!" she remembers him saying.

Her doctor diagnosed a sinus problem and prescribed medication. "My husband will have a fit if I walk out of here without a chest x- ray," Goldson insisted. The x- ray revealed "a spot he didn't like," so the doctor had a radiologist examine the film.

Doctors ordered a CAT scan. "More concern over the CAT prompted them to recommend a PET scan," said Goldson, "and all this is happening right around Christmas (2005), which was the worst Christmas of my life, I might add."

The worry and uncertainty continued through the holidays. "It was after the New Year when they finally said they were pretty sure it was cancer," said Goldson. "In fact, a dear personal friend (a radiologist) said if we had a biopsy, he would be surprised if it came back negative."

"Since the only doctor I had was a gynecologist, we had to depend on friends to help us find a surgeon," she related. The doctor explained how the upper lobe of her right lung would be surgically removed. "It was early, it was very small, and he didn't think there'd be any need for chemotherapy. So, we just did it," Goldson said.

On Jan. 16, 2006, Goldson went in for surgery. "I was out of the hospital in six days, praise God," she said. Additional tests showed no sign of cancer anywhere else, although her doctors acknowledged another suspicious spot on her left lung.

Two months after her (right lung) surgery, a follow-up CAT scan again raised concern. "The spot had grown in my left lung," Goldson stated.

Although she was healing well, Goldson didn't believe she could endure a second surgery, even though the doctor encouraged her to do so immediately. "My husband asked if there was any less invasive way to do this," she said. The doctor mentioned that he was aware of something less invasive but didn't like it because the lymph nodes could not be reached.

Goldson and her husband needed to talk. "We'll be in touch," she said, as she and her husband left the doctor's office.

"We walked around the zoo," she recalled, which is barely a city block away from their printing and marketing businesses. The next day they did not go to work. "We sat around the house and talked and prayed as we considered what to do." The Goldsons were already inclined to seek a different treatment path.

She and her husband were aware of Dowling's cancer research because they had seen the video, Take Control , which was produced in Columbia several years earlier and narrated by Columbia resident Finnbarr Dunphy, a close friend of the bio- scientist.

In the opening segment of the 15- minute program, Dunphy appears on-camera: "Cancer is one of the most feared words in any language. Few people need to be reminded of the virtual life of its own the disease has taken on in recent years despite trillions of research dollars and decades of investigative study."

In 2006, Dowling was claiming to have discovered the cause and cure for breast cancer and other cancers, as well as many degenerative diseases. Yet, because of his research discoveries, he had been ostracized in Columbia by the medical establishment. About six years earlier his downtown offices were raided by heavily armed S.C. law enforcement officers, acting at the behest of the state's medical board.

According to Dowling, the agents removed computers and damaged equipment, but they failed to find a remote server that protected his research data. Dowling was never charged with any wrongdoing. "It was just intimidation tactics," he said, "aimed at stopping his research and preventing the world from learning about his discoveries."

By the time Dowling was recognized on Feb. 16, 2005, when the S.C. House of Representatives adopted a resolution honoring several of the state's leaders in architecture and science, of Irish ancestry, his research had been completely relocated to the mountains of North Carolina.

Was there an alternative to radical surgery, chemotherapy and radiation? DeDe and Clem Goldson asked. They were determined to find out.

Accompanied by his sister, they drove to the North Carolina Institute of Technology. "All three of us had prayed about this," she said. "We really felt like that was something that we were supposed to do."

At the Institute, Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging, using a protocol developed by Dr. Dowling, revealed serious inflammation on both sides of the Goldson's mouth. A Tennessee dentist, who is a pioneer in developing procedures to remove hidden oral pathology, confirmed that Goldson had three cavitations in her jawbone, caused by the improper extraction of her wisdom teeth more than four decades earlier.

The neurotoxins - deadly by- products of bacteria in the mouth - had triggered the cancer tumor in her right lung, as well as the tumor in her left lung. Being a persistent smoker had damaged her lungs and weakened her immune system, according to Dr. Dowling, but smoking was not the direct cause of her cancer. The trigger was oral pathology.

The first ablation procedure was scheduled for early April 2006 at an Ohio hospital known for its cutting- edge technology. "There were absolutely no problems," Goldson noted. "I was in and out the same day."

The worst part of any ablation procedure - breast, lung, liver, or pancreatic cancer, for examples may well be the anxiety of not knowing exactly what to expect. In Goldson's case, relief came quickly.

"To be in a hospital, that was the most pleasant experience I could have imagined," she related. "All the people were just absolutely amazing. Care was incredible, and everybody paid attention to what they were doing."

Goldson's experience wasn't totally without discomfort. The brief procedure momentarily changed her sleeping habits. That night, she slept on her side because her doctor recommended that she not sleep on her back. The next day she was fresh and relaxed, and returned to Columbia.

Her pleasant experience was tempered, however, when a follow- up CAT scan revealed a problem. The radiologist who handled the ablation in the left lung observed "that the spot he had gone after had grown." This necessitated a second ablation procedure, something that rarely happens.

The Tennessee dentist had already corrected the cavitations by the time Goldson returned to Ohio for the second ablation, a nearly painless procedure that utilizes radio frequency waves to kill a cancer tumor in 15 minutes without surgery, radiation, or chemo. It's considered an out- patient procedure.

It took place in September 2006. "We left there. We were very happy. We came home," said Goldson.

The cavitations, where bacteria had eaten into the jawbone, weren't the only oral pathology found in Goldson's mouth. She had a crown that looked okay on the surface but actually was home to more deadly bacteria. In addition to decay under the crown, her Tennessee dentist found a silver amalgam filling, the largest component of which is mercury.

Goldson is in the process of having the mercury fillings removed from her mouth. Mercury can cause all sorts of health issues, but it's not the trigger for cancer, according to Dowling's research.

For most of his working life, the author of the new book maintained a dual career path. Hughes, who has an extensive background in radio news and broadcast engineering, added a newspaper career in 1969.

Although he ended up devoting more of his time to the newspaper business in the years that followed, Hughes continued to do "voice" for radio commercials and video productions professionally, and he traveled extensively in the 1980s and '90s as an operations and management consultant to the small- market newspaper industry.

He's in the process of reading his book in a recording studio. It will be offered as a downloadable audio version on the website, CancerCured.org.

"Yes, there's intense opposition to these discoveries from some quarters," Hughes acknowledged. "After all, somebody is making tons of money off of sickness." In the book, Hughes is critical of mainstream media, pharmaceutical companies, medical and dental associations, and the federal government including the FDA, and even cancer foundations and charities.

"They don't want a cure for cancer," said Hughes. "There's no profit when people are not sick." The book also chronicles Dowling's discoveries that lead to wellness - not getting sick.

"It's not the bacteria in the mouth but rather the deadly waste by- products produced by the bacteria - neurotoxins - that are the trigger for breast cancer and many degenerative diseases," Hughes explained.

"The neurotoxins never cross the body's mid-line," he said. "For example, if a woman has cancer in her right breast, she has oral pathology on the right side of her mouth. Left lung cancer, oral pathology on the left side of the mouth. Parkinson's is right- side oral pathology. Thousands of cases, no exceptions."

In DeDe Goldson's case, it was right- side oral pathology that triggered the cancer tumor in her right lung, and it was left- side oral pathology that triggered the cancer tumor in her left lung.

Early research indicates that muscular dystrophy is also triggered by oral pathology. In one study, which is described in the book, the disease's progress in an 11- year- old boy was stopped dead in its tracks by the removal of two infected baby teeth.

"It sounds like nonsense, but cardiovascular disease is triggered by left-side oral pathology, not high cholesterol," said Hughes. "That's what happened to me, although heart doctors blamed it on high cholesterol and my genes. The real culprit was an infection in my jawbone on the left side of my mouth that I did not know was there, which inflamed my arteries and triggered deadly blood clots."

"I still have what medical doctors claim is high cholesterol," stated Hughes, "but my blood is clean as a whistle - no blood clots, no excess fibrinogen."

A year after his second heart attack, Hughes said, "I feel and function like a teen-ager. Of course, I had to get my teeth fixed. Fortunately, I was introduced to the Tennessee dentist who corrected DeDe's oral pathology."

The discovery about cardiovascular disease came after the discovery of the cause and cure for breast cancer. A 34- year- old North Carolina mother and housewife was the first woman whose breast cancer was found during infrared thermal imaging screening for oral pathology, three months after a mammogram failed to find it.

She became the Poster Girl for Dowling's research (www.CancerCured.org), after her breast cancer was cured with the simple ablation procedure. Bob Dowling also developed the safe, non-invasive, radiation- free, thermal imaging scanning protocol that can find breast cancer up to 10 years earlier than a mammogram.

"All of us have cancer cells in our body, and we all have tumor suppressant genes," Hughes explained. "Neurotoxic waste by- products from hidden bacteria in the mouth inhibit these tumor suppressant genes. In other words, the toxins keep the genes from doing their job. That's the trigger for cancer. That's the genetic connection to cancer."

"I didn't do anything special to deserve this opportunity, reporting on Bob Dowling's cutting- edge research," Hughes stated. "Until now, I never had an interest in the field of medicine. I am the most unlikely person in America to be writing a book about medical discoveries."

The first edition of the 350- page book includes 24 pages of full- color photographs and digital thermal images that graphically tell the story of hidden oral pathology.

This is the cover of the new book by veteran radio broadcaster and newspaper publisher Fred Hughes.
