Doc told me I "proabably" had teticular cancer in 1997 (I was 19) Of course we needed a biopsy. I said "screw that" in light of the fact that I had no children and had already gone through 2 horrible surgeries as a small child to fix damage done to them by my smoking/drinking/drug using while pregnant mom. I ran to whatever I could find that was NOT allopathic. Almost 10 years, no pain, no more swelling, and 4 healthy children later, here I am. I love my doctor as a man, but that's what they've been taought to do. It's their training, livelyhood (sp), and culture. Hope your dad can wake up before it's too late.
