Essiac: Nature's Cure for Cancer
Note: While this article states that Essiac has been in use since 1922 - in actuality it has been in use for many hundreds of years by the Native community of this country. - Two Feathers An Interview with Dr Gary Glum by Elisabeth Robinson. This is the story of a woman named Rene Caisse . For more than 50 years until her death in 1978 at the age of 90, she treated thousands of cancer patients, most of them written off by doctors as terminally ill, with her own secret formula. She called it Essiac - Caisse spelt backwards - and she brewed the tea herself, alone in her kitchen. Her patients swore by her. Men and women who believed she cured them of cancer, told their friends and families, wrote letters to politicians, swore affidavits, testified before the Canadian Parliament and pleaded with Rene to supply them with more Essiac . Husbands and wives of patients who died, wrote Rene letters thanking her profoundly for making life easier - free of pain- and longer for their loved

By Defense Counsel
The thunder rolled, across the plains
Filled with anger, followed by rain
A coming truth, would soon be seen
Our native world, became just a dream.
They pushed us west, without a care
Took our world, gave us white man's prayer
Killed our game, raped our land
Tried to break our spirit, with their hand.
In the name of greed, with no recourse
Silent death, from a devil's seed
Wanted our gold, the fertile soil
Abused our women, left the rest to spoil.
Then came disease, backed by decrees
Dying natives, down on knees
The setting sun, had just begun
While the first peoples world, came undone.
Yet we wondered why
Did we anger Father Sky
Was it something we did not do
With the tears in our eyes
We wiped away the lies
Just trying to get through...
But the bottom line is the whole thing
Left us nothing we could do.....
When they waded in to the shore
Sea was calm, yet the thunder roared
Under dusk and cover
It was a one way war.
The first to fall had no name
A victim of the evil game
Dragged down under
Without a bit of shame....
Yet we wondered why
Had we angered Father Sky
Was it something we did not do
With the tears in our eyes
We wiped away the lies
Tried to get through........
But the bottom line is the whole thing
Left us nothing we could do.....
Somehow we're still fighting to
Make you listen to the truth.....
