UTERUS & WOMB CANCER
& HAEMORRHAGING
Patient Nellie McVittie
Doctor Dr Dale
Diagnosis Haemorrhaging with Cancer of Uterus & Womb .
Feb 1977
An extract from
HOMEMAKER MAGAZINE 1977
Nellie McVittie is still alive to tell her story today(1977).
Wasted to a mere 86 pounds, she was carried, haemorrhaging, into the clinic one day in 1935.
Her doctor in Sudbury, Dr Dale, believed that she had cancer of the uterus and neck of the womb.
The neck of the womb had been cauterised, then subjected to radium treatment (before she received Caisse's herbal treatment).
Later at the cancer commission hearings in 1939, Mrs McVittie was able to appear in person and tell her story.
"Miss Caisse's treatments certainly put me on my feet. I could barely get around at all when I went to her. I weigh about 107 pounds now", she said in part of her testimony.
Letter to Rene Caisse form Nellie McVittie
Feb 1977
René M Caisse
Bracebridge,
Ontario, Canada.
Internationally known as Canada's Cancer Nurse.
To whom it may concern,
This is a statement to say I had cancer. The doctors treated me for a good while and finally told me the only thing left to do was to take radium treatments. Then I heard about the work that René Caisse was doing and how many cancer patients she was helping, so I went to her. I think that was in the spring of 1936 or 1937.
I stayed in Bracebridge, taking regular treatments for about two months. I got relief almost immediately after starting treatment, and have had no more recurrence of my old trouble since then.
