We are fundamentally electromagnetic beings per the final common pathways in all metabolic processes.
Just diagnosed and branded as stage 4. Surgical removal of a colon tumor which had also attached to my bladder and liver. They want me on Chemo but my thinking it to not destroy but to strengthen my immune system to fight it.
