Short Story:  This is a synopsis of my story.  If you are interested please read the full version directly following this.  Over 22 years ago diagnosed with malignant melanoma.  Six months later told I had stage 4 breast cancer that had metastasized.  Doctors at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, TX told me with aggressive chemotherapy, surgery, followed by more chemo, then radiation, then more chemo (treatment to last over 2 years); I has only a 5% chance of survival.
     With the help of my daughter, physicians, herbalists, pharmacists and God, I overcame my fears and became proactive in my healthcare.  With the discovery of powerful herbs and the perfect combination of antioxidants, I knew I was doing something to promote my health and recovery.
     Not only did I beat my cancer, I remain cancer free and healthy today.  I have since founded a charitable organization, the Brabec Foundation, which encourages cancer prevention and helps other charities with fundraising.  My daughter and I also run a very unique health company.

   What I am about to tell you may sound too good to be true, but after you’ve read my story, you’ll believe my miracle.  You see, according to the medical doctors, I should have been dead years ago.
     Let’s turn the clock back to 1982.  I had a large mole removed from my thigh and was told it was a malignant melanoma – cancer.  “O.K.”, I said to myself, “We’ll just cut out some leg, sew it up and deal with an eight inch scar down the front of my thigh.”  Having been a model and living in Florida, not wearing shorts, was my biggest concern.  Little did I know just how insignificant that scar would be. 
     Six months later I began experiencing pain in my breast.  To be honest, breast cancer did not even enter my mind.  Cancer was not supposed to hurt and I did not feel a lump.  Besides, I had had my cancer…paid my dues and had the scar to prove it.
     I was enjoying life too much to have it interrupted by illness.  I was happily married with two children, had wonderful friends and was financially quite well off.  You know, the ‘Cinderella Story’: An idyllic life.
     I will never forget, how, with a matter-of-fact and monotone voice, my doctor at MD Anderson Cancer Institute in Houston, Texas, told me that I had invasive stage four breast cancer with a large tumor in my breast and metastasis to my lymph nodes.  At that time, I didn’t even know what ‘stage four’ meant.
     The next few days were a complete blur.  I started chemotherapy immediately.  I moved and reacted like a robot, from blood-work to x-ray and so on.  I had a subclavian catheter inserted for my chemo and did what the doctors and nurses told me.  I was in shock and hadn’t even begun to comprehend my condition or think about what lie ahead.
     I guess my husband called my daughter and filled her in on my situation, because the next thing I knew, my husband flew home to Florida and my daughter postponed entrance to medical school,  and joined me in Houston, where she remained throughout my ordeal.
     After a few weeks things began to take focus.  Slowly but surely the words of my doctors began to sink in; ‘a 5% chance of survival’.  Wait, I wasn’t ready to die!  I had to fight and find a way to survive.  With the support of my daughter and my physicians we began to organize a path toward my recovery.
     We listened to the experts and asked a lot of questions.  Endless hours of research on my disease eventually paid off.  We knew we hit the jackpot when we discovered information about an herb called Echinacea.  It had been used by Native American Indians to cure infections. Modern research had confirmed its antibacterial properties and showed its immune boosting potential.  In addition reliable scientific evidence supporting the importance of anti-oxidants and their role in protecting healthy cells from free radical damage was starting to make medical journal headlines.
     With the input from some very bright people (herbalists, pharmacists, physicians, etc) we combined a variety of vitamins and herbs into a formula we affectionately called ‘Mother’s Magic Pills’.   It wasn’t until years later that I really began to believe in that magic.
     Sadly I watched as many of my friends at MD Anderson passed away.  Often times it was not from their cancer, but from a viral or bacterial infection they could not beat because their immune systems were so depleted from their chemotherapy.  I knew I had to stay healthy…the common cold could literally kill me! 
     I have always had a deep faith in God, but being faced with such a daunting challenge, I prayed…and I prayed a lot!  I found myself talking to God on a regular basis.  During my initial three months of chemo and ‘magic’ pills, I could actually feel my tumor shrinking.  It was then that I knew I was not going to die and God surely had his hand on my shoulder.
     My mastectomy was performed after those three months of initial treatment and when the pathology report came back it stated that my 11cm tumor was gone!  What had done this?  Was is the chemo., my positive attitude, my ‘magic pills’ or Divine Intervention? 
     I can tell you that to this day I continue to practice my deep faith, strive to maintain a positive attitude and take my vitamins (One Life’s Advanced Anti-Oxidant in a base of Echinacea and Garlic).  I also continue to be healthy and illness-free.
     Back in 1993 my life took another unexpected turn.  As with most survivors, I had questioned God everyday about why I had survived.  After several ‘messages’ and one clear dream, I realized I must share my blessing with others.  I thought, “Would my pills work for others?  There was only one way to find out.  I was very fortunate, my financial security allowed me to follow that dream.
     I arranged to manufacture my pills and created a charitable foundation, ‘The Brabec Foundation’ through which I give these away free.  I started this program in 1993 and continue it today.  To date I have given away hundreds of thousands of bottles FREE.
