When the FDA and the Texas Medical Board went after Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski in 1996, Sgt. Rick Schiff, an 11 year veteran of the Tampa Police Dept. testified before a US Congressional hearing on Feb. 29, 1996 about losing one twin daughter to a highly malignant brain tumor that traveled throughout her brain and spine.

Doctors said they had two options: take her home and let her die, or use massive doses of chemo and radiation simultaneously. In either event she was going to die—and very quickly. The Schiffs agreed to the therapy. Six months later, she was still alive—and still dying of cancer. Schiff and his wife began digging for alternatives. They found Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski.

Eighteen months later, after being treated by Dr. Burzynski, she was still alive—and she was cancer free. A new tumor showed up. Against the advise of their local oncologist who insisted Burzynski's treatment failed, they put her back on Burzynski's treatment. In 9 weeks, the tumor was completely gone. Schiff's daughter died in July, 1995 of neurological necrosis.

Her brain simply fell apart from the prolonged use of radiation. The autopsy showed she was completely cancer-free. Out of 52 case of that disease—ever, no one died cancer-free, just Chrissie Schiff. Schiff told Congress that she didn't die of a terminal illness. She died, he said "...of my inability to care for her properly. She died from bad advise. She died because there is a government institution that disseminates false information and is not looking out for the best interests of the people."

Those who have crossed horns with the FDA over the years were quick to realize that particular federal agency serves as a corrupt enforcer of both Big Pharma and the American Medical Association. Both—Big Pharma and the AMA—use campaign contributions to control politicians into writing regulations that favor the agenda of Big Pharma, and stifle medical doctor and medical research scientists who are too innovative to make sure their discoveries don't harm the practice of treating disease by eradicating the diseases from which the medical community earns its livelihood. The way Big Pharma and the AMA talk about cancer research you'd almost think they are serious about eradicating cancer. They are serious about finding new, more effective treatments for cancer, and for prolonging the life of cancer patients, but regardless of the medical rhetoric, finding a real cure for cancer is not on the Christmas wish of the AMA since treating cancer is big business. Curing cancer—particularly as quickly and effectively as Burzynski's cancer gene therapy does—would drain a large chunk of the massive amount of revenue received by cancer treatment centers for chemotherapy and radiation treatment.

Big Pharma, on the other hand, is working hard to find a pharmaceutical "cure" for cancer, and have several drugs now which are used to treat specific types of cancers. Today Big Pharma uses Zolinza (to treat T-cell lymphoma), Xeloda (to treat metastatic breast cancer and for colon cancer patients whose colon has already been removed), and Avastin (used to treat kidney cancer, brain cancer and lung cancer—and metastatic colon cancer but only when used with intravenous chemotherapy).

However, Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski, an internationally known cancer research physician was one of the early, and most successful, pioneers of cancer gene research. Burzynski is credited with the discovery of the molecular switch that allows him to turn off cancer cells without destroying normal cells. Unlike Big Pharma, however, Dr. Burzynski discovered that killing cancer is not a "one size fits all" treatment. For example, the cancer drugs noted above were created by Big Pharma to treat very specific types of cancer, suggesting the FDA believes that these drugs will not work on other types of cancer, so under FDA protocol, they are used only to treat the types of cancers for which the FDA has defined them to be prescribed.

Dr. Julian Whitaker, MD, of the Whitaker Wellness Institute has examined Burzynski's case studies and the findings of the National Cancer institute with respect to those case histories. He is on the record as saying: "It was obvious to me that Dr. Burzynski had made the most important discovery in cancer treatment—ever! It's what we have been looking for."

Burzynski is a native of Poland. He attended Lublin Medical University where he graduated first in his class on Feb. 18, 1967—at 24 years of age. He received his Ph.D in biochemistry the following year. While working towards his biochemistry Ph.D, Burzynski made a profound discovery—a string of peptides in human blood and urine that had never been discovered in biomedical research. As he continued his research, Dr. Burzynski also discovered that people with cancer lacked these peptides in both their blood and urine, while those who are cancer-free have an abundance of them. Whitaker viewed that discovery as being similar to waking up one morning and discovering a whole bunch of islands just off the coast of Miami, Florida. His discovery has led to a branch of medicine in what is now known as personalized cancer gene therapy.
