I have had the privileged of speaking along side of her numerous times and therefore have had the opportunity to seek her advice on OC matters.
I need to add that Brian, whom I respect as much if not more than any of my cancer contacts, does not agree with this "theory" so as always consult your own knowledgeable expert before listening to me.
