Syed compleres seven cancer free year on June 10, 2017

Today Syed Rizvi completes seven cancer- free years

Dear Friends

Just seven years ago June 10, 2010, I went  through my cancer  surgery  followed by months of chemo; and since then I have been seeing my oncologist who told me the other day that I am cancer free.

I believe a positive spirit  and vegan diet has a lot to do with winning of my fight against this evil  disease.

This is just to give you an update;  but you can see the full story on my fight against  cancer  on this blog.

Syed Rizvi completes his five years cancer-free

Dear friends and well wishers I just wanted to let you  know that today I completed my five cancer-free years. On June 10, 2010, I went through a surgery to remove an advanced stage tumor from my colon.  I am in good health since then. I am under no prescriptions, other than a monthly injection of Vitamin B12 that I am supposed to be taking for the rest of my life.  I do believe that my vegan lifestyle does have a lot to do with my recovery and continued good health.
I am 81, and I go for long walks and do light exercise.  Regularly participate in outdoor animal rights activities.

The following blog has more details about my fight with cancer.

Wishing you all well

Syed Rizvi completes his four cancer-free years today June 10, 2014

Dear friends and well wishers I wanted to let you know that today I completed my four cancer-free years after my colon-cancer-surgery on June 10, 2010.

During the last four years, many of you had often asked me about the state of my health, and my spirit, so I have updated the blog on my health that was initially launched by my friend Caroline soon after I was diagnosed with a stage-three tumor. The blog posted major milestones leading to my complete recovery from the cancer at which time it seemed no longer necessary to continue the blog at so frequent intervals. The last entry was made on February 12, 2012.

I have been routinely seeing my doctors who have been monitoring my blood reports, checking out heart conditions, and also, as a precautionary measure, looking for signs of prostate cancer that has never tested as positive.  Very recently, I went through a set of major tests that included colonoscopy and CT-Scan.  Everything came out clean.

Other than vitamin and iron supplements, I have not been prescribed any medication, e.g., drugs for lowering of cholesterol or controlling of pressure or sugar that is quite common for people at my age.  I turned 80 last December.  I do believe, and doctors agree, that this prescription-free life-style of mine has a lot to do with my vegan diet that is free from any animal product like meat, fish, milk or honey.

Throughout my last four years, I have been in good health, and good spirit; and have been quite active in my profession as well as many animal rights activities http://prime.peta.org/2013/12/one-person-make-difference\  ; and writing OpEd  on animal cause http://www.newageislam.com/ijtihad,-rethinking-islam/hajj----some-afterthoughts/d/9483. And    fully participating in out-door activities that include the long March for the elephants.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oirgyzEJJ1g   and a recent vigil on National Animal Rights Day in the memory of animals killed by  humans for whatever reasons. Related to the vigil,  here  is a collection of about 400 slides where you may find  me on slides  # 9, 10, 106, 111, 147, and 286.   https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=739151459479772&set=a.739151399479778.1073741836.388042877923967&type=1&theater

My encounter with cancer has not brought me down in any fashion.  In fact, it has given me a zest for  life and made me truly experience life in its present moment.

Thank you all for your good wishes
Syed Rizvi
