32079941H12787807.JPGGolfer Phil Mickelson's wife, Amy, has been diagnosed with breast cancer, and he will suspend his PGA Tour schedule, according to a statement on Mickelson's Web site.

She is expected to begin treatment with "major surgery" in the next two weeks.

Mickelson was schedules to play in this week's EDS Byron Nelson Classic and defend his championship next week in the Crowne Plaza Invitational.

The Phil and Amy Mickelson Foundation was established in 2004, focusing on youth and family issues. The couple testified before Congress last year, and asked for more money to be spent in schools on math and science.

The couple was married in 1996. They have three children ages 9, 7 and 6.

Amy and Phil
I don't know what to say. IF ONLY HUGS COULD BE PUT INTO WORDS.

I have just celebrated my ten year cancer free anniversary. I'm doing terrific, and you will too.

Keep a good and positive attitude.

A golf fan,

I am going through the same thing now. My family, doctors and I are very optimistic. Get the best medical care out there, this kind of cancer is curable. I'm sure she will be fine.

I will keep Amy in my prayers as she undertakes cancer treatments I will also pray that Phil and the girls will be given the strength and courage to support Amy.

May God Bless you all.

Dear Amy,

I have a wonderful little daily book to send to you to read. It is a beautiful spiritual daily word.
Where can I send it too?
God is a beautiful God and I know with all my heart he will heal you.
Last week I learned I had to have a knee replacement and my heart was crushed with this news. My Sunday School came and prayed for me and the fear has somewhat left me.
I will pray for you daily and pray that this is only the beginning of a new life for you.
I want to thank Phil for taking time off the golf course and standing firmly by your side.
My respect for him only makes him be an icon on the golf course.
I hope to hear from you and where I can send the book..
Please respond back with an address to npurcell@mindspring.com

I was driving to work yesterday when on the radio the DJ was talking about the Open and mentioned Phil has announced 3 weeks ago Amy has been diagnosed with breast cancer. I’m not a person that would normally write to anyone but with this news I felt compelled to send this message. At 47 I was diagnosed with this dreaded disease so I know how these words can be so devastating. I just want to say, that was almost six years ago. What got me through those tough times was knowing this disease can be cured and the support and prayers from all my friends and family. I truly think a positive attitude and mind set got me though the tough spots and the love and devotion from my husband. I went to work everyday so I could be around the support of my co-workers and put my faith into my Doctors. My prayers go to you, and your family and wish you a quick recovery. You too will look back in years and know what a big hurtle you’ve overcame. I will keep you in my prayers.

Dear Amy and Phil,
In November of 1984 I was diag. with Cervical Ca. and went through the recommended surgery. I was 34 years old. 4 months later, I noticed a lump in my left breast. I checked it every 2 weeks to see if it would go away and it did not. My general surgeon did the lumpectomy and sent it to path. and they did the frozen section and it came back positive. The lump was 2 1/2 cent.in size. I was a scrub nurse at the the time. Of all the Hospitals as an option, Baylor,Mayo etc. The Oncologist I chose to go to is Ralph Reymond M.D. At St.Frances Hospital in Topeka,Kansas. He had interned at Johns Hopkins Hospital specializing in Cancer Treatment and studied under the "father of interstitial Radiotherapy" in Paris France, Dr Reymond is Swedish. I did not have Chemotheapy because I had already had ca. once and it could be a 2 edge sward. I had 28 colbalt treatments and 10 Linear treatments to the tumor bed. I didn't have a mastectomy because if my cancer ever returned, there's a chance it would be in the chest wall and the stats were equal on the survival rate between a lumpectomy with radiotheapy or a mastectomy.
That was 24 years ago and I have been Cancer free since. I chose to help give pep talks to other woman diag. with breast Ca.afterwards and every time I walked out their front door, I realized I had given myself a pep talk as well. Say your prayers every night and stay positive.
You'll be fine!

Dear Amy,

My wife had a lump on her left breast and feared that it was a breast cancer. She found on the internet that Baking Soda will and can heal breast cancer. She immediately took it orally by mixing it with water and after 2 weeks or so the lump had gone.

HI PHIL AND AMY,
MY NAME IS BILL "CHICK"CHILTON I'M 74 AND A FATHER OF TWO (2) DAUGHTERS AND A SON AND
SEVEN (7) GRANDKIDS. I"M ONE OF YOUR BEST FANS AND I LOVE GOLF. I WORK AT A GOLF COURSE , BUILD GOLF CLUBS, COLLECT GOLFBALLS AND GOLF HATS,AND PLAY GOLF 3 TO 4
TIMES A WEEK. ITS GOD, FAMILY AND GOLF, BUT GOLF ISN'T WHY I'M WRITING THIS NOTE TO YOU. MY OLDEST DAUGHTER (53) COLLEEN HAS BEEN THRU THIS CANCER THING THREE (3) TIMES. THE FIRST TIME APPROX. 7 YEARS AGO, WAS BREAST CANCER. SHE HAD A LUMPECTOMY, FIRST STAGE CANCER, AND SHE'S DOING FINE WITH THAT. THE SECOND TIME WAS THYROID CANCER AND SHE HAD IT REMOVED AND TREATED WITH RADIATION. NEXT CAME ALONG UTERINE CANCER, (ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO) AND SHE HAD A COMPLETE HYSTERECTOMY FOLLOWED AGAIN BY RADIATION TREATMENT. THEY SAY SHE IS CLEAR OF CANCER AND DOING WELL, BUT THE HARDEST PART IS THE MENTAL ACCEPTANCE OF THE SITUATION. HOWEVER WITH FAMILY PRAYERS AND SUPPORT SHE IS DOING WELL. NOONE KNOWS WHAT THE FUTURE WILL BRING HER, AND WE PRAY NO MORE CANCER. BUT THIS IS AN EXAMPLE FOR YOUR WIFE TO KNOW THAT THESE THINGS CAN BE OVERCOME AND IF THERE IS ANY NEED FOR CONVERSATION AT ANY TIME, WITH OUR DAUGHTER, SHE WOULD BE HAPPY TO OFFER SUPPORT TO HER. THERE IS ALWAYS STRENGTH IN NUMBERS.

ALSO I JUST HAD PROSTATE CANCER TWO YEARS AGO AND HAD SEEDING DONE, AND I AM DOING FINE. SO THERE IS ALWAYS HOPE. CANCER TREATMENT HAS COME A LONG WAY.

IN CLOSING I WOULD LIKE TO SAY YOUR GREAT GOLF CAREER IS ONLY EXCEEDED BY YOU AS A PERSON. SO OUR PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU, AMY AND YOUR FAMILY FOR CONTINUED GOOD HEALTH AND HAPPINESS. PEACE BE WITH YOU ALL. GOD BLESS

BILL CHILTON

As a 4 year survivor of breast cancer, I know exactly what you are feeling. The diagnosis is devastating. The hardest part for me was telling my family. My husband, children, family and friends were so supportive. Keep a positive attitude and most of all keep the faith. It will be a difficult few months but after all the treatments you will feel great. I appreciate each day and live each day to the fullest. I look forward to seeing you and the children greeting Phil when he wins his next tournament. I will keep you all in my prayers.

This comment is for Teieka Kaoma who claims his wife was "cured" of breast cancer by ingesting baking soda. I don't know what your motive is but spreading a total insensitive lie like this is an insult to those who have been devastated by a breast cancer diagnosis. You should be ashamed of yourself. The intelligent people who have viewed your comment on this website will most certainly ignore your medical "advice".

As for Amy, my thoughts and prayers are with her. I am a 2-1/2 year survivor of this disease. The main things that got me through diagnosis and treatment (and what continues to help me through each day since)are the love and support of my family and a strong faith in God.

LASE MED INC moved from Little Rock to Oklahoma because the University in Arkansas found DR. Carpenters L.E.I.S.H to be a waste of the Universities time. Also there are malpractice lawsuits against LASE MED INC from the Little Rock Office. Another interesting note is that DR. Carpenter is correct about NASA’s research on fighting cancer with laser, but NASA didn't test LASE MED INC L.E.I.S.H laser in their testing. L.I.E.S.H. from LASEMEDINC is not FDA approved. Read more about LASEMEDINC at http:www.lasemedlies.com

Just so you know, there are Malpractice suits against Antonella Carpenter, stay away from her. Her work is a scam and people are dead because of that woman There will more malpractice against her soon.

There are only two lawsuits, and they are totally bogus! This treatment works, and there are several documented cases, but just like any new treatment (I say "new" loosely; it was invented over 20 years ago), it takes several years for it to be recognized by the establishment, though similar treatments are already being offered in Europe. Pastuer & Curie were both ridculed by their peers, and their discoveries were not widely used until long after their deaths. Why? Ignorance & greed!

Sally Leff,
Please contact me.
Michael Henderson can you please contact me regarding your friend Gail?

I am helping an expatient of Dr. Carpenter with a lawsuit. The best attorneys in Little Rock are handling the case.
My friend is dying from the treatment at Lase Med!!

Plese contact me if you or a loved one was harmed by Dr. Carpenter!
Thank you,

WENDY S:
The lawsuits are not bogus in fact the trail is set for later this year. I am helping the lawyers along with Therese find lots of Dr. Carpenters victims and loved ones that know that Dr. Carpenter is only hurting people, practicing medicine without a license and negligence. My friend who went to her clinic in 2008 was told she was cancer free not long after the sessions. 8 months later she had a terrible alien growing out of her breast. It was the breast cancer, but Dr. Carpenter kept telling her it was normal and ugly but it was too big for the body to absorb. Guess what it had gone from state 1 to stage 3 after the treatment from LASE MED. it most likely spread it! Now she is has it all throughout her body in her lungs, uterus, most recently her brain and bone marrow. The medical world has said there is nothing we can do.
Most of us ( former patients and friends) believe in alternative medicine but LASE MED / light therapy does not work.
BEWARE Plese contact me if you or a love one was hurt by LASE MED!
Thank you,

I am thankful that people are reading this.
I just received another call from an expatient tonight.

She told me that Dr. Carpenter( not even a medical doctor) is making more money than most surgeons. She was charged $1500 for a 6 month follow up visit that lasted only 20 minutes! This is normal for her to do. She uses a weird form of intimidation, and manipulation/ control with her patients. All the ex-patients I have heard from have said almost the same things about how unprofessional, rude and mean she is. It is so sad to hear that people want to believe her so badly that they are still going to her despite the warnings, despite the public lawsuit. Please google it yourself and contact the lawyers who are taking the case probono if you don't believe me.

But please don't put your self or loved one into the grips of this predator!

thank you ,
Michelle Wolven

Antonella Carpenter has already been run out of Arkansas for medical malpractice, and has suits currently filed against her. This woman preys on the fear of cancer victims, desperate for hope and healing.

Antonella Carpenter is NOT a licensed medical practitioner. In fact, she holds no doctorate in any field of study. I want to say this again, because it bears repeating. ANTONELLA CARPENTER is NOT A DOCTOR.

Antonella Carpenter instructs her clients to avoid medical doctors and proven medical treatment for cancer. It is crucial that Amy Mickelson AVOID ANTONELLA CARPENTER. A woman in Powder Springs GA, Cyndi Babecka, recently passed away from cancer after seeing Antonella Carpenter in hopes of finding a cure. The information above is based on her testimony and that of her husband. After her treatment, the cancer had spread so badly, that it was visible through her skin. She died mere months after Antonella Carpenter had told her that the cancer was gone, and stated that the growth visible in her skin were just dead cancer cells. Cyndi Babecka could have had a chance at living, and her 7 children and husband might not be without her now.

I hope Amy finds a good MEDICAL treatment for her cancer and does not suffer the fate that Cyndi Babecka and so many others have.

Michelle Wolven is a known anti-abortionist, who revels in the demise of abortion doctors, so don't be fooled by her most recent paying job of trying to slander Lase Med Inc. Everything that comes out of her mouth is a lie.

What Michelle has posted is not a fabrication. It is true that her friend went to Ms. Carpenter and it is also true that while under her "care" the tumors grew uncontrollably. It is also true that Ms. Carpenter told her friend not to seek conventional medical advice.


Ms Wolven is not only being paid by the ONE attorney spearheading the legal malarchy, of which I DO know many pertinent details, but legally am not allowed to discuss... but she is also a part of the nutriceutical pyramid scheme. THE two biggest attackers of Lase Med, and ALL PDT practitioners for that matter, are (A) the Big Pharma mainstream medical establishment, and (B) the complimentary or "alternative" medicine community, those who profit from the sale of nutritional supplements and herbal remedies falsely marketed to kill cancer, aids, and any number of other tragic diseases. Ms Wolven sells nutriceuticals through a multi-level marketing scam, and I wouldn't be a bit surprised if we discover that she pushed these scam-marketed "complimentary medicines" upon her unfortunate friend before, during, or after her experience at Lase Med. Many of these products are scientifically proven to be harmful when abused.

You wouldn't know the TRUTH if it hit you in the head. Michelle Wolven is being paid (or promised future payment) for trying to find our patients and turning them against us, in the hopes that they can win the bogus lawsuits. The TRUTH is that this treatment works, but nobody can control the idiotic things people do after treatment, despite being warned what to expect.

Here is a link to the first of three videos of one patient's testimonials on youtube. There are two more on the same channel, and more to come!

Since the links were removed to the testimonials I mentioned above, just go to Lase Med Inc's website to find them, or go to the "lasemedinc" channel on youtube.

Everything Wendy Simmons says about Michelle Wolven is true.

Her history of anti-abortion fanaticism:

Anything Michelle Wolven is involved in is pretty much guaranteed to be bogus.

I dont blame anyone for my wifes cancer but I do blame LASEMEDINC for wasting my wifes time battling cancer after having treatment at LASEMEDINC. LASEMEDINC lied to me and they will lie to you. I believe their claim for shrinking tumors is possible but LASEMEDINC can't kill the cancer. I'm telling you from mine and my wifes experience that she was never cancer free. The tumor did shrink but a sore grow on the out side where the tumor was and it kept growing. The sore on the outside was cancer. A cancerous tumor is good cells surrounding the cancer in order to protect you naturally but if you disrupt the good cells of the tumor and you really can't kill cancer your not cancer free. If you get L.I.E.S.H. treament for a cancerous tumor at LASEMEDINC it will be your demise. Read about my experience at http://www.lasemedinc.net

And speaking of Legal Malpractice and Malfeasance... for all of you people so hell-bent on telling the world about these bogus lawsuits... "Marks et al vs LMI" has been DROPPED, due to all of the plaintiff's lying premises. The other case is connected to this one, and once examined by higher authority it will go nowhere as well, due to all the LIES in it, without which it could not have been filed in the first place. The whole thing is based on lies.
- Mr. Criscuolo (Bob, lasemedinc.net),
- Ms. Wolven (Michelle, Sanjay, "shutdownlasemedinc","lostmyfriend"),
- Ms. Treccia (Becky, Peanut, Zombiewitch, Luvstar, Gaping Headwound Girl), and
- Mr. Bezin (Alhimik)... these four are the official anti LMI "blog defamation team" of politically connected lawyer (LIAR) Will Bond.
Now LMI is also under a virus attack: several fake webpages carrying malware are now topping the search engines for "Antonella+Carpenter," and we have little doubt as to who is behind it all.
