Apala: There is a Radiosurgery; which really isn't a surgery as we think of,there's
no cutting, no blood and they do do it on the liver. Below I have included another
surgery that is used with a lazer light that sounds like a possibility for your
mother. I regret that I cannot give you any information in regards to Noni Juice,
nor can we endorse any one product. I believe if you use your browser and type in
alternative medicines you will be able to get the information you need. We have
found that often traditional and non traditional work well togeather; but not to
give up the traditional therapy. Also, anything your mother uses should be cleared
by her doctor.
