Not that I ever saw & I was always baffled by it. Maybe it’s a fight she couldn’t take on?Did she ever end up saying anything publically about the clinic?
Do they make them sign something or threaten their patients?

Everything you’ve said is spot on!I thought this review of Hope 4 Cancer was pretty interesting… Kate has mentioned she has been classified as “no evidence of disease” NED a few times after scans there.
I think she does have cancer. I think she picks and chooses what information she shares so it’s hard to pin down. If you compiled all the information she has shared over the past few years it would be comprehensive in saying she sought and received medical treatment for cancer. She said she has stage 4 non small cell lung cancer. I think the immunotherapy drug she has said she has taken is working to prolong her life. I think the alternative treatments are not doing anything. It’s called Hope 4 Cancer for a reason, it’s not a cure.
Does anyone remember when she said she got an infection from doing her own IVs and ports? Running circumin through them?
I feel very sorry for her. No one wants to question cancer. It’s such a sad story and she represents a lot of hope for people… it’s hard though when we have seen the rise of scammers and grifters too. I sincerely hope the best for her and her daughter.
YES, this!Not that she has to give away the money that was raised for her, but a few times she's said she would give any extra away so someone else could get treatment. There never seems to be any money leftover.
I honestly think she's lied and is still lying for financial gain. Maybe she has/ had a type of cancer but I now don't believe it's the type/s or the severity that she describes. I believed her because even though Bell and Amanda taught me to question these things, I can't fathom how someone could actually do it. I donated to Kate and wished her well along the way, looking at it all now I believe I was conned along with thousands of others. I see it differently now, although I am 100% science and western medicine all the way and despise the anti vax non logic, I utterly despised and questioned the Mexican 'specialist' bullshit she was selling I fell for her sob story. I 100% guarantee all of you she has been exposed by Pablo and things are going to come to light in a very public way.I think it’s clear that she has/had cancer. I’m not in the business of judging anyone’s cancer journey and the utter desperation that would bring.
What I find frustrating is the constant glorifying of the H4C clinic as the thing that has saved her. It actually seems pretty clear that is the targeted therapy drug, Alectinib that has saved her. Twice now. A scientifically developed and proved drug prescribed to her by doctors right here in Australia.
Yet, as others have mentioned she rarely mentions this drug at all. And when she does, its as an aside. ‘Oh yes by the way I’m also taking this drug’.
I found and listened to this podcast ep. It was pretty interesting. Again, in the entire 45 min interview she mentions the drug 2, maybe 3 times merely as an aside. The entire rest of the interview is spruiking the H4C clinic and alternative treatments, such as dog deworming drugs.
She also said that she sees herself as ‘different’ and ‘unique’ from other ‘standard’ cancer patients. And about how many ppl approach her every week for advice about their cancer treatment.
So so concerning that someone with so much influence and reach is essentially creating a narrative that people need to spend tens of thousands of dollars to go to a foreign clinic that provides bogus treatments. When in fact it is the drugs, and the doctors in her own backyard that have saved her - and will save many others too as long as they follow proper medical advice, and not the narrative Kate has sadly created.
Ok I want to preface this with a couple of things:
1. I’ve met Kate, but don’t really know her.
2. I have no idea if she’s legit or a scammer.
3. I knew most of what Pablo had shared prior to seeing it and think he did a fair job representing some of the concerning things about this clinic.
4. This is going from my recollection so I might not have everything completely straight but I’m fairly confident this is based on exactly what she has said:
- She did see an new oncologist before she left for her treatment in Mexico.
- She is taking traditional cancer medicine too, the same one that they know worked last time.
- even the doctors at the place where she is at have openly said they don’t know if it’s the cancer drugs getting the results or what they’re doing.
- She must have legit had the terminal diagnosis as her life insurance was paid out, you do have to jump through hoops for that
- she largely self funded her own treatments the last time she did do some “fundraising” but as the treatment is $60k per block and I think she did 4 blocks (with one of them donated by h4c) I doubt she would have sold nearly enough hats and necklaces.
- she knows it sounds a bit kooky but last time she was out of options and this is what saved her so this time she didn’t hesitate.
things I don’t like so much:
- I do suspect she’s getting some kind of kickback from h4c. I would think it’s highly unusual that they would gift a treatment (how do they decide who??) and also she has documentary and book connections that are also somehow linked to h4c.
- She does kind of romanticise the treatment when the reality is that if you do your research it really is a Hail Mary. The thing you try out of desperation when there are no other options.
- I think it’s super weird that Olivia keeps going there. Olivia has her fingers in a lot of pies and is very money motivated. I know they’ve become friends but it still seems weird she’s been there twice in Kate’s stay this time.
So not sharing this to defend or accuse, just my observations outside of what Pablo shared. I don’t like the way she promotes h4c almost like an influencer she should be sharing as “this is a desperate decision and I have no idea if it works, but I’m willing to try anything”, but I do think Kate will respond head on (she usually does) and I do think she’ll provide receipts.
If she doesn’t that will be telling.
I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if she pops in here or if she addresses all the comments on her insta. I think that would shut things down quickly if she can address.
So.... even if she has sometimes shared details about the EVIDENCE BASED medical treatment she has received, this is not how she portrays her story on her IG. This is not what she credits for her "recovery".Ok I want to preface this with a couple of things:

That’s the exact issue I have, just be upfront about the actual western medicine that’s saved her, it’s not hard is it.So.... even if she has sometimes shared details about the EVIDENCE BASED medical treatment she has received, this is not how she portrays her story on her IG. This is not what she credits for her "recovery".
She actively declines to be specific about what treatments she receives or summarise them. Instead she directs people who ask for details to trawl through hundreds of posts and captions and comments to see for themselves because "she has been so open and transparent". See this comment on one of her "I beat terminal cancer, yay me!" posts for example

If she honestly wanted to tell her followers that she takes an effective targeted immunomodulator that is an easy reply... but instead she directs this person to consume hours of quackery propaganda.
We see the problem, yes?
If you’re not a patient with a doctor in Australia how can you just get scans to check the work of a black magic clinic from overseas??? She’s lyingSo now she is flying home does she plan to get scans done, or just run with the scenario that the hope clinic has cured her.. when did she have the port put in ??
Black magic clinicIf you’re not a patient with a doctor in Australia how can you just get scans to check the work of a black magic clinic from overseas??? She’s lying
She must be linked with an oncologist of some kind to be receiving the immunotherapy drugs (she has been murky about that).If you’re not a patient with a doctor in Australia how can you just get scans to check the work of a black magic clinic from overseas??? She’s lying
“This page reads like a story” Kate says. It sure does. An intentionally opaque one.This is an interesting comment thread on one of her posts, given the concerns discussed.
The clinic has clearly just taken credit for the work of the drugs and she has sadly spent a small fortune/influenced others into bogus treatments for nothing. Hard to understand how the H4C scammers can sleep at night taking that kind of money from seriously ill people.
