FROM CAPTAIN TO VICTORY OVER CANCER:

THE JOURNEY THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING

Robert Dames had spent years building a successful career as a captain for a major U.S. airline. At the age of 40, however, his world was turned upside down with the unexpected diagnosis of his first cancer. Since he is a man who had always been committed to a healthy lifestyle, this news was a shocking blow—not only to him, but also to his young wife and family. What he initially thought would be a brief setback turned into a deeper challenge. After overcoming that first diagnosis, Robert returned to his flying career, but fate had other plans. Eight years later, another, more serious diagnosis appeared, forcing him to reevaluate his approach to life. This time, Robert stepped up his game, focusing even more on lifestyle changes and adopting a new level of commitment to positive habits. His new approach led to a successful outcome, but just as he thought he was returning to the career he loved, he was blindsided by a third, even more daunting health scare.

The Power of an Integrative Approach

With a unique combination of medical science, hard-earned lessons from previous battles, and unwavering determination, Robert adopted an integrative approach that allowed him to successfully win over cancer. During his third fight with the disease, his hematologist was astounded by his results, remarking, “Whatever you are doing, keep doing it because it’s working.”
Robert has distilled his journey into the book CANCER! WHAT NOW?, where he shares not only the details of his personal fight but also the valuable insights he gained from his research into nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle. This book serves as a practical tool for those navigating cancer treatment, offering real-life guidance for patients and their loved ones. It’s also a source of inspiration for anyone living with chronic conditions, showing how lifestyle changes can complement and enhance conventional care.
Robert Dames now dedicates his time to coaching others, helping them embrace healthful habits that improve their overall experience and enhance their chances of achieving better outcomes. He shows his clients how to combine nature’s healing power with conventional medical care. This integrated approach offers a pathway to not just surviving cancer, but thriving through it—and beyond.
