@ThanksCancer Chemo is poison and the bet is it kills cancer before it kills the patient.

Cancer treatment includes chemotherapy, radiation, and a strict regimen of dark humor.

Chemo and radiation will hurt, but it will hurt your cancer MORE.

@JamesMerleJr @ThanksCancer You make a good point people donโt know what to say when cancer is involved. In this case I would have appreciated a simple I am so sorry.

@WetlanderNW โI wish it need not have happened in my time,โ said Frodo. โSo do I,โ said Gandalf, โand so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.โ

@ThanksCancer @Maxx000031 Very very true. Each of us is different and we have to do what is best for us, especially when dealing with cancer.

@BuzzFreeman @jonathanstea @NaturoDiaries You are a monster, going around judging people's end of life and palliative choices without knowing their situation. MAID is not a choice anyone wants to make, but a life of pain can be worse than death. It is a true privilege not to have to seriously consider MAID.

@MicHELLaware Not too much. Went from chemo to radiation and back to chemo so I've been sleeping a lot. ๐ ๐คฃ

@ThanksCancer It's okay to ask for help. It's okay to need help.

@ThanksCancer ๐ Hair loss can be rocked out with cool head coverings if you donโt want to wear a wig - amazon has lots. ๐Eat whenever you want - 4 AM seems to be my time ๐Be Your own advocate - itโs ok to question the doctor and discuss what you want ๐Pain meds are ok to take when you need

@ThanksCancer Not everyone loses weight on the chemo diet Itโs okay to have a shitty day or even a really shitty day There are other options to treat chemo side effects than meds that create more side effects or don't work

@ThanksCancer Itโs tragic but never saw it as a zero sum game. I donโt feel guilt, I feel gratitude.
