You are so awesome God bless you girl you're right when the good Lord wants you to come home you'll come home but if you look it up there's certain vegetables and fruit you eat that kills cancer no sugar because that makes it grow I've been dealing with lung cancer for a long time and I'm I'm so glad you have the same attitude I do you know when the good Lord's ready he put me through this let's do it whatever it is it's for reason even if it's you who's telling your story and helping other people you know so I think it's wonderful God bless you

yes agree. Sorry haven't really been coming in here as didn't seem like alot of interaction. I do research foods alot. I do a lot of fruits with seeds ( seeds seem to be high on list for fighting cancer) I do my greens and beets. Dealing with coronary calcification as well so do a lot of cranberries, blackberries, pomegranate, etc. Drink a lot of decaf green tea. When I realized they do my CT scans with sugar which highlights the cancer cells, then knew sugar is bad. Knew it anyway but interesting to me how much sugar and added sugars are in our foods🤔. But yea I just focus on diet, exercise, sorta😁 and do not claim any diseases. Prayers and blessings to both of us.

Ty uno. It sounds like you've had a pretty long 10 years with cancer. Can I ask how old you are? I'm only asking to help me get a perspective on your choices. I was diagnosed may,29,2020. At that time I had I tumor 4cm on my left upper lobe.....I also had 5 tumors in my 🧠 brain,6 tumors on 6 different vertebrae, 2 tumors in my left pelvic and 1 tumor in my left thigh. With no treatment I was told to expect 6 months or less, with aggressive treatment I was told 2 years give or take. I agree 100 % that I will not die 1 day earlier then God has planned however,I do know that a person can still be alive and suffer terribly for a very long time. God is definitely in control and I'm good with that. I also feel that God put my oncologist and the cancer center in my path for a reason. I have had 20 radiation treatments. 8 rounds of chemo (ketruda) with immunotherapy and topped off with targeted therapy!! They had me in the chemo chair for 3.5 hours per session!!even with all the anti nausea drugs I lost over 80 pounds in 4 months!! However I've come out the other side and I'm still here!! I'm coming up on my 2 year anniversary in a few days and I'm still active most days!! Hmm, please forgive me for being too long winded.

longer actually. First round was 2007 but oh my goodness, I have nothing or gone through nothing compared to you. One brave, strong woman you are!! I will be 69 next month. I've done extensive research on chemo/radiation, and just not something I would do. Your tumor is larger than mine. I have 3 in left lung. They say their slow growing....2 doubled in size over 2 yrs but believe my largest is 3 c. Only thing Ive agreed to is every 6 months imaging to track growth progression. When I went on hospice I was given 6 months, that was 2012! Stay strong and please keep in contact💕

Morning Michele. I'm currently on my 3rd cancer diagnosis. 1st time surgery. 2nd time hospice for 5 yrs. Newly diagnosed again in 2020 with 3 tumors in left lung making it impossible for surgery. I can not speak for everyone but can give my experience. On 2nd diagnosis I felt totally defeated and what was the point. Wasn't going to do another surgery so choose hospice. 5 yrs laying in bed majority of time, waiting for death and watching the destruction of my family, as it's large and we're very close. Had a morphine pump, along with morphine pills and liquid morphine, not counting all the other meds they had me on. The 5th year, family talked me into retesting and told cancer gone. 2 yrs later, cancer has returned. Everyone is different but with that news I decided I wasn't going to just lay down and wait for death to claim me. Going on 2 yrs with this latest round and all I know is I will not do any treatment. Those 5 yrs of intense medications gave me neuropathy, which is no joke either. Told my family I will get up everyday, happy, content, in peace, and enjoying every day that the Lord gives us. There are 2 things that I can share... God is my Dr. and he shows me everyday that I'm not going anywhere until he calls me home. I honestly do better staying away from drs but that's my own personal experience. I encourage you to stay strong, hopeful, and live your best life. I am here for you anytime you want or need to talk. Prayers and blessings, hope and peace 🥰
