Just a girl. Then I got cancer. Then I was a dead girl. Then I stopped dying. And my doctors got mad. That old chestnut.
I am thinking only good thoughts that it’s a kinder chemo that has you on your way back to health, happiness and hiking! 💜

Most welcome! I did think of this, which is an internet platform and an app you can set up where you can chat w ppl with similar cancers near to you - a sort of buddy system. I have a feeling you might be able to help some scared newcomers 💜 Just an idea-helping gets my mind off my troubles

I see. Well I hope only good things for you on this journey, and I hope you are back to hiking before you know it!

Wow, I wish I did have useful advice, but I only lasted 5 weeks on half doses of chemo and I do my best to avoid it.Honestly, I would keep on them about the surgery, don’t let them wait 4 months to scan, should be able to scan at 8 weeks and evaluate. That’s big long plan to maybe, push for clarity

I’ve studied cancer for 5 years, and now I’m a treatment consultant for others. I’ve been my own acting oncologist since 2020, and since I’m cancer free 5 years and off treatment (Immunotherapy) for 4 - it’s worked out well. Keep up with the good work 💜

I’ve taken Klonopin for 35 years. I’ve taken 20 year old Klonopin before. Worked. Lest one think I’m strange, I was in hospice and was out of Klonopin, which wasn’t viewed as needed because I was going to die, and was in withdrawal from the icu’s fentanyl/propofol/versed/valium/ativan for NSCLC IV.🤷🏻♀️

All the preorders from my memoir I wrote will land on my doorstep on the morning and I’m scrolling, doomed that I cannot take back the thought that being open and super transparent was an awesome idea. I want my delete button 🫣

Thank you. I truly appreciate that. It’s was a pretty tough thing to just lob out into the silence, it’s always comforting to hear something back 💜

Lung cancer at 46, stage 4. Everyone tells me which grandparent/parent died from it. I tell them my mother-in-law died from it while I was in treatment. *stare off*

When I was diagnosed with cancer, I was told there was a 4% chance of living 5 years. That was almost 6 years ago and I haven’t had cancer in 5 years next week. The strange thing is, the odds of living 10 years mirror 5 years at 4%, or other times they are 0%.
I live to mess up the numbers.

Pharma hires companies to survey patients on what to name drugs, the best way to market them, preferred commercials. It’s like: here’s 10 horrible names which do you hate the least? Here’s 2 commercials, which entices you more? Then I get $50-$100 to put on the $250k I still owe them. Everyone wins!
