4. Best wishes for a good outcome
Suggestions from the experience:
Take a notepad and write things down. Stop the doctor to ask for spelling and clarification. Ask for a description of options including likely outcomes and percentages I found it helpful to have someone with me to help recall details Do your own research with the info at hand It’s confusing but there are very good outcomes even if you hear the worst news. If you’re clear this time, change your ways to eat less sugar and more vegetables, less canned and boxed, and bagged foods and more fresh! Best of luck!!! |

14. Hope for the best
I was given a 40% chance of survival. It appears I survived.
If you are so inclined and can do it legally, weed will ease the nausea and other symptoms of chemo and radiation. I would spark up, coverup! And listen to some tunes. Thom Yorke was my salve. Drink water. I hope you don’t need my suggestions Clear since May 2016 Thanks to The VA and U of K Markey Cancer Center. They saved my life. |
