**** Cancer

I can only relay my experience, but this was not a good thing.
The morphine provided relief, but it accelerated the process. I was really surprised that here in the UK, it was given as self administered with some instructions. Getting the dosages right is tricky, too much and the person gets a lot of relief, but they are hardly awake, with the liver cancer and toxins, death was going to happen through slipping into a coma, so sleep was scary.
The morphine took a toll on the body quickly as well, even when we got the dosages better, we had very little lucid time, eating became even more challenging and overall it was quite a rapid decline.
In hospice, they made some adjustments, but there was no real pain relief, i strongly suspect after her conversations with the staff, they changed dosages in a way to provide relief, but legally accelerate the death process, she was desperately wanting it to be done. (it's either that, or she had an uncanny ability to know the disease spread and that it was over, she told us the last day, that it was her last day)

I am sure it is different for everyone, and I truly hope this is just a relief mechanism rather than "making them comfortable".
You sound like you care about this person a lot, I think you might need to prepare yourself for the possibility that this chapter is coming to an end. Im really sorry man.

Also I am so sorry for your loss . :crying:
 
My wife’s uncle passed early last year from colon cancer. Not long after, my wife, still under 40, was diagnosed with breast cancer. She’s incredibly strong and went through all the treatment like a champ. Thankfully, she’s now in remission. While that was happening, my mom passed away.

This year, my wife’s mom was diagnosed with lung cancer as well and is currently undergoing treatment.

To top it off, we lost our 17 year old dog last year too.

It’s honestly been brutal. It sucks.

My wife’s oncologist mentioned how patients are getting younger and younger. He’s had several under 28 diagnosed with breast cancer. It’s scary.
 
I had a sonar done on my prostate a few years ago when I was around 36, suffice it to say it was a chemical in mush bodywash that was causing all sorts of odd things.

Only thing I caught early and removed was early signs of melanomas - early stage conversion, so not technically classified as such.

How's your cancer journey now? Still clear? I went for an ultrasound last week, have to do a biopsy in a week or so to find out if I have to be concerned. Shitting bricks slightly.

Still in remission.
Everything was still behaving at my last check up in February.
Oy, sorry to hear, I hope it's nothing
Good luck
 
I was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2016 at the age of 34 ... had the operations, chemo, and radiation treatment ... and have been in remission since ... had my last checkup last week and all is good.

On the positive side ... I have struggled all my life up until then with the worst eczema, like really really bad in my face on my legs, on my arms everywhere, clothes would stick to my skin ... and after the cancer treatment the eczema also went away and has been away for now close to a decade.
 
Got rectal cancer and am treating it with chlorine dioxide. Slowly getting better by the day. No scalpel, radiation, or chemo.

Don't believe the mainstream bullcrap about chlorine dioxide, this stuff has worked for millions of people, many of those are in South America where it is used a lot.

Wow, I would have to put on my tin foil hat to believe in that

Luckily chemistry isn't concerned about your tinfoil hat.
It works because it's science - chlorine dioxide donates or removes electrons and thereby destroys it's target at such a low level that nothing can build up a resistance to it.

My rectal cancer does give off a substance called mucin which is a mucous type of liquid which is a self defense mechanism but that does not make it resistant to chlorine dioxide.

When I started I used to crap out a ton of mucin, sometimes very much exploding out. Now it has slowly but surely shrunk to very little. No more huge explosions of mucin, which means that it is losing the battle against chlorine dioxide.

You believe what you want, many people who are desperate and have been told to look for a hospice do searches and come across chlorine dioxide and try it and are cured.

I didn't think much of it when I heard about it, it took second time when I heard about it for me to investigate, which I did for a couple of months and saw what it was capable of.

Lucky for me I did investigate it as I developed the cancer some time later. I would have a colostomy bag now and potential of the cancer returning if it weren't for chlorine dioxide, because chemo and radiation don't kill cancer stem cells. That's why you get cancer returning so often after 5 years or so. But the cancer industry considers 5 years without cancer to be a success. Balls to that, the rest of your life without cancer is a success.
