I Have a Family Member With Cancer

I just got off the phone with my dad.

My mother's cancer has gotten worse; it's stage 4.

I'm still kind of numb.

my wife's been on stage 4 for 2 yrs now... she's on immunotherapy.

.... just don't sit back, get information, ask these damned doctors... don't sit around and let THEM tell you otherwise.

radiation therapy, little bits of this can extend a life.

you just got to find a reputable place and ... then there's the big IF, do you have the insurance, can you get the referrals to see other specialists?

there are also doctors who work with research orgs, no profit where you can send samples and work with a genome program too!

Ah, I'm sorry.

Stuff you dont want to hear, but ... does she have a death plan in place?

It's easy to get railroaded by the doctors into a bad & prolonged death, it's something that needs to be considered. If you need guidance on someone to talk to about it, please let me know & I'll get my wife to point you in the right direction.
