I’ll start with the patient’s semi-coherent, conscious or subconscious cry of pain: Noooooooooooooo! Get me out of here! Save me! Don’t let the bad man come in my room! I don’t want to die! I’ll do anything! Give cancer to someone else, anyone but me! I’d rather die than go through this! Easy for you to stay positive — you don’t have cancer! I’m sick of you all! Go away!!!! Hey, where’d you go??!! Help me! I don’t have the strength for this! God, pick on someone else, why doncha? I’m falling apart! Oh so you have a microwave on the blink — try a broken microwave and c...

He was a friend of my son’s and my husband, and I know his father. We watched him play football with my son the past two seasons, and he had just graduated from high school with all the excitement and optimism all 18-year-olds have. It is hard to think of anything worse than a cancer diagnosis when you are faced with it, but this is worse, much worse. Just last week I wrote a blog about another teen who suffered from the tragedy of a motorcycle accident. It is getting to the point where I want to lock up my own teens for a decade. We are still having challenges with my older son who took a lot of the emphasis off of my treatment four years ago with his issues and behavior. I found tha...

In recent times, finding support has never been easier to find if you have Internet access, and in some cases, the Internet has brought support to those that may not have found it otherwise.If you're a breast cancer patient currently undergoing chemotherapy treatment (and may other treatments as well), days can be filled with pain and a negative outlook on life. The negative outlook is not what it needed, although it is perfect human nature to experience this. What if you found others in the exact same predicament as you? You're know that you are not alone, which can be hugely uplifting.Man... The Cancer Blog blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=760466 Thu, 26 Jul 2007 04:00:00 +0100 760466
