  • Not everyone survives

    Would you be so inspired to learn that you can never battle metastatic stage 4 breast cancer?

    A battle you can either win only lose. All you can do for Metastatic stage 4 breast cancer is to postpone it with poisonous chemo severe radiation and several surgeries. That’s all. My wife suffered so and died of liver failure 12 days ago and I’m not impressed with the “fairy tales” I have just listened to.

    Good luck to you all.

    I wish you something better than the torture my darling endured.

  • A Necessary Narrative

    This is so needed and I’ve greatly appreciated listening to these stories. I was diagnosed with a rare tumour at 37 and I found very little out there that could help put words to what I was facing. Thank you so much for this.
