If there already is a ping list that I missed, please advise in the comments section below.
I'm willing to compile the list of names, but I'd prefer to make the list available for everyone to use, rather than control it myself.
Thank you.
P.S. I may be away from the forum for a day, so I may not be able to check back until tomorrow night.
everyone fighting this is so brave, and I was in awe of the courage on display in the treatment room on chemo days..
Add me please.
I don’t have cancer and thank the Lrd none of my family do either, but I do have a brain tumor and I would like to be part of a Freeper ping list that deals in cancer prevention and fighting - especially if some of it is outside the box from the standard oncology poisoning über alles techniques.
If that is ok, please include me. Thanks.
Please add me. Just diagnosed with sclerosing basal cell carcinoma.
Please add me to your list if my name is not already there. Thanks, Tired of Taxes
Found out two days ago that I have prostate cancer. Caught it very early and survival rates for 5-15 years is virtually 100%.
If you have to have cancer, prostate cancer in the early stages is the one to get because the cancer can be destroyed. Now that I have been diagnosed, I will be getting treatment at MD Anderson in Houston, the best cancer treatment hospital in the world. Might even get into a research project with them.
Booked for Mohs Micrographic Surgery at Women’s College Hospital, Toronto, on February 4. They told me to bring my own lunch. Ain’t socialized medicine grand?
Please add me to your ping list

Our son, 48, has been diagnosed with inoperable small cell lung cancer. He has undergone 2 sets of chemo and is slated for radiation to begin on 17 Dec.
We have been footing much of his bills and hope SS and Medicare kick in soon, but the hardest part is that my wife is his main support system at this time. Any advice/prayers welcome.
BTW, my wife picked up a Caregiver's prayer. I am including it for any who may want it:
A Caregiver’s Prayer
Heavenly Father; help me better understand and believe I can do what you ask me to do.
Forgive me for the times, even now, when I question your judgment.
As I go about the many daily tasks of caregiving, give me energy.
As I watch my loved one oh-so-slowly walk across the room, give me strength.
As I answer his/her repeated questions just one more time, give me patience.
As I look for solutions to whatever is the most recent concern, give me wisdom.
As I reminisce with him/her about the “good old days,” give me a moment of laughter.
As I get to know my loved one in a new way, seeing both his or her strength and frailty, give me joy.
As I sit beside my loved one’s bed waiting for his or her pain medication to take effect, give me comfort.
Lighten my burden, answer my prayer, and give me the strength to to what so often seems impossible. Give me a quiet place to rest when I need it and a quieting of my anxieties when I’m there.
Change my attitude from a tired, frustrated and an angry caregiver to the loving and compassionate one I want to be.
Remain my constant companion as I face the challenges of caregiving and when my job is through and it’s time for me to let go. Help me remember that he or she is leaving my loving arms to enter your eternal embrace. Amen.
Please add me. My Son is a lung cancer survivor. Thanks.
