My second-oldest sister's old doctor gave her a diagnosis of bronchitis in the fall of 2009. She finally dumped him, and the first day she saw her new doctor in February 2010, he told her she had lung cancer. It was inoperable...small squamous cell. The oncologist told her that that type of cancer responds to treatment well, but it will come back, and with a vengeance. After intensive radiation and chemo treatments, 10 extra radiation treatments on her brain, she ended up with radiation burns on her back, had swallowing problems, and radiation pneumonia later in 2010. She had had her first cataract surgery in January 2011, and after coming home from the second surgery, she passed out in the bathroom, smashed her face on the bathtub, and it took 6 hours to put her face back together. In May they discovered the cancer had gone to her brain, put her in palliative care at the hospital, gave her 5 more radiation treatments to the brain, and she was admitted to hospice care on July 1, 2011. She died on her birthday September 2, 2011 at the age of 69.
Both parents, and my three siblings all smoked. My parents and that one sister, the second oldest died of lung cancer. My brother of a massive heart attack and my oldest sister died of a stroke at the age of 74. I was the baby, and never smoked. If I'm lucky enough, I'll make it to 77 in August, and be able to vote for Trump again in November.
I wish you well and a long life ahead of you. I’m sorry for all of your loss, but I do not understand smoking at all.
He's represented Arizona's Seventh Congressional District since 2023, true, but he represented the Third District from 2003 to 2023.
I don't wish him or anyone else to die of cancer, but the sooner he leaves Congress the better. Unfortunately, whoever ends up replacing him is not likely to be an improvement.
Anyone who is facing prospective cancer should start researching low dose naltrexone as your alternative treatment. It has cured my psoriasis and seems to helping my dog who has red growths/tumors on her head.
Since it is an off label use it takes a lot of experimenting to figure out what dosage to take . Reddit has a thread on it and so does facebook
I’m sorry for all the losses in your family. It can’t be easy being the sole survivor from among them. God bless you and any family you have left to you!
That’s a lot of death to deal with... painful story about your sister. I’m so sorry. Hang in there to vote for Trump and to be there for the rest of us. You’re in my prayers.
You have stories to tell…
My theory is that you never get rid of cancer. It just lies in wait and then rears its ugly head in another part of your body later. 🤬
