Cancer treatment on people over seventy five is a waste of money in most cases...

Cancer spreads some place else

You might live a year longer

But the government pays for it..

I’m over 75 and had kidney cancer. It was removed with the margins clear and have a 95% survival rate. Don’t throw older people away like the Libs.

Thank you so much. My wife is 78. She had a lumpectomy about five years ago. She’s been in pain for a long time, and started using a cane last Fall, then became bedridden in January.

We didn’t learn until April she has bone mets that have eaten into her spine, nearly reaching the spinal column.

Her first PET scan in late May showed spots with 12 to 15 luminosity. Results were in yesterday from her second one showing luminosity of 5, so there is improvement. She’s been on estrogen blocker Letrozole for about six weeks, and I’m trying to keep the carbs away from her but that’s a battle.

She had twenty days of radiation on her spine and right hip. I have hope that she will walk again, while she is believing God she will be restored.
