Chemo, radiation and other treatments aren't compatable with anything.
Have you been following the story of Kay Yow, NC State Women's basketball coach? She is battling her third recurrance of breat cancer. She took two months off from coaching in but returned to the team in January. She is taking chemo and biologic treatments and just led her team to the Sweet 16 in Fresno CA. She's had a nurse flying with her and her oncologist went with her this past weekend, she has been tired and sick, but she was able to coach. She said that during a game--for two hours she didn't think about cancer. More power to her. She's been an inspiration to my mother who was just diagnosed with Stage IV lung cancer. My mother sees Kay Yow out there and she is inspired to lead as normal a life as possible for as long as possible. I don't agree with the Edwards politically on anything, but I did agree with Elizabeth's statement that to give up immediately is to let the cancer win before it has too.
