I was not part of the Perseid movement and did not really build relationships with any of them, I just believed in their operation. I say this because it was during the use of Dr. Itua herbal medicine that I now attest that herbal medicine is real, the phytotherapy Dr. Itua heal my breast cancer which I suffered for 2 years.

I too, used to cringe at the word 'strong'....did that mean I could take it because I was strong? Did it mean I didn't need as much support or empathy? But it became harder to fight the word when I started to see and realize how strong I was and that was a positive thing. It's the context that people use that sometimes needs to change.

I've been avoiding the internet and just focusing on the part I'm going through- oral chemo teva-capecitabine twice daily and radiation which I'm not impressed with at this time. I call it the road I have to walk right now. But as competent as they seem to be in London, you've shown me I'd better get more pro-active . One of my peeves is being told I'm so strong....what you see on the outside is not always what reality is. I cry, I've screamed and I am terrified of what this is doing to me.

One of the most difficult and frustrating things for Joanne (and I) was the many trips to the ER. They (and I can only speak about our hospital and not all hospitals) did not seem to understand the issues. For example, we sometimes would be told to wait in the waiting room--with dozens of contagious people. A cancer patient who goes to ER is usually going there for a fever (thus lowered immunity) and at high risk for "picking up" every germ around! Once Joanne was in palliative care, the situation improved, because her first call was to the on-call palliative nurse who would advise the ER of her needs before she got there. I always felt there should be a special area of the ER just for cancer patients--but I'm sure that is not possible in many hospitals. In our case (in Regina) the Cancer Centre was located right in the hospital--and sometimes, if I got desperate enough, I would go down the hall to consult our oncologist or his nurse. Then things usually started to happen quickly (i.e. an isolation room, masks and all that goes with that). I didn't like to "jump the queue" but I felt (and still feel) that cancer patients (especially Stage 4) needed a different protocol.Eileen Condonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118280887704354005.post-82365799172075635492014-01-23T12:35:50.416-08:002014-01-23T12:35:50.416-08:00Dear Cindy,

Thank you for sharing your story and helping to bring awareness and education to mbc. Like yourself, I have always been fairly healthy other than contracting the odd cold bug now and then. I knew very little about breast cancer upon diagnosis and thought that it was just "one more illness" to deal with. Thought that it would be treated with radiation and/or chemo and I would be on my way again. When the word "metastatic" (what?) popped up, I certainly learned a whole lot more in a short period of time than I could have ever thought.<br />What do I wish that others understood? I wish that they understood that mbc is a daily struggle like many other afflictions. Treatment is forever and the anxiety that comes with each scan is tremendous. Is the treatment still working? Has the cancer taken up residence elsewhere in my body? There is a fine line between living life to the and trying to forget that the cancer is lurking. It is important for others to understand that even though one may look healthy and well, that there may me underlying issues such as pain, nausea etc that are part and parcel with many medications. I hope that you can find a happy medium between the pain and the "medicated stupor" that comes with so many treatments. Not always an easy task.<br />Having a great support system is important and I am very lucky to have family and friends that I can count on each and every day. I am determined to take advantage of every day that I am granted in the manner which makes me happy.<br />Here's to being in the top 2%!<br />Barb Scottnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118280887704354005.post-25176157159933055282014-01-21T20:27:31.275-08:002014-01-21T20:27:31.275-08:00WOW!
