Hi everyone,
I made my introduction about a month ago after reading many posts from afar. Today I have learned that my mom who was diagnosed with CC almost 3 months ago have done all she could do to fight it. Now based on her ONC prognosis and Ct scan results, she has decided to stop her chemo treatments and make arrangements in a hospice care. I’m so heartbroken.. I was hoping for a miracle… I wish it was different.. I have thought about this moment over and over in my head to be prepared but it really doesn’t make it any easier. I know she had a very difficult time with chemo and it has been take a toll on her body as well as her spirit. It has been really hard to witness these changes… I know that eventually I will accept and come to turns with it but it is excruciatingly difficult. I just wanted to say that I really appreciate this board for your comforts, care, resources and information.. that I was able to receive. I will keep you posted as the journey continues…Jeeyoung
Hi Mary,
I’m sorry that you had to postpone your trip (I’m saying postponed!) and I know that is very disappointing… but if this was going to happen, it’s better before the trip than during. Hang in there, Mary. I’m sending you loads of positive thoughts your way. I hope everything goes well for you.
You are in my thoughts,
Jeeyoung
Bonnie,
Your positive attitude and outlook are inspiring. I do believe that your mind and body are connected, and it is so important to keep positive energy. Sounds like you have lost a lot of weight.. are you juicing and keeping up with supplements at least. I’m also a believer that food is medicine. You sound very well informed so I’m sure you are taking good care of yourself but just wanted to check if you are keeping up with nutrition…
Hugs,

Dear Sam,
I am truly sorry to hear about your mum. Like yours, my mom has been diagnosed with CC in Feb 2013. She is 72, inoperable, stage 4 but she has been on chemo theraphy (Gemzar) since late Feb. The decision to start Chemo was not an easy one because my mom also thought about quality of her life vs. the other… She is doing her best but it has been very difficult and I find myself not to be able to cheer her on to continue something that is causing her so much discomfort. It really is hearbreaking. We are taking one day at a time and being grateful for what we have.. stay strong and be positive. One thing for sure, it really is a battle fighting cancer.
Wishing you best for your mum, you and your family…Hugs,
Jeeyoung
Hi Katya,
I am so sorry about your mom. I don’t really know what is the right thing to say as I’m wiping tears off my face while reading your email. My mother also has CC and I know how you feel about watching your mom deteriorating before your eyes.. I do hope that you have family and friends around you to support you and comfort you… I’m sending you positive thoghts and energy you and your mom’s way.
Please take care…
much love and hugs,
Jeeyoung
Hi Crissie,
I agree with everyone’s responses that each case and each person response differently with each kind of treatment. My mom who is 72 has been on weekly Chemo, and she has been on Gemzar alone. I also think that the age, the condition you are in and the stage of CC may have impact on side effects too. My mom gets a week break between 3 or 4 treatments but she has been on weekly treament. I hope that you dad’s chemo goes well…
