Here you will meet a wonderful caring group of individuals who are
cancering or who are loved ones and friends being advocates
for those cancering. Individuals in this group are not in the medical
professional field. Therefore,we do not endorse a treatment, drug
or product. Our people combined do have many year's of accumulated
knowledge and expierence, who come from all walks in life and are able
to lend tremendous assistance to help you walk through this journey.
There are a few matters of importance to address.
It is the general assumption of the group that one can use alternative
treatments (with your doctors permission) in conjunction with traditional
therapy.
We feel that an individual who has had testing and is returning
to the doctor should take someone with them as an extra set of ears.
It must be remembered that this is a most stressful time for you.
We also agree that a second or even a third opinion is healthy. One
needs to shop for the right doctor for them; as each of us are so different
not only in personality; but our bodies react differently.
You should be seeking nothing but the best doctors and hospital,
remember this is your life and you want to be in control. The best
way to be in control is to acquire all the information needed for your
particular cancer; so that you and your doctor can descide the best treatment
for you.
We find stress is our worse enemy, it is so important to remove
yourself from stressful situations and non positive thinkers.
There are so many new drugs and treatments our there for most cancers
that lend hope to all.
Be prepared for you doctors visits with questions. Should
the doctor interrupt you while you are questioning explain that you have
more questions. Make sure the doctor speaks to you in lay terms and
that he is positive also.
Too often the doctor will give a gloomy statistical report, thus
taking hope away from the patient and we find so many people who
far out live the guess of any doctor. Last; but never least make
sure that you eat healthy and that you keep your immune system built up.
Again, we are here for you, we are a place of compassionate comfort,
a place you can rant and rave knowing that we too have done that.
A place of shelter; whereas all of us know what you are going through.
