This is timely for me. Thank you. We are two weeks out of treatment and I think the trauma is coming down on me all at once. I cared for my son for eight months of treatment and it felt like an honor to be by his side every step of the way. I’m now getting hit by a tidal wave of exhaustion and realizing how much my world changed while I narrowed my focus on him. I feel lonely and sad and a bit lost. It’s a disorienting experience. I never want to complain after what he’s been through—it’s so beyond unfair. Thank you for giving me permission to share and the incredible empathy and kindness you’re demonstrating while navigating your cancer treatment. It’s such a testament to your beautiful heart.
I’m sorry you all are going through this. I honestly think it was easier on me than it was on my husband and sons. As a parent, you may be strong at everything but when it comes to your kids being in danger, there’s just nothing like it. I’m sure you would do anything to have the pain and worry transferred away from him to you. You got the worry you just didn’t get the rest of it. I hope things are going well for him and the outlook is good.
Before my cancer x2 diagnosis, my husband and I invested in a cancer company. It’s now in clinical trials with positive results starting to come in. I did oncology treatments for pets in my veterinary practice. Then left full-time private practice in November to help with the human cancer company. My husband and I along with another couple also founded a company to treat pets with solid tissue tumors. I’m bound and determined to help cure cancer before I die. I don’t want people to have to go through all the terrible side effects of the current types chemo on the market.
Please know that help is coming. Take care of yourself too. He needs you at your best. Also there is a 21 year-old writer on Substack going through chemo for the second time right now. Your son and he might have a connection. If so, search for Nico. I’ve spoken to him and we’ve texted. Great guy going through a lot. You can also contact me anytime.
You are most welcome, I just want to help people going through this. Go to Angiex.com. We are just finishing all the legalities of setting up the pet cancer company so we don’t have a website up yet. But Angiex has information on the treatment and clinical trials going on.
I’m sorry you’re going through that. I never really thought about it until I got cancer, but it is really hard on the family. My dad had colon cancer at 72 and he opted for no chemo. He felt like that everyone he knew that went through chemo didn’t do well and were kind of miserable. That was hard for me to accept that. Honestly we live five months and only the last six weeks were not good. The rest of it we all had a good time and enjoyed him. Have you thought about clinical trials? I’m involved in a cancer company called…AngieX. It’s not the type of therapy that makes you sick at least so far in our clinical trials people have felt good. You could go to Angiex.com and read about the clinical trials. It’s not for blood-borne cancers like leukemia. However, it looks like it’s gonna be pretty effective against solid tissue tumors which 90% of human cancers are solid tissue. The clinical trials right now are in San Antonio. Nashville, and in Virginia. It’s opening in LA in September and it’s also gonna be at MD Anderson in the fall. If you want to talk about it or anything, let me know. My email is drtinaneel@gmail.com.
This is important, thank you for sharing!
Thank you. I hope it helps people get a better understanding of how to interact with cancer patients, and their families.
