I love books, weird knowledge, cats, scruffy dogs, & happy beautiful things. I yam what i yam.
Lung cancer known since 2019 - both kinds now. Lucky me it just entered my brain.
Trying to stay alive till my boy is almost grown, hopefully. He is 10.

Children's in DC is starting to recruit kids with pediatric sarcomas and other solid tumors that have resisted chemotherapy and radiation, using their own T cells as therapy. Effort supported in part by National Cancer Institute.

Why this clinical trial is offering some young cancer patients hope
Children’s National Hospital is poised to recruit patients for a new clinical trial that will take on an old, implacable foe: children’s solid tumors. Little progress has been made in 30 years.

I made it to 48! It’s almost a miracle. I was diagnosed at 41 with young lung cancer and I have been stage 4 for over 5 years and now I’m also stage 4 with small cell lung cancer for over a year and a half. I am lucky.

The more I think about this quote the more and more I see it applies to my own diagnosis. I find myself too often still trying to appease everyone.
Sometimes self care looks like you doing what’s best for you and the ones you love. Don’t forget that. #Cansky

Fatigue that rest doesn’t fix.
Relationships that feel different.
A body you barely recognize.
Life after cancer is complicated. And most people don’t talk about this part.
Let’s change that.

This is appalling.
“I would like to cure brain cancer. I think that's not particularly controversial.” Be that as it may, the NIH terminated that scientist's grant. Here's a huge survey of the 2,500 grants that NIH has killed or delayed...so far. Gift link: nyti.ms/43Jz1yJ

Powerful talk from @katiekickscancer.bsky.social speaking on what patients are experiencing and what do they want from their team, oncologist, and the field 🧬. I can’t recommend listening to this presentation if you are an oncologist.
