Cancer

I have family member who will be feeling pretty down because it has to go back in and she will be pretty bummed out if she can't have some normalcy to her life. She is recovering from throat cancer and the first trach left scar tissues on the inside. She has had several severe episodes of breathing distress. Now the doctors say - No Choice It must go back in.

I had carcinoid neuroendocrine cancer and had my left lung removed. It is rare, and I would like to talk to someone who has had this disease.

My mom and I do not talk. To keep this short(ish) please know that it's for many reasons, and it's the best thing for my family. My mom is dangerous, a bad influence and has hurt me deeply in the past but will not admit or appologize for any of the harm she has caused me. In fact, when I used to still speak to her, she flaunted the times she hurt me, throwing them in my face.

My question is complicated. Have you faced death as a Christian? My mom is a Christian, so am I. She just found out she has lung cancer, both lungs, very progressed. She probably doesn't have long, has refused treatment. With me so far?

I want to write to her if it will help HER, not so much me. I want to tell her she is forgiven by me for the sins against me. I do NOT need her forgiveness. I no longer plan to ask her about the sins, she will lie or turn it to blame me. If you have ever gotten close to death, would this help? I worry that in her very final hours, she will want my forgiveness?

A friend of mine has an older family member that has recently been diagnosed with cancer. They were told that he needed to have chemo. The problem is that they have no insurance and do not qualify for Medicaid. We are in PA. Does anyone know of anything that they can do to help get this person the treatment they need?

Any and all responses are gratefully accepted!!

Thank you in advance.

I have considered genetics and all other possible contributing factors and I still believe this to be almost always true. I know most of you will bash me (which is fine - I'm tough - and right!) but I would love to meet someone elso who believes as I do.

A family member, 56 yrs female, was diagnosed with Carcinoma left breast in 2001. Underwent mastectomy, received chemothearapy & radiothearapy. Things went pretty fine until last year in April, the cancer resurfaced as skin & bone metastasis. Again, she was administered chemothearapy & radiothearapy. Still, her life went on pretty much alright, without much pain. However, in February this year, she was yet again diagnosed with Inflammatory breast Carcinoma, which turned our world upside down. Doctors disapproved surgery, the pain mounted gradually, ever morphine failed to provide much relief. Now, last month, her brain CT scan showed the involvement of Brain metastais. She has now lost most of her consiousness; does not speak anything at all, is catherised & is fed through Ryle's tube. Yesterday, she got the last shot of radiotherapy. At times, she makes painful groans, her respiratory rate in very slow. She holds her breath for a minute or so, before inhalation. WHAT BEST CAN BE DONE?
