my friend is dying of lung cancer. She is taking the most possible oxygen and it still isn't enough.?

Question

she is on the highest dose of pain killers and the tumor is so big it has displaced her heart. How much time do I have left with her?

Answer 1

Your friend should be under hospice care. They can help her through this journey. She will receive all the medical care she needs to remain comfortable and can remain in her home surrounded by family and friends.

What is hospice care?

No one can really answer how long she will live as dying like all processes depends upon the individual. I know a 14 year old girl who was under hospice care three different times, but refused to give up. She survived two years longer than what every doctor predicted. She said she just wasn't ready to die yet and even talked her doctors into exploring more treatment options for her. She eventually passed away in the hospital after developing an infection. Truthfully though I always thought she just seemed so tired from the struggle of living and when she passed she had earned that rest.

Answer 2

Tumors can be reversed, shrunken and killed by natural ingredients that can't be patented, and that information is being debunked and ridiculed by the medical establishment of this country for financial gain.

I strongly urge you to look for an answer besides artificial drugs, surgery and radiation. Here are some books I have read from cover to cover, that are now helping me to survive way beyond my doctors' grim predictions--

"The Cure for All Advanced Cancers"
"The Cure for All Cancers"
"A Cancer Therapy"
"Oxygen Therapies"
"Hydrogen Peroxide--Medical Miracle"
"The Natural Cure for Cancer--Germanium"
"Killing Cancer"
"Natural Cures 'They' Don't Want You to Know About"

There are many other good books about surviving this disease, and you should know about this option, even if you choose to go the traditional route with it's abysmal prognosis.

It may be too late for your friend, and for that I'm truly sorry, and offer my condolences.

Wow - what a shame! Why is it OK to put our pets out of misery when they are terminally ill - calling it "humane"
yet we consider euthanasia immoral and a crime??? I've seen a few friends as well as my father in law die of cancer and it's a horrible death! If I ever come down with such a disease I certainly wouldn't want to suffer like that, so I hope one day they they'll have clinics that will euthanize you before the pain begins. I think they've already started doing that in Switzerland and Holland. As far as your question is concerned..... I've seen a friend last only a couple of weeks after being in a similar condition as you've described.

You can try taking Cesium Chloride with Rubidium. I believe there is also one with DMSO. Its on some natural website made in 2000. I cant put websites here, so you can email me on that. Those are pretty much the two best natural remedies that you can combine to get rid of cancer. Its not a chemo therapy type of drug. Its about $75 dollars a bottle. A bottle lasts you a month. If you have heavy cancer, it will last you about 3 weeks. After taking the natural remedy, you need to eat some bananas or potatoes to replenish yourself with the potassium that you have lost. And, you can also take some Oxygen Drops with this. Cancer cannot survive if there is too much oxygen. What these oxygen drops do is help your body get more oxygen, thus killing any cancer that comes in contact with the extra oxygen. Do eat alot of greens, but I want to warn you of eating foods high in iron. These include but are not limited to broccoli, beef, red beets, etc etc. This is the natural building blocks of cancer. Without iron, it cannot grow. So, cut all iron out of your diet. Um, you should be eating more bran. So, look for bran cereals and brown rice. Thse bind with iron within the body, thus taking out everything that cancer needs. Good luck.

Answer 5

I am sorry if cancer in the lung has been diagnosed correctly than it must be Adeno Carcinoma lung. Once again I am sorry to tell you that she is not going to survive for not more than a month from now.

Answer 6

as a person that has done in home hospice work for cancer patients, I would have to agree with nurse's answer above. less than a month. I am sorry, cherish the time that you have left with them.

Answer 7

I don`t know. You have to be really positive. The mind does wonders when you think strongly. Try and get her to eat extremly healthly. Oily fish and fruit and vegtables. The best of luck to you. Stay strong and i hope the doctors are doing everything possible. She will come through. Contact me if you need help. - [e-mail]

Answer 8

not very long at all. it is good for her to have such a good friend like you to be with when she passes on.
