Metastatic Liver Cancer | Unwanted cancer visitors

Unwanted cancer visitors

A day at the zoo

When you go to a Zoo, you pay entrance and you are so kind to pay for food to feed the animals.

Opposite today: Our at lunch visitors: free entry, no food…

Today’s cancer story…

We had some brothers and sisters from father on a visit. Saying: oh nice, you are all eating together… Now the hospitality in fathers house has always been: who enters during lunch or dinner eats with us.

Yet what made mom’s blood cooking was: oh nice, you are all eating together.

Looks nice if you don’t see that:

• father woke mom up from 3 to 5 am and from 7 to 9 am (not to listen to fathers talking but to follow his every step as he is so weak that he stumbles at night)
• last time sister came she started rambling about her health, the health of her husband, the health of her brother and after all that asking: by the way how is fathers health? As if any disease is worse than cancer, let alone they have any clue what a metastatic liver cancer is.

Mom must now be the bad one as she carried on looking at father and no extra coffee, tea nor lunch got served. Hmmm, that could explain why the visitors left so fast…

How to visit people in palliative care

• if the cancer’s patient’s mind is not in this world, don’t visit for chitchat
• don’t go during meals: the are givers already have their hands full with cooking and feeding the sick person, so bring your own food
• bring something useful to make up for the "time" lost when the care-givers have to focus attention on you-the visitor- and not on the person who really needs all the care he can get!
• if palliative care givers or patients could be asleep (which can be any time during the day if the nights were fully awake), don’t keep on ringing the bell or banging the doors
• just phone who you want to visit first and ask when you can come, and what to expect

Palliative Symptoms

Palliative metastatic liver cancer is ugly, and it’s not because of the metastatic liver cancer, its because of the "palliative symptoms". We hear similar palliative stories from people that have been in the same boat, yet with another disease than metastatic liver cancer.

About

Our father passed away from metastatic liver cancer because none of his doctors had ever seen nor experienced somebody surviving this disease. We paid them huge amounts of money and they told us "there is no cure". And just like that, all will power to survive and beat the cancer disappeared in father's eyes...

The best cancer treatment: having a healthy body

As long as there is no bullet proof cure for cancer, it all boils down to Darwin's survival of the fittest. The best way to get ahead of cancer is:

 

• making sure you don't get cancer
   
• making sure your body has all it can get to kill cancer cells

 

Cancer prevention boils down to eating and living healthy, keeping a healthy mind in a healthy body.

 

Easier said than done in a world were your job stresses you out, car smoke pollutes your air, food is filled with residu's and water is polluted.

 

But if your life is dear to you, then you cannot use all the above as an excuse. Father had been smoking, had worked with asbestos and didn't eat much vegetables nor fruit. Father died with metastatic liver cancer in a way I wouldn't even wish my worst enemy.

 

When your life is dear to you, start doing all the things that our metastatic liver cancer survivors are doing:

 

1. Believe there is a cure : believe it like you believe the sun will rise tomorrow.

 

2. Use conventional medicine like chemotherapy, surgery and/or radiation therapy.

 

3. Add to that alternative cancer treatments to boost your immune system and overall health:

 

• the healthier you are: the better you can fight of diseases and
   
• the healthier you are: the better chemotherapy could work for you
   

 

4. Follow an holistic health approach: having a healthy spirit in a healthy body:

 

• focus on less stress,
   
• more relaxation,
   
• more exercise (Jim's son is swimming twice a week for both exercise and relaxation),
   
• a healthy diet based on organic products
   
• make sure you have a hobby to pass your time doing something you love
   

 

5. Make sure you have money or good health insurance to buy what you need to better achieve all of the above.

 

6. Surround yourself with as many loving and helpful creatures you can find: according to pancreatic cancer patient Patrick Swayze:

 

"you gotta have a dog"
