 My dad has stage 4 cancer and has made the personal choice to “fight” with chemo, radiation, and all that jazz. 

I have seen him suffer all year. Now, he is in the hospital again and just called to inform me that they found a mass in his brain. 

It’s a depressing situation because he wants to live so bad, but his body doesn’t. 

I don’t like sharing stuff like this because I don’t wanna be a buzzkill, but if you don’t see me note as much or in a good mood, I got some stuff going on. 
 I'm giving you the biggest virtual hug ever 🫂 
 Thank you my love. It’s been a rough year for sure 
 Between all the pain you dealing with personally and now understanding the situation with your dad, I believe you need two big virtual hugs now. I'm here if you want to vent. Xo  
 Thank you so much love! I still have a lot to be grateful for, but it has certainly been the toughest year of my life 
 🙏🏼xo 💕 
 Damn, that’s rough. 🫂 
 Everyone has to have a rough chapter or two to have a real story 🫂 
 I am praying for your Papa! God bless you and your family!🔥✝️🙏😎 
 Thank you so much 🫂 
 You are welcome 🤗 
 I will pray for your father's health 
 Thank you so much 🫂 
 Prayers for comfort & peace for you, your dad and your family.  
 Thank you so much friend 
 Sounds terrible. My best wishes!!! 
 🫂🫂 
 Prayers for your father, you and all your family. May God provide the strength to all of you. 
 Thank you 🙏 
 I am sorry 🫂🫶. We are taking care of 3 folks on hospice currently. Feel your pains 🫂✌️. Just take it in stride, it’s terrible, not much else you can do but keep on keeping on 🤷‍♂️🫂 
 Amen 🫂 
 I'm sorry to hear 😔 
 🫂 
 Sorry to hear that. Prayers for you and him and the family. 
 Thank you 🫂 
 ❤️🙏🏼 
 Well, you're not alone🫂. We've all had rough patches. Best of luck to your dad. 
 Thank you 🫂 
 I'm so sorry to hear about your father. 
Thank you for sharing. I hope it brings a little strength through the sharing. 

We're all here for you.  
 I think it was just time. Pretending everything is fine is kind of tiring 😂 
 Sending wishes and strength 🫂 
 Thank you friend 🫂 
 Feel you! I have two here. Two of my most beloved cycling out & yes it is sad to say it makes me feel meager! Love to you & well, just love to you! 
 Likewise 🫂🙏 
 t-y! it is nice to hear from U! Bless! 
 Don't worry about us. You go handle your stuff, be with your dad, and family. They need you, now. You're a great daughter and a wonderful human. We'll all be here when you get back. You are loved, and you are wonderful. 🫂 
 You are so lovely, thank you 🫂 
 i’m so sorry 🫂🫂🫂 
 🫂 thank you 
 🫂💜 
 Sending hugs hit me up if you need to. This sucks balls and I'm so sorry you're having to go through it 🫂💜🫂.  
 Yeah it’s kind of poop, but not forever 🫂 
 Sorry to hear, I'll say a prayer for him. 🙏 

There are alternatives to chemo to consider. Many have been reporting success with this protocol:

 Thank you! Will share with my mom (she handles the holistic side of his health). He is really insistent on continuing with chemo rn, we will see 🫂🙏 
 🫂 being there for him is a great gift 
 Yes it is 🥰 
 I went through this exact same thing with my Mom. All you can do is love him while you have him. Same with any of us really. 

Here I am crying for a stranger on the internet. I pray for the best for your Dad and your family. 
 It’s an absolutely brutal process. To hear about it is one thing, but to witness it is a whole different level. 

I can’t cry yet, so thank you for doing it for me 🫂 
 🫂🫂🫂 
 🥰 
 Loving a parent through a cancer battle is a lot to process and push through. You’re much stronger than you know. Be sure to spend some time in the son and drink water. I’ll be keeping you, your father, and your family uplifted in prayer. Everything will work out the way it’s supposed to. 🫂🌻 
 Thank you so much 🫂🥰 
 🙏🏼🫂

 Your friends here on nostr are here for you when you need to talk.  Sorry you are going through this. 
 This is so sweet, thank you 🥰 grateful to have yall 
 🫂 I’m sorry 
 Ty friend 🥰 
 ✨💜🌲🧡✨

 I'm so sorry to hear that!

I suggest they get a Vitamix blender (powerful enough to break down tough fiber into a smooth consistency, even carrots and kale) and blend lots of fresh fruits and vegetables for him to drink. I personally regularly drink the following recipe and use it to make 2 different ones focusing on green or red for the final color.

16oz liquid (water or milk) 
24oz various raw fruit
12oz various raw veggies (roots/greens) 
2 scoops of vanilla protein powder
12oz ice

Optionally add dates to sweeten further.

Blend on speed 10 for 2 min straight, then when finished blend on low for a few min on and off to massage all the bubbles out so it's not foamy. This keeps in the fridge for a while so you can spend a few hours filling the fridge with smoothies to drink throughout the next few days.

I store mine in the fridge in pint mason jars with leak proof lids. 
 Thank you so much. Will send to my mom 🫂🥰 
 🫂 
 🫂 
 ❤️ 
 We hear you & we are here for you 🫂 
 Thank you 🥰 
 So Fucking Brutal - fuck cancer! I've lived some of this as well and sharing helps people relate that eventually we'll all know someone in this fight. 

I don't know shit, but I bet you keep him laughing even though you're crying inside  - hang tough and be there - you're a bad ass! 
 You’re awesome, thank you 🥰 
 It's really tough to go through that. I am so sorry. 🫂 
 Thank you Vic 🫂 
 Sorry to hear that take all the time you need 🫂 
 Aww thank u friend 
 I’m so sorry 🫂
Been there with my mother. If you need it, I’m here for you 🫂🫂🫂 
 Thank you 🫂 it feels really nice to identify some people who have already been there 
 Sorry to hear that. 
 🫂 
 🙏 
 Be strong lady 
 I will 🥰💪 
 So sorry to hear. Sending love and positive vibes. 🫂 
 Thank you 🫂 
 This is heartbreaking!  Praying for your dad and your family during this difficult time! 💜
I’ve read staying in an alkaline state, not consuming sugar of any kind and ivermectin can help.  
Above all, sending prayers and strength! 
 Thank you! My mom feels the exact same way and has been giving him ivermectin and watching sugar. She’s a real holistic type of person and he’s more medical 🥰 
 Holistic for the win!! Sadly I feel the medical system is just that; a system.  A system to keep you sick and keep you coming back as it’s profitable.  I have a family member who had cancer and was encouraged to have milkshakes (liquid sugar) and other sugar filled things. Sadly he lost his battle quickly.  Sugar is the devil.  I believe I’ve also heard great things about black seed oil and CBD oil too. I really hope this can all turn around for your dad! 💜 
 Prayers for your father. Prayers for healing and for strength. 
 Sorry to hear about your father's struggle. I wish him, you, and your family the very best. 
 Thank you so much 
 Oh babe I’m so sorry to hear this, how heartbreaking for you all.
It’s a tough situation for all of you right now, but please try to enjoy the time you have left with him-don’t mourn him now you will do that later.
For now just enjoy every moment shared with him and keep that in your heart 💜🫂
Always here for you if you wanna chat. 
 Thank you love. Yes, I am trying to stay in the present at least when I’m with him or speaking to him 🫂 
 Sending 🫂... If that's his choice then let it be, I'm more fond of RSO but depending on his jurisdiction and personal preferences it might not be available nor wanted... Just take it as it comes, focus on positives and don't regret things you have no control over. 
As old Chinese proverb goes:

 Thank you 🫂 I believe in autonomy so I respect his choices, but he has tried RSO and is continuing to try a bunch of holistic treatments in addition to western 
 Get him to learn about the RSO hemp oil protocol.

 Already done, but thank you 🫂🙏 
 Really sorry to hear that 
 Thank you 
 Very sorry to hear that. FWIW from random internet guy; Research has shown fasting prior to chemo helps the chemo target the cancer cells 
 I haven’t heard this one. I will let him know 🫂 
 oh no... I'm so sorry 😞  
 Thank you 🫂 
 I'm not too deep into this personally, but I've seen folks utlizing carnivore diet among other things to battle cancer. Just throwing it out there so you can look into it.

https://youtu.be/IIR7C2iRVNs?si=VFiOO2r-BBlLSawv 
 Definitely has looked into it, he has a really difficult time maintaining an appetite so it’s more of a mix for him right now 🫂 
 Best of luck to him 🫡

 🫂🫂🫂🥰 
 So sorry to hear. Family members with cancer is a horrible experience and it’s important imho to talk to others about it 
 Yeah I think so too, especially since so many of us have similar experiences 🫂 
 Sorry to hear, best of luck. :( 
 Thank you. 🫂 
 sending love to you both 🫂 
 Thank you 🫂 
 Praying for Him and your family going through all this. Don't wish that on anyone 💜🫂

 🫂  
 I'm sorry to hear this @Noshole. It's difficult to say goodbye. It sounds like you are dear to him and he to you.. enjoy the moments you have together. I know this feeling all too well, it's tough but necessary to feel. 
 My heart is with you in this difficult moment. Facing something like this takes tremendous strength, and only those who go through it know the weight they carry. May you find comfort in God's words: 'The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.' (Psalm 34:18)

May God be with you and your father, granting strength and peace each day. 🫰 ❤️  
 🫂 best wishes for your family 
 Please read a book -- Cancer as a metabolic disease .  It talks differently than our regular medicine industry .

 If he really wants to live, you should take him of the chemo and onto the self healer's protocol of Darko Velcek== NO CHEMO(or other medication) + NO FOOD (until he has no body fat left, then he should eat raw meat & eggs) + SALTED WATER (minimum 2liter/day, use grey sea salt 9gram/liter). If you want more information ask here or check out https://darkovelcek.wordpress.com/ 
 Nutritionally speaking this is really sound advice. Cancer feeds off of glucose which is carbs. Meat + eggs is essentially 0 carb. Starve the cancer of the glucose it needs. Best of luck! 
 I'm so sorry.  I will pray for you and your family. 
 my mother has mouth cancer since she was 51. she is now 72.  she suffered devastating operation and her face is a PICASSO as she says herself to make me smile. i hope your dad will recover with the help of GOD and give you strength to assist him. 
 i also recommend you to follow the work of DR GIUSEPPE DI BELLA in his fight against the pharmaceutical companies. he and his father in italy have decades of experience in developing a therapeutic formula to help with cancer. 
 🌞Best sincere wishes 🙏🏽 
 sorry you and he are going through this. cancer is a bitch 
 I'm very sorry to hear this terrible news. We lost my dad a couple years ago from cancer. Hope your family strongly considers adding prolonged fasting and a ketogenic diet to his treatment. 
 I am with you, your Dad and your family in prayer. I lost my Dad to a brain tumor a few years back. The Hoxey Biomedical clinic in Tijuana really helped him, but then my Mom died unexpectedly and he wanted to go too. Blessings to you all.🙏  
 🫂 
 That's so heartbreaking. 
You'll get a lot of people offering all sort of tips, I'm not usually one to do that. 
Yet, this is one piece of information I cannot pass up on letting you know about. 
It's solid research and in this quick YouTube interview it explains it very simply (and in only a few minutes). 
Please do make time to view: 
https://youtu.be/9405FgR2Kik?si=t7ZmItmIJpr2uQzC&t=494 
(I've set it up to start at the right start time for you).
It’s vital for you and our dad to know.

P.S. 
If you do have a little more time, this might be worth viewing also, just for your own information https://youtu.be/pZeDbELYb0M?si=VZdJVWMzuNgNOLRu 
 This is the place to share how you feel!!!! We have allowed ourselves to become very isolated in the world. We need to create real community online and in the flesh. 
 Ivermectin, HCQ, Fenbendazole... Cancer can be beaten. You just need to know what tools to use. Don't let your dad make the same mistake my friend made. She died after 2 years of chemo.
