  HANDLING CHEMOTHERAPY - Advice anyone?

  by hamsterbait in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have just been diagnosed with colorectal cancer (tuesday).. the consultant told me i am to get a scan to see how far it has spread.. i am going to have surgery to remove it, then chemotherapy with a break in the middle.. strange to say i am more terrified of dying under the anesthetic than anything.

  but i have a fear of nausea and vomiting, which chemo caused in all my relatives who have had it.. any advice for coping with this?.

  hi hampsterbait sorry to hear about the situation you are in.

  i had my chemo over 30 years ago, firstly they gave me by mistake a double dose & i lost my hair after only 3 days, i had a little nausea but never was sick. i also continued to work all the way through it.

  the chemo drugs i was on were vinchristene?, prednisone & 1 other i can't recall but do have it's name somewhere.

  maintaining a good healthy diet, as many have already advised.

  pot sounds like a good idea if you can get it legally

  i wish you well with your treatment

  What Drew You To The Witnesses?

  i did believe for the first 30 years of my life that they had been picked by jehovah god to dispense the truth as best as imperfect humans could.

  then, everything became questionable.

  i had read anti jw books in the past but franz's books really got to me but not immediately.

  We were taught the Maori Haka in primary school, and performed often, even though we had very few Maoris at the school, infact I can only remember 1.

  We had a teacher who was married to a Maori lady and Maori culture was taught on a regular basis.

  I'm much like the other Kiwis here, who now live outside NZ, seeing the Haka brings a lot of pride in being a Kiwi.

  before i dive into the actual write-up of this experience, let me put some things straight.. i have thought long and hard if i should write more about my experiences during the 10+ years at different branches.

  during these years i worked from financial department, service department, home office and different it assignments.

  as you can imagine one sees and hears and reads a lot of stuff going through different stations in different countries.
