It took some convincing but family and friends understand my decision even though most do not agree with it. You hear someone has cancer and the next thing you talk about is treatment. You never ever hear of a person not wanting to get treatment so I think it's just something they never heard before. I'm like the lockness monster 😂.
I've always said if I get cancer I'd never go through chemo.
I had a childhood friend that passed away a few months ago. He followed the Dr instructions and the side effects almost killed him. The Dr told him the tumors were gone only to return less than a year later. He said no more and eventually passed away. He told everyone he wished he enjoyed life instead of going through chemo hell.
If I didn't have arthritis head to toe (severe spinal stenosis) I might have more fight .
It's a tough decision but I still stand by it.
Thanks
