Thanks, I will keep posting. All of your responses are so helpful. I'm trying so hard to be positive about something I never thought I would have to deal with.
The unspoken pressure from family to undergo chemo is overwhelming. My son is truly supportive and will support me either way although I know he thinks I should be positive and persevere if I have a good chance of five more years.

@mtstack It’s your life and absolutely your choice what to do with it.

I put my faith in conventional treatment. I’ve been so very fortunate with my treatment (major surgeries as well as chemo and immunotherapy). Yes I had side effects but cancer teaches us so many lessons including to appreciate each day day by day, to rest when your body wants it without feeling guilty, to realise just how resilient we are etc.

I had to keep my diagnosis secret from my sister as she would pressure me to go wholly alternative. That wasn’t what I wanted.

I’ve never regretted my decision but I make sure to do my best to use holistic methods as well to help my body deal with the chemo and also support its efficacy. Like nutrition (which takes us back to the original post in this thread), gentle exercise as much as I can do especially outdoors in nature, aromatherapy, mindfulness etc.

A positive mind set does help but it’s often hard when dealing with fear and not feeling well! And that’s ok too. The holistic stuff really helps with putting together hope and positivity and dealing with the fear and side effects, as does sharing with others walking this walk ❤️‍🩹
