I have received a lot of negative feed back from family & friends regarding my recent post of Quality vs Quantity. I have been ostracized by friends saying that my motives are not only selfish, self serving and not well thought out, but I didn't give any thought to anyone else except myself. Well I'm sorry about this but "NewsFlash" it is about me. Am I being selfish? I am needing to make some clarifications here.
First and foremost I am not planning on any Dr Kervorkian methods. Or am I planning a trip to Europe and not come back.. This isn't what it's about. It's about finding a ways and means of getting through this without being in continual pain. Perhaps finding a complimentary therapy that is pain free. I admit I was extremely pissed off at certain individuals calling me selfish. Ok Where were you when I called asking for a little help during the times of my chemo? Even asking to be picked up and dropped off at home when done. I wasn't driving after my sessions.I had to take a taxi Where were you when I asked if Adam could pop over for a bite to eat. Not because we didn't have food because he needed some comfort from others who claimed to love him..For a 16 year old he suddenly was thrown into a world he wanted no part of but was there through it all. Sometimes I get the impression that to prove you have cancer people expect you to be in pain, that's what Cancer people do!! BE IN PAIN!! Seriously!! .I'm not about to compare who is more selfish because it's ridiculous! This is not about selfishness at all...This is not a contest! If these pills didn't create such horrendous side effects I would be more than willing happy, elated, and any other cheerful descriptive word to describe my "gratitude" and take them for 10 years if need be.I would take them forever if needed... My point is these pills may be the wonder drug but seriously how many women complete the regime with out extraordinary side effects. We don't have any proof that these pills work! How often do we read women switch from one to the next because they stop working, developing Mets anyway?
I am well aware of the potential consequences......
All I am trying to get across that there has to be a better method in treating women like us. No worries please.......I'm not about to go anywhere for as long as I possibly can......I have things to do places to visit and Tigers to hunt (with my camera of course)! A friend of mine took this photo last month in India. Isn't he a beauty!!
