All of this happened under care of Mission cancer care and Cancer care WNC. I was told there is no trestment for this type sarcoma bone Cartilage cancer. Lead onc said one type chemo might slow it down but would not clear met. I had already moved to Spartanburg county to live last year and Cancer care WNC shut down 1/1/20 so I was admitted to Spartanburg Regional Gibs cancer which is a good cancer center. Against Onc advice I took first chemo trestment 7/15/20 was bsck in Hospital through emergency room for severe infections. Doctors are sending me Home on Hospice care, the lungs are going fast and right now I useing to my last treatment left, I have laid back shut my eyes and ask my Holly father for a Blessing of Healing and I am working and trying to have enough faith to receive it.

I'm so sorry to hear this. Sarcoma is very difficult. I read a case study where there was a good, but short-lived, response to chemo with doxorubicin and ifosfamide

I know at some point I will be in a situation similar to yours, where my cancer is no longer treatable. No one really knows what that means until they are there. I imagine I would find myself feeling trapped, maybe scared of dying and finding it difficult to breathe.

There is no way for me to understand what you are going through. Still, we have a bit of a connection here on this forum. You might try remembering to breath, focusing on just that breath in and that breath out. You might pray, if you're religious. You can listen to guided meditations with headphones, using bluetooth to connect to your phone. The goal is to be calm, centered and present and from this place, being able to accept what is happening to you and decide whether continuing to be treated is what you want. It is a very personal choice and one that should not be made out of panic.

For me, experiencing life as much as I can, for as long as I can, with the highest quality of life possible is what is most important to me. I want to be with friends and family and if not them , then I want a hospice caregiver. So, the question is what do you want and what is most likely to give that to you?

I wish you clarity of mind, calm, good choices that lead you where you want to go and a peaceful journey when that time comes. I hope you continue posting and let us know how you are.

Is not death nothing more than the means by which one's journey through life is completed and finally the ultimate meeting in SPIRIT will be achieved and joyous eternity begins. Holding that thought close to one's heart can remove the fear of dying and then let the meds remove the physical pain. Acceptance of the inevitable and comfort knowing all will be well, not strength, should be all that is needed. Peace.

Please read my previous post on IP6 and Dr. Shamsuddin’s research at the University of Maryland medical school. Consider adding mega-doses of IP6. Private message me on “how to” if you like.

Are there any clinical trials ? Tough times never last, but tough people do my friend.
