Dear Cheryl, you have been so courageous throughout these four years and your’s and your husband’s decisions must’ve been tough and it’s completely understandable that you’re tired out from the relentlessness of this terrible disease.

I hope once you get the nutrition running through your veins, you’ll feel much better in yourself.

I had a blockage caused by the cancer before I even started having chemo and an op. I remember the Colo -rectal surgeon at the hospital wanted to operate but the gynae surgeon asked him to try me on a course of powerful steroids which did clear the blockage. I also had the nutrition intravenously. It did give me energy again.( I then went into treatment).

I just want to wish you lots of love and that you have a beautiful Christmas despite all the trauma you’ve been and are going through, with your husband and family.

Unfortunately no matter what I say to you now is not going to ease your pain or your heartache but I just wanted to let you know I am thinking of you & I 🙏you will get more time with your family & that the palliative nurses can make you comfortable as you have gone through enough already. Thank you for all your advice & encouragement to me since I joined in 2019. If you still have the strength please let us know how you are. Sending you lots of love & strength Xx💞

Hi fendweller

I’m so sorry 😞 I pray nearly eveynight for everyone on this site. I hope they can make you feel better. I was very Ill couple of weeks ago, my red blood cells crashed badly but my white blood cells and platelets were good. They gave me blood transfusions and a bone marrow biopsy. The fluids of the biopsy came back clear no blood cancers now just waiting for the bone marrow part to come back. My GP said I had a bacterial infection but it turns out she was wrong and I had been walking around with shingles for a month so they think it was either that or the medication that made my cells crash. I will keep praying for you and sending you love and hugs

Dear Cheryl. I am so sorry to hear that you have had this difficult news. You are still entitled to the best care and I am sure they will have started to get that lined up for you. I spent most of my working life as a district nurse caring for people like yourself. If I can be of any help to you, I am here.

It's hard to find words Cheryl. I can only say that it's been a privilege to be a witness to your bravery over the time I've been on here. I can only say that it takes more strength & courage to make this decision than to put yourself through more pain without the promise of a positive outcome. Your family must be so proud of you. Sending love & so much admiration. xxxxxxx

So sorry to hear this, Cheryl. My prayers are with you. You could try Fenbendazole. No proven track record for OC but has helped with other cancers. It's being trialled for OC at Stanford at the moment. Check with your team as they might advise against. I'm no expert but when the chips are down, I'll try anything. I have OC and checked with my consultant and she said it would do me no harm.

Hugs xx

Summergold2 in reply to candyapplegrey2 months ago

do you happen to know what the name of the Trial is? or what name they gave it?

candyapplegrey in reply to Summergold22 months ago

I don't know but my research assistant, aka sister, might. We watched a video on YouTube. Melatonin, aspirin (small doses) also recommended. UK does not prescribe melatonin in any dose larger than 2g but you can source from US. I have 10g, 60g, etc. It's perfectly legal there. The Joe Tippens protocol is where I heard it. Found it: youtube.com/watch?v=Wkf01IG...(Not working as expected?). It's an hour long or so. One of the questions is on OC but not sure where it is in stream. Could you get an RA (sister/husband/child) to listen to it? I may not be able to post this here so will send as message too.

Hello Fendweller, my heart goes out to you. I often follow your posts, you always give such good advice. I understand that you are tired of it all, I just so wish you could hang on in there; I am convinced we are on the brink of a breakthrough (not before time) whereby this horrible disease can be treated more like a chronic illness or even better we can all be cured. You and your family are very much in my thoughts and prayers. 🙏 All my love Xxx

Dear Cheryl ,

So very sorry to hear of the progression of this awful cancer. I hope they will make you comfortable enough for you to enjoy time with your family during this Christmas season. Our paths are similar as I have been on chemo since diagnosed Dec 2019. It is so hard to keep fighting but you are an inspiration to all of us!

I'm thinking of you, Cheryl. This is exactly what scares me so much about OvCa. And people say don't worry.. you'll just gently drift away at the end. Well.. that's what I'd wish for you.. so much. It's not fair you should have to be so miserable. Is it possible to get some tranqs or 'I don't care lala' kinda meds so you're not stressed.. if you want that? Much love and hopefully your discomfort will lessen somewhat at home. xx. Maus

fendweller in reply to Maus1232 months ago

I'd hoped to drift away quietly too , I'm being very well looked after by my local palliative care unit, I have a mild anti anxiety drug that goes through my syringe driver along with morphine and anti nausea ,I'm quite comfortable and I'm able to sip water and juices also jelly and ice cream ,an ice lolly is sheer heaven , I won't say don't worry because you will , I hope you're one of the lucky ones,but you will be cared for .xx

Cheryl,

I don’t respond often but I read this forum every morning and celebrate and am saddened with everyone’s good news and trials. We began our journey with OC at the same time and I have been emboldened by your bravery and desire to live. My heart sank with your recent health deterioration but I am so happy palliative care is assisting you. I think of you every day. May peace fill your heart.

You are the reason, after my last CT scan, when my second recurrence was diagnosed, and chemo was determined, that I said not now. I have a grandson being born any day, the holidays with family, my 65th birthday and a few more memories to make before I go down this road again. I want to live life my way as much as possible. Chemo will be there in February when I am ready to hunker down and deal with it. I surprised myself with my words but gained the strength from women like you.

Blessings to you. Know that you are loved in this forum.

Colette
