Hi Jade, I lost my Dad to cancer 10 years ago and still finding it difficult to accept 😞 I know I'm not much help but I learned to live with it as I didn't have a choice!! I miss him every single day as if it was yesterday :'( Then three years ago I was diagnosed with cancer but removable so far. Since then I lost many relatives and dear friends to that dreadful disease...what I can tell you?? Hugs.love, strenght for you, prayers for your Dad and all of you!!!!! ... View more

...and once the unbearable pain had eased his cheeky smile will make you often smile back 🙂 ... View more

My darling, there are no right words to sympathize, and no words that can help you in your pain and loss, but that we all carry part of your sorrow and understand at least partially what cancer can do to us. You are an amazing, strong young woman and your angel had an honor to have you as his wife when even for such a short period. He lives in your heart forever! Love and Hugs Vlasta ... View more

Hi Bob, welcome to the site and I know how absurd it may sound, you feel welcome here to let your deepest thoughts out where nobody will judge you 🙂 Thank you for taking time to answer my concern, I was already on similar meds called Gabapentin from the same group as Lyrica but when I read all the side effects I stopped taking them. They didn't help much anyway. I don't know where you are but I was able to have them lot cheaper from the same hospital where I was having my therapies. Now I'm looking for natural ways and as I said since I'm taking the Oligo multi- supplements my pain have been easing a little too. Wish you best luck :) Vlasta ... View more

Hi guys, This was perfectly said, from the Black Sorrows song - Life goes on long after the thrill of living is gone! It is very hard to deal with the survival, aches and pains, fear and night mares...and why we don't just go back to normal when everyone around us know how to do it and tell us 'be strong and you'll be all right' 'be positive', does anyone know what exactly that means? How lucky we are to have this place and share our thoughts with each other, at least :). Wish you all the best! Hugs, Vlasta ... View more

Hi Star, apparently we are restricted from recommending websites so I don't know how to pass it to you. Hope you both are doing well. again and always wish you all the best. Regards Vlasta ... View more

Hi Star, I hope everything is going well for your Mum, I know exactly how difficult it must be for you...I was taking care for my late Dad and now I had to go through myself. But it said, everything is part of the life :(. I can tell you, I almost have given up all hopes that my energy will come back ever so I'm still in disbelief. I live in Melbourne, if you are not too far we can arrange a pamper party for your Mum and you of course, to get you off a little :). I know it's hard for you both and I so wish I could help...wish you all the best. Love, Vlasta ... View more

Hi Caitlin, I had that while having my chemo now about 14 months ago. It helped me brushing my teeth with a natural non-invasive tooth paste, rinsing my mouth often through the day with the sodium bicarbonate, and sucking on mints or having mint tea. Hope it will help 🙂 Good luck!! Cheers Vlasta ... View more
