I can honestly say from my heart - I know exactly how you feel right now. Its like entering a whole new world and its terrifying. Yes do absolutely throw everything at it, do not just rely on chemo alone. We were told that platinum chemo had a 95% response rate the first time and would put my fiance in remission... he did not even get that chance.  You will find oncologists wont advise or recommend anything related to nutrition/diet or anything “non FDA approved” - but absolutely do your research, and try anything and everything, you have nothing to lose ...

I am so heartbroken. I was supposed to marry him last weekend 😞  It doesn’t feel like almost 9 months have passed, and he doesn’t leave my head for a minute. I miss him immensly, its just not fair 😞  I ask myself “why?” Every single day.   I am based in melbourne. And I am super happy to hear you are doing alternate on the side, and on to it straight away. Your partner needs to keep his immune system as strong as possible.  There are so many good things out there, and I would give anything to rewind time to have been able to try more of the things I have since discovered. I have consumed myself in reading and research since his passing.    If you are on facebook, there is a really good group called “cancer cures and natural healing research group” - I have found alot of comfort and so much knowledge from people all over the world in this group. There are some incredibly inspiring stories from people that were dealt the worst cases. And I have come across a few long term survivors of small cell in that group too!      ... View more

Hi laura, I am so sorry to hear your partner has this. It is an awful disease. I know how very overwhelming and frightening it is at the begining, and how scrammbled your mind is, and that you will just do whatever the doctors tell you. but the best advice I can give, and I wish to god I knew what I know now.. is do your research. Knowledge is power. Download the series “the truth about cancer” by Ty bolinger. Its a 9 series documentary. Ep 1 & 2 are free on youtube. there is unbelievable insight and I have gained so much knowledge from it. There are an aubundance of other therapies that can be done alongside conventional that have worked for so many people.  I also strongly recommend getting hold of pure cannabis oil - needs to be high THC.   please do not sit and wait to see if chemo alone works, throw everything at the kitchen sink.   ...sadly my fiance trusted the doctor too much. And waited around to see if chemo worked. It didn’t. He had progression post the third cycle, all it did was deterioate him at a rapid pace, I lost him in August 😞 😞  Bu the time he agreed to try alternate methods it was too late, he was far to ill to go anywhere or do anything else.      ...
