I'm so sorry to hear that! So sad for her, for you, for the kids. I'm sure she wanted to fight this disease so hard it made her constantly angry. As if being sick was a failing, a slur on her being able to be on top of things. That's how it seemed to be for my ex. He fought so hard, so uncomplainingly, stoically. And he didn't want sympathy or help or support (other than the doctors and staff). Sadly, he too has passed away yesterday, the 24th of May, in ICU, 6 days after surgery.💔💧 My tears are the worst for his stoic struggle, the hope and fear and suffering in his eyes, the relentless pain that he has so long endured. Like an animal caught in a trap no longer trying to escape, as that brings only more pain. I felt for him so deeply. I do appreciate and respect the doctors and staff for their warmth and help and support and expertise. But you have to wonder are we on the right track, in our approach using radio/chemo/surgery for cancer. I watched him get tortured to death in order to have a chance to get better. Both by the disease and the treatment. Medicine is constantly inventing new approaches and technology. Perhaps we need to declare chemo/radio/(with or without) surgery as unacceptable, to speed up the search for more holistic and benign methods🌞💔🧡
