Hi, Thank you for sharing your incredible and encouraging story. To me it is proof that a person with a chronic disease can age well with proper knowledge and care.
Thanks Janice. I appreciate your encouragement. That is my purpose in writing. I want to help others understand the new science that can support us in those efforts.
To me, that is such a gift you give to others. I also like the reminder that traditional medicine can be far behind and there are better ways. I found that out the hard way.
Thank you for telling your own story in clear detail. I appreciate the many lessons to be learned from your experience. I wish you ever-improving health.
Thanks Carol. I remember your struggles too. Sharing the burden helps me too. We can help ourselves stay healthier longer. The new science is extremely powerful.
In the last 8 years I’ve been treated for breast cancer and then stage three ovarian cancer. I’m lucky to be NED and at 69 I was hoping to get back to “normal”. This helps me understand that the fatigue I continue to feel is real and I’m so glad I eat healthy and am able to exercise. Thank you for this great explanation
It is great to hear from you Susan. You ARE lucky. Your fatigue is real and it is due to the changes in your cells related to your treatment. Your attention to your health will help you retain high function longer. All my best wishes to you. Your story is an inspiration.
Thank you for your personal story - of recovery and decades of survival - also of major damage from the treatments, despite your doing everything possible, like ongoing exercise to stay as strong as possible.
Hi, Bill. Your story is inspiring, and helps me to cope with the several and minor, by comparison with your journey, health problems that bother me on a daily basis. I just turned 73 and now seem to be adding a medical problem per year, the latest being a weak spot in my retina that needs laser treatment to avoid a tear. As for you, these problems lead me to greater empathy for others, especially those with more serious issues. And, importantly, they remind me what a joy it is to be alive, and how important it is to take each day as it comes to us, one at a time, with gratitude and humility.
It is always great to hear from you. Your last couple of sentences mean I hit the intended mark. Empathy is so powerful. It is hard to heal without it. Your last sentence is the key. It is such a joy to be here to appreciate what so many consider the ordinary things of life. Thanks for a truly beautiful comment.
That’s the sad consequences of the American legacy analog medical system which is a “late stage sickness seeking profiteering kabuki dance theatrics” sponsored by the medical industrial complex to plunder the population. The patients are left holding the bags.

Thank you and I really find your posts educating and inspiring
That is great to hear. Please tell your friends. We can have a better healthcare system but we must turn up the pressure to get there.

Thanks Elsa. The good news is the new science can help you understand and stay healthy without too much trouble
I've been lucky. Blessed, even. May that stay! All the best to you, in continuing to do all you can.
And best wishes for your continued excellent health
