Hi Kris: Did you notice that over72,000 hits were about your documentary on cancer within only two days. This program was and is so necessary, when I go for my chemo I'm always shocked at how busy it is in the Cancer Clinic (London Health Sciences Ctr.) and believe me I've been all over the hospital just getting my diagnosis. And, when I comment to the nurses how many people are in the Clinic they always tell me, Pearl it's not even busy yet. There are so many people who have been diagnosed with this disease it's shocking. I to went back in time and tried to fiquire out why I ended up with cancer and same as you wondered and wondered. But I've really accepted it and just can't wait for the chemo and radiation to be finished. My cancer is a High Grade and can affect any part of my body so I'm being treated for all types of cancer that could happen to me. I was totally misdiagnosed for 1 1/2 years and thought I was going crazy I was exhausted and still working (but barely) I continued insisting that something was wrong and insisted on blood work which always came back with low reds and high whites and when I questioned it they referred me to another Dr. who put me on antideppresants. So I thought okay maybe thats the problem but of course there was no change. Instinctually I knew there was something serious happening to me and finally found a doctor to biopsy a lump I was told was nothing to worry about. Well now I have lots to worry about I guess what I'm trying to say is that all people need to believe in their instincts and fight to get the best help and testing available. If I would have quit asking I would most likely be a goner, but at least I have a fighting chance now. Just thank you so much for your documentary and really and truly think about a weekly program it's so important to get cancer information and how people living with cancer are doing out there. I'm babbling, I have a bit of chemobrain (a real thing). So I guess I'll sign off, but wow over 72,000 hits on this site in two days just imagine, what good a weekly program would do for cancer fighters and their caregivers and families. Thanks much Pearl the girl with no hair.
