Home hospice is the way to go.
During my wife's final weeks on Earth we had to call 911 and ride the ambulance to the emergency department several times. In one case she was experiencing a pain crisis but the emergency department was so understaffed it took over three hours of agony from the initial call before anyone gave her an IV with painkillers. Also she couldn't really sleep properly in the hospital room for a variety of reasons. Her cancer was so far progressed in her lungs, bones, and brain that there wasn't anything they could do except try to ease her suffering. But how could they do that in this stressful environment? Then we transitioned to home hospice for what turned out to be her final week. This was so much better. They sent powerful pain meds that I could administer as needed. There were nurse visits and a nurse on call round the clock. At home my younger daughter cooked what turned out to be her last meal and my older daughter held her hand when she slept in her own bed. We were advised that she didn't have much longer to live, and how to know it was the end. Then she died without pain surrounded by the people who love her.

@Susan Lewis I am so sorry. I feel lonely just reading your message.

@Michael Wright My wife also asked for medically assisted suicide, which they call “Death With Dignity.” As it happened, she deteriorated too quickly to be able to do this.
For my mum — and for this community
I never imagined I would be writing this. My mum passed away, and I don’t yet have the words to describe the emptiness she’s left behind. She wasn’t just my mother — she was my best friend, my anchor, my reason for fighting, and the heart behind everything we built here. This community was created for her. She carried more than most people ever see. She lived with bipolar disorder. She carried childhood trauma. She endured a painful divorce, the loss of both her parents, a cancer diagnosis, the death of Pepper — our family boxer — and the loss of Albert, our family’s closest friend. All of this happened within the last seven years. And yet — she kept going. She walked at least 10,000 steps a day. She swam three times a week. She went to church every Sunday. She worked tirelessly on the house. She quit smoking after her diagnosis. She tried carnivore. She cut out sugar. And most importantly: She kept our family together. She fought. She cared. She loved. Even when depression weighed heavily on her will to live, she chose to fight — not because it was easy, but because she loved us. She fought for us when her mind told her to give up. That is courage. We were hopeful. So hopeful. She had just started the Astron Health protocol — only one week in — and we believed we had time. Previous scans had been relatively reassuring, showing stable, very slow-growing, localised disease in the peritoneum and a coeliac lymph node, with no organ spread. Her CRP was 4 — within the normal range. Then everything changed — fast. She developed sudden, severe gastrointestinal pain, vomiting, and diarrhoea. We rushed to the hospital. A CT scan showed ischemic colitis. A mouth swab also confirmed COVID. She was put on palliative care, given fluids and heparin. Her circulation improved. Lactate came down. Symptoms improved. Objectively, things were getting better. But the narrative never changed. Despite improving vitals, improving markers, and improving symptoms, they continued to insist on bowel necrosis — even when the evidence did not clearly support it. At the same time, her CRP (an inflammation marker) rose rapidly from 4 (normal) just weeks earlier, to 14 on admission, to 150 the following day, and eventually to 455 at its peak. She developed rising oxygen requirements, hypoxia, and what appeared to be a clear systemic inflammatory storm — yet COVID pneumonitis was repeatedly dismissed.

I’m sorry.
My wife died on Standard of Care, hydrogen generator available in Seattle
Tragically, my wife was not willing to try changing from her junk food diet when her cancer was detected in 2023. She underwent conventional treatment at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center. She died two months ago, leaving me and our teenage homeschooled daughters. I did get her the recommended hydrogen generator that she tried a few times but did not use consistently. I think the manufacturer is willing to buy it back at half price, which I will pursue when I’m not swamped with other tasks. If anyone in Seattle wants to pick it up themselves, contact me. I have been on a high-fat carnivore diet for years, eliminating a skin problem and the belly fat I used to have. No pharma products in my life, and no health problems. Well, I do use melatonin for sleep, which I should probably quit. Unfortunately my daughters eat the standard junk food diet, which may be why they have skin problems. I hope they will consider improving their diet when they start to get fat. I don’t think I will be very active in this group henceforth. I hope you all try eliminating junk food and extend your healthy lives.
How to raise teenage daughters after the loss of their mother?
Unfortunately last year I was not able to persuade my wife to try any metabolic approaches, or talk to anyone who advocates them. People will die before changing their habits. She insisted on going the conventional route with the oncologists at Fred Hutch here in Seattle. Her cancer kept progressing slowly, on top of the side effects from the "standard of care" treatment. Her suffering has grown worse and she may succumb or choose "Death With Dignity" within the next few months. We have two daughters, 14 and 16, who are very attached to her. The three of them are like peas in a pod. I have some practical questions, such as whether to keep living in the same place, whether to keep all her stuff (she's a packrat), whether to travel and meet other relatives they haven't seen for a long time. I'd like to hear just from people who've been through something like this.
Hydrogen as a monotheropy
URGENT! This is the number one treatment we all need to be doing to fight our cancer! Since no one else seems to be able to find liturature on hydrogen gas see a few publications bellow. The liturature is significant and significant amount of human data here are a few publications and where to buy. Also use coupon code jason to save 5 percent. I am convinced this is more inportant than a keto diet but used with keto and even soc it is a powerful weapon. It has been proven that h2 gas inhalation significantly reduces side effects from soc! Now in my personal experience I recently had my first drop in tumour markers in 9 months. No chemo no soc in the 4 week period. I had not started my imenotheropy yet. I was not on keto diet and was not even taking my normal fembendazole. The only treatment i was on was 2 weeks of hydrogen gas. I slept with the machine on 10 hours a day logged. If I have time and energy I will start linking more publications in here. However this is a very proven tool in shrinking cancer. There is so much litturature and human data on this it's not even funny. You have to look it up yourself and don't waist time we need to hit those tumours now! Don't let them grow! https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8395776/ https://www.mdpi.com/1420-3049/28/23/7785 https://www.wjgnet.com/2307-8960/full/v7/i15/2065.htm https://artofhealingcancer.com/hydrogen-therapy-a-recent-addition-to-anti-cancer-arsenal/ There are alot of fake machines out there. This is the machine Dr. Howard recommends. When checking out you need to add the nose canule and the lye powder. They are not all allowed to be sold together. You must add them to your order or you will have delays in setting up your machine! You need these 2 things!

@Nurul Islam I bought the Hydrogenie H2 for my wife a couple weeks ago. Too soon to say whether it's helping.

@Nurul Islam She's still using the machine. I still don't know whether it's having any effect.
