That Dragon Cancer

—

So I am ignoring the prompt today and asking for genuine advice and prayers from anyone who happens to see this.

Yesterday I found out my mom does in fact have cancer. She apparently has two different kinds which is a bit crazy to me. Luckily, the doctors feel as though it was caught in time so they are not expecting as many issues with the treatment.

She is supposed to be meeting with some surgeon in the next couple of days or so. I will be going with her but neither of us have any experience dealing with anything like this for good and bad I guess.

For anyone that has unfortunately had to deal with either having cancer or being there for someone who had it, How did you deal with it from day to day? Are there any questions we should ask the doctors? How can I better support my mom? I just need some advice and support I think.

Most of all, PLEASE keep my mom, Cathy in your thoughts and prayers.

Sorry for not doing the prompt but this is a tad more important I would say lol.

    I know someone who went through cancer a few years ago. The doctors only gave him a few months to live. My mom did some research, and found out that doing a cleanse had some miraculous results. While going through the treatments, he went on a strict vegan diet. The doctors were amazed at the results. A few months later, instead of dying, the cancer was completely gone! He has now been cancer-free for a few years. I don’t know if this works for everyone, but it definitely worked for him.

    I will definitely keep her in my prayers. May God be with you and comfort you in this time of need.

      Wow that is a story!
      I have heard similar sentiments for doing cleanses along with fasting just to get rid of all the crap in our bodies. I will definitely let my mom know cause Lord knows, we do not eat the healthiest.

      I appreciate the prayers and thoughts Taylor! Thank you ♥

My favorite genres to read and review include romance, fantasy, mystery, and many subgenres of those as long as it is clean. I mainly get my books from my Kindle Unlimited membership, but I also found myself checking out library books on Libby as well.

As you can see, I do not solely post book reviews, I also love posting daily prompt writing, as well as stuff that is going on in my life currently. That being said, my passion is reading and reviewing books to my heart’s content, so hopefully that is something you are also interested in.

I do have a Goodreads where you can follow if you desire (no pressure!) I also have a StoryGraph, of which you can follow me here.
