"It was pretty random and sudden things moved very quickly" Those words hit hard. At the end of June this year my mom went to the doctor because of a pain in her abdomen, which was a cyst, but than they found colon cancer...and it was already spreading into her lungs and liver ->random an sudden. Sadly she passed away on August 22rd this year, the funeral is tomorrow. I hope your journey ends better than my moms. All the best to you and your loved ones

Of course, you mentioned in your initial video that you felt positive and confident that everything would go well, which it sounds like it has so far, but cancer of any kind is extremely scary and worrisome, and for you to remain so positive as you fight this is so inspirational, and it really strengthens my hope that you will, indeed, overcome this, that you will, indeed, beat this, and that you will, indeed, one day be cancer-free. I look forward to further updates on how things are going, and I think that yeah, you could share your pictures with us, but it would actually be a good idea like you suggested to provide time stamps for those who may be a little sensitive to such.

I hope you're doing well, definitely tell your story. You never know if it might help someone else out. The good thing is that medical science tends to double it's knowledge every twenty years. There are a lot of things that are treatable and "cureable" that weren't when I was back in high school. I know everyone and their grandmother will say things like yoga, clean eating, crystals and stuff like that. John Hopkins has a few peer reviewed studies on turkey tail mushroom and the reduction of tumors (in combination with regular medical treatments). Biology and pharmacology aren't my strong points I just like cultivating gourmet mushrooms. If they are running clinical trials in your areas you might want to ask your tumor doc about it.
