Wow that was way more than I could have ever hoped in way of an answer. Thank you for being so thorough.

[@kristycannon7923]

Very informative & concise. Thank you for posting.

Doctors for the most part have lost all sense of humanity I was told I had 3-6 months to live and I agreed on chemotherapy palliative since I am Stage 4 ,I met few Dr's.and most talked to me as if I was dead already but it's 3 years soon and I know otherwise but I am destroyed as a man

I believe you and understand. Everything this video is saying is regurgitated trash. My mom passed away on Memorial Day 2023. She experienced the same thing. Doctors told her chemo first then surgery. The only symptoms she had was no appetite at stage 2. By the time we found out that the chemo wasn't working she was in stage 4. They don't want to cure any cancer. Her doctor told her if I were you I'd go home and live life to the fullest. If you want to fight and live there's no help. If you want to go home and die EVERYONE is willing to help and the insurance company is happy to pay.

YOU ARE ON THE RIGHT PATH JENNY - TARGETED THERAPY

[@laurenvillegas6103]

What exactly would be targeted therapy?. Pls if anybody can answer.

[@user-yw7cx3xh6x]

Watched your video. Thanks wished I Watched it sooner I had my ex husband he died two years ago with pancreas cancer . He lived for 3 months and 1 day after he was diagnosed.

[@zombiemom6701]

My mother was not a candidate for chemo. She took fenben and the tumor stopped growing. Then she decided to stop all treatment and immediately declined and died within a month. Oncologists will never talk about fenben because chemo and radiation and surgery are $$$$$

[@boobyhatch7897]

I find no link to the dietary fiber or the enzyme replacement but I will look through your videos and find it. Thank you Doctor

[@spurii4334]

Thank you for that very clear, precise and very articulate clarification. Beautifully spoken and exceptionally well put. My wife is sick. Stage 2 PC. Undergoing FOLFIRINOX (x12) to shrink and God willing they can carryout the Whipple's followed by further chemotherapy to save her life. - She is only 53. Never drinks, never smoked never done drugs - good healthily lifestyle and dedicated her entire life to teaching special needs toddlers. Life can be incredibly unfair. I am going to get her through this one step at a time. I tell her she is strong! she is powerful! She is courageous! She is brave! and she is my warrior woman! A spartan queen! I will not stop until this beautiful angel is back in the classroom doing what she loves - She has so much more to give. I love my wife so much. Beyond the stars. ♥ Tips on how to keep her interested in food would be great please guys XXX Love to you all and never give up!

Comment noted, I am sorry if the tone came across as uncaring. The intention was to get across the key concepts in a short and understandable format.
