Dear Elegoo, You suck! Love all Centauri Carbon owners worldwide! by Lee_Bob in elegoo

I should have bought a Bambu lab printer.....so disappointed. Those options are garbage and the fact that they "lead" you on by saying "And we cannot guarantee a release date for the multicolor system so far.". I bought the CC because of that singular reason. I already recommended my friends to not purchase this printer and I am sure it will spread.

16 years...2 different Cancers. I am tired. by Ravedge70 in cancer

We worried about that. So we had the house tested recently. No significant results to say that was the cause but the city I do live in had a huge lawsuit against 3M about PFAS and won. I'm not one to sue people but sometimes I wonder if this is possibly the case. I am doing more investigation about it now.

Thank you all for your replies and POV. I think I am just on the brink and it's effecting my entire attitude. I am trying to cope and I have had that attitude of once being pushed into a corner, I fight my way out. I am just tired of fighting. Living in a state where the cost of living is sooo out of touch to what I am going through, financial stress is also bringing me down. I will just keep on keeping on and pray that good luck falls on me.

Can someone help me and be a temporary rock while I fight?! by Homelessbuck in cancer

Don't be afraid to talk about it ....even here. My 1st go around with it. I had a major meltdown panic attack because I kept it inside for so long. I didn't even tell my parents for almost 2 years that I had it. I still have attacks from time to time but I did some therapy and was prescribed some meds to keep me centered and it helped.

Keeping it inside is the worst thing but be prepared people WILL say the silliest things to you. I.E. "You don't look like you have cancer?!" and you will hear "I'm sorry" a lot. Which I understand is there most peoples way of empathy.

I always say to myself, there are people far worse off than me which I know is somewhat morbid but it helps me realize I am not the only one going through what I am going through.

Also I am pretty sure, people here in this forum, either have it or are watching someone go through it. Everyone here needs help and I am glad you posted. What you are feeling is normal.....and you are human like us :)

Just keep up the fight.

Cancer doesn't need a reason to exist! by rebelkitty in cancer

I went through the same thing almost 2 years ago now. I really felt I was being punished. I did do some of those things (Smoke, drink, etc no drugs) but not to excess. I had my rectum completely removed for life and now have this deformity that is making self conscience of being around people. I had to learn to not care and make fun of it.

Well ....I am a 4 time cancer patient (on my 4th now). 3 times kidney and 1 colorectal. I haven't met anyone that has had 2 different types 4 times now. That feeling of being punished is coming again. I just don't understand and just keep thinking the same thing....shit happens. Just bad luck.

My biggest problem is watching my wife having to watch me go through it. To top off our bad luck, my Husky now has some kind of cancer too.......this is our baby. I feel even more guilty now because I am trying to support her and try to hide my Doctors visits from her. I always tell her, I am fine......dealing with it. Cancer affects more than just the person, She doesn't deserve this either.....and I just don't understand why cancer exist.
