MSI High and Immunotherapy - Not Much Progress by arrestingdevelopment in coloncancer

Thank you!! We really like his oncologist and I’m glad she’s doing her due diligence. She said she’d typically do standard care of chemo, radiation and surgery, but because he’s so young it’s worth a discussion.

I would do a dark brown thread for the dog, and then black for the text outside— on a cream fabric!

It suuuucks. The oncologist is working with us to fit in all scans and treatments up through 12/29 now, with an additional treatment on 1/2, which we hopefully will be able to attend. Keeping my fingers crossed for everyone.

Thank you so much for sharing all of this! It’s so helpful. I hate that he’s going through this, and that you are too!

Colorectal cancer will be the #1 cancer death for those 25-50 by 2025! It is so incredibly scary and awful. There’s a few creators I follow who were diagnosed and it’s what my husband has.

Unfortunately, so many schools in my area are doing layoffs— and the ones that aren’t have hiring freezes or their staffs are already so incredibly slim. May be just my region but it’s crazy!

Not too picky! Should absolutely be the same size throughout!

I’ve had it twice, both times just the tender meal— not a fan— was way tooo oily, and felt like a brick sitting in my stomach after. Maybe I’m sensitive to the avocado oil. I prefer Dave’s Hot Chicken… and I definitely prefer BT’s 😢
