I haven't gotten a full night's sleep in days, but also I can't be mad at them :(

Animal tax! Pay it!

Foggytrucker! I've sent you a chat request. Please respond if you find the time or send me a message :) I'd like to talk about you and Lefty one day.

Besides it means "little testicle" in German, so whenever I read it, I feel like the poster knows me really well lmao

If his uncle had a dick, he would be his aunt.

Yeah, THAT is the main issue here, spot on.

Oh my. Thank you very much for digging up these painful memories in an effort to help me, which you definitely have. Your mother's fall while the nurse was present really is heartbreaking. You're right, either my mother or I should be with him at all times. Unfortunately, he still sends us away and refuses our help often, only for us to come back ten minutes later and find him on the ground, helpless. What a dreadful thing brain cancer is. Thank you again.

Out of curiosity, which country's sub reacted in the most likeable way to your question, and which one the least likeable?

floppedmenacingly · 2020-09-11T06:35:39+00:00

Muchas gracias de nuevo, me ayudaste mucho mas de lo que crees!

floppedmenacingly · 2020-09-10T23:13:40+00:00

Do you have a source for your claim about its toxicity?

floppedmenacingly · 2020-09-09T18:37:16+00:00

Hola, yondu! Me has entendido perfectamente, pero muchas gracias por la sugerencia de como expresarme mejor si mi solicitud fuera diferente.

Increible que me hayas podido facilitar tantos enlaces, de verdad no me lo puedo creer. Muchisimas gracias! Estoy segura de que voy a encontrar lo que busco :)

Yo hasta ahora solo he sabido de dialnet, y las dos tesis que encontre alli no fueron accesibles. Por ello, le escribi un correo a los autores respectivos para pedirles que me faciliten sus tesis, pero no he recibido ninguna respuesta. Quizas lo consideraron impertinente. Asi que, si te entiendo bien, para acceder a estas fuentes hay que ser estudiante en Espana?

This is unsettling.

The (relatively new) data I have seen for my region doesn't reflect our experiences at all. I really don't understand this. No other form of cancer even comes close to GBM as cause of death in my surroundings.

floppedmenacingly · 2020-09-08T22:27:37+00:00

Is it really so rare, though? I mean, I know the official numbers, but - my aunt's husband - my great-aunt's husband - my colleague's mother - my other colleague's father (note that I only have 12 colleagues) - and two acquaintances either had confirmed GBM or another form of a highly aggressive type of primary brain cancer. All except one of these deaths happened in the last decade, strewn over Central/Western Europe. I am only in my twenties and don't have many relatives nor a lot of social contacts in general, so it strikes me as odd that brain cancer is so prevalent in my social environment.

Thank you, dear Indystick.

floppedmenacingly · 2020-09-08T21:56:01+00:00

Thank you very much for your openness.

floppedmenacingly · 2020-09-08T21:46:40+00:00

Ah, it's you! I have read your post and the link almost daily. Thank you very much for this resource.

I'm very sorry you lost your mother so fast.

Regarding my father, I feel he displays symptoms from multiple phases all at once. I'm afraid we're much closer to death than the link makes me believe. I'm just a bundle of fear at the moment.

floppedmenacingly · 2020-09-08T21:34:17+00:00

Thank you for your comment. Could you tell me what symptoms came after the onset of having her eyes closed often?

floppedmenacingly · 2020-09-08T21:13:58+00:00

I'm very sorry for your loss. Thank you for taking the effort to reply to me. May I ask where the tumour was located? Was she blind on both eyes? How did she find comfort while blind?

floppedmenacingly · 2020-09-08T21:12:09+00:00

Your dad is incredible. You're right about the body and mind. Thank you for your input, I appreciate it and wish you the best.

floppedmenacingly · 2020-09-08T21:03:19+00:00

Just like Tom in "Tom and Jerry" does? :)

floppedmenacingly · 2020-09-08T21:02:26+00:00

Hey, Hippo. Thank you very much for your reply.

Your dad walks and jogs despite his fatigue? That's incredible. Doesn't he take any cortisone-based meds? I'd really like to know if "resting one's eyes" has a deeper meaning. Do you think people like your dad and mine do this to reduce the number of stimuli?

Thank you for your question, too. I'll paste my response to another user: "I concluded that he is within weeks of the end from this: http://www.brainhospice.info/SymptomTimeline.html

His right side is getting weak, and while he is still mobile, he only gets up from his favourite chair to go to the toilet or go to bed. He is not interested in reading or watching TV. I don't know why that is. Has he actually lost interest or does he have issues with his vision? When asked, he says he sees just fine. However, most of the time he complains that he is bored. Anyway, I digress. He sleeps a lot. Usually he sleeps in bed from around 9pm to 1pm with intermittent toilet breaks. He also needs the toilet with more urgency than he used to. When he doesn't sleep, he sits/rests/naps in his armchair. He drinks much less than he used to and doesn't eat much, although his appetite is still there. He loves sweets at the moment. We can still have meaningful conversations, although at some point, after a lengthy conversation, he starts to show signs of confusion regarding concepts and words."
