CANCER STIGMA VS HPV16 THROAT CANCER STIGMA

June 29, 2017 by David Gillaspie

Recent posts on my trials with cancer reached forty out of fifty states in America. That’s the reach map for boomerpdx from google analytics. The shaded states have the most readers. The white states forgot to check in. Does it make the shaded states better. Yes, it does, but only until they shade in. […]

June 29, 2017 by David Gillaspie

What’s the best weapon to use against Portland P16 neck cancer? A kick-ass wife. Does it take a case of cancer to know if you’ve got a warrior wife?

CANCER EDUCATION, PAIN MANAGEMENT, LIQUID OXY

June 28, 2017 by David Gillaspie

I am a sore throat expert. It’s a benefit of neck cancer education after I graduated from treatment. Of all sore throats in the history of sore throats mine was the worst, said everyone with a sore throat rated above an 8.5.

TREATING CANCER WITH A POLYFACE FARMS MODALITY

June 27, 2017 by David Gillaspie

Treating cancer like Polyface Farms. The best results save the land and the person. Machiavelli said the end justifies the means. But only if the end shares a happy ending? A happy ending in cancer is a cured patient. I’m not looking for a ‘successful surgery but lost the patient’ deal.

SECOND OPINION: WILL THAT BE ONE CHEMO OR TWO

June 26, 2017 by David Gillaspie

From cancer.org: Cancer cells tend to grow fast, and chemo drugs kill fast-growing cells. But because these drugs travel throughout the body, they can affect normal, healthy cells that are fast-growing, too. Damage to healthy cells causes side effects. Side effects are not always as bad as you might expect, but many people worry about […]

P16 THROAT CANCER MAKES TONGUES WAG AROUND THE WORLD

June 23, 2017 by David Gillaspie

It’s taboo, too personal, off limits. I heard about P16 Cancer the hard way: I got it. How does it get you? It’s taboo, too personal, off limits.

CANCER IN THE CANCER CLOSET: GROWING TREND

June 17, 2017 by David Gillaspie

“The first time we got cancer we told everybody. We gathered the team and cheered.” It’s a good idea to rally the troops, focus the force. Then cancer-time sets in. One day. The next. Weeks. Months. “How do you feel?” “Are you feeling better?” “You must be exhausted. Are you exhausted?” You don’t want […]

GET A JUMP START ON GLOBAL WARMING IN THE ARIZONA DESERT

June 12, 2017 by David Gillaspie

The Arizona desert feels like the future of global warming. I’m not complaining about one hundred ten degree days, and neither is the cactus. But how much hotter would it get if global warming trends continue? Check the temps next week. The weather news calls for potential records. My home turf in Oregon gets record […]

MENS HEALTH MONTH, SEE YOUR DOCTOR

June 5, 2017 by David Gillaspie

Younger people ignore their health? That’s not a good trend during Mens Health Month. Maybe they mistrust the medical industry? Big Pharma? There’s some evidence millennials are the most into ‘self care.’ That’s nice, except when self care isn’t enough. Older people ignoring their health is an even worse trend. The mental part of […]

MILLENNIAL SELF CARE = SELF RESPONSIBILITY

June 4, 2017 by David Gillaspie

You know it’s not pledge week when NPR rags millennials about ‘self-care.’ Instead of pledging money to them, they’ll buy an ‘experience’ instead. Cue Jimi Hendrix? Gracy Obuchowicz says it’s more than just social media that has pushed millennials to the forefront of the self-care discussion. “Our generation has seen enough,” she said. “People […]
