NIKE CANCER TEAM TRAINING CAMP REVIEW

May 15, 2018 by

  After a diagnosis for hpv throat cancer I found a cancer team. An Ear, Nose, and Throat specialist, a radiation oncologist, and a chemo-therapy oncologist, all gathered data for my best outcome.   That was the shared goal. I had a couple of others I shared with them, like avoiding opioid addiction and secondary […]

CANCER EXERCISE EXPLAINED BY CHEMO RADIATION

May 7, 2018 by

    An article came out yesterday supporting the connection between cancer treatment and cancer exercise. It’s a positive connection in case there are doubts.   ‘The Guardian’ rolled out a well studied post with a sub-title, “Leading Australian researchers back world-first campaign for activity to be part of any treatment,” under this title:   […]

MEDICAL MARIJUANA FOR A DOSE OF CANCER

April 2, 2018 by

    Medical marijuana? Isn’t that just an excuse to get loaded without consequences, like jail? That’s what Pat thinks. I caught a rather painful case of cancer and tried one oxy pill, and one nip of liquid oxy, which changed nothing.   Why would marijuana be different?   At a desperate moment I tried […]

CANCER ROOM: BEST OF TIMES, WORST OF TIMES

November 22, 2017 by

The biggest motivation for writing a cancer room memoir like ‘LICKING CANCER, The Full Response’ is paying tribute to the people I met in there.   From staff to patients, it’s a team focused on the same goal, until it goes off the tracks, and it does in one way or the other for everyone. […]

HPV16 VACCINE IN CONSUMER REPORTS

August 19, 2017 by

The HPV16 vaccine article in Consumer Reports pushes hot buttons across the board. It’s easy to understand why.   I’m a father of two, but it’s more than that. Too many parents are overwhelmed with the joy of their own reproductive skills and the bundle of joy as a result. I know I was.   […]

RADIATION, HYDRATION, SATURATION, REPEAT

July 13, 2017 by

      From cancercenter.com Because radiation is used on and in their bodies, some patients mistakenly worry that this automatically means their bodies become “radioactive” after they treatment. Most patients just want to finish radiation and don’t care about the baggage. That comes later. If they beat cancer, they accept the side effects. Once […]

CANCER EDUCATION, PAIN MANAGEMENT, LIQUID OXY

June 28, 2017 by

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

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.

FUKUSHIMA FEVER OR BEER

May 17, 2016 by

That red line aiming for Oregon hit me with a wave of Fukushima Fever. If you don’t live on the Oregon coast, you drive to the Oregon coast. That’s how it works. If you don’t like the drive, you move there. I grew up on the Oregon coast so every time I go to the […]
