Oral mucositis (OM) can severely impact quality of life - we need to improve quality supportive care to help #MakeCancerLessShitty for all individuals! Today also happens to be Oral Mucositis Awareness Day #OMAD25 #MoreThanASore
What would you do? Quality or quantity of life? Collateral damage of breast cancer treatment
Oral Mucositis (cancer mouth sores) is a side effect of cancer treatment that affects 40-75% of people receiving chemotherapy, 75-100% of those undergoing transplants, and almost 100% of people going through radiation treatment for head and neck cancers
Chemo round 164 There are so many strong emotions going through me right now and a lot of things are happening in the world today it's overwhelming at times especially on top of having cancer. What shouldn't be happening is Cancer research and funding getting cut at all
Happy 4 Year Cancerversary to me! Cancer has taken a lot, but it’s also given me: 🏄 Surfing 🏔️ Hiking the Dolomites ⛵ Sailing in Santorini 🎤 Meeting Shania Twain (!!) Grateful for every moment. Let’s keep making cancer less shitty. 💛 ##MakeCancerLessShitty
Procedure day and chemo round 163. It's a lot just to face and to get ready to get through it No deep insight no motivational words just that it's ok if all you do is get through it #lifewithcancer #fightcrc #coloncancercoalition #thecolonclub #makecancerlessshitty #mentalhealth
Managing 13 pills daily, plus as-needed meds, can be overwhelming. I number each bottle’s lid and mark as-needed ones with a ring for clarity. How do you manage your meds? Share your tips! 💊✨ #nsclc #ChronicIllnessLife #PillBoxOrganization #makecancerlessshitty
@lungcancerisgay @CancerSuckLess There were times I wished for diarrhea due to the severity of the constipation I had -- crazy wish. Hoping things are as well as possible for you... Yep, I am surprised the makers of chemo-meds have not re-marketed them as anti-obesity meds like Ozempic. 🤷♂️ #CancerSucks
A few months ago I joined @CancerSuckLess as a group to help raise awareness of the reality of the cancer experience And educate people through my experience with a focus on the reality of the side effects of treatment in effort to show the need for improved care and support
Lost 15lbs in a day—who needs a gym when you’ve got gut-wrenching constipation and a toilet marathon? 💩 Shoutout to my iron meds for the extra challenge! #toiletgains #keepinitreal #makecancerlessshitty
Stress an anxiety Medical, money, bills, life, just everything weighs a lot and when feeling bad seems to weigh even more
Through every season—holidays, hardships, and even cancer—this crew has been my rock. 💛 They make the hard days lighter & the good days sweeter. Support like this makes cancer less shitty. Grateful for love, laughter, & strength. ❤️ #MakeCancerLessShitty #SupportMatters
Sometimes all we can do is keep trying Keep trying to be the best we can do Keep trying to be nicer Keep trying to be more understanding Keep trying to love better Keep trying to educate better Keep trying to grow as a person Keep trying to get through the hard days
As we enter the holiday season this year so many memories come back over the last 9 holiday seasons since I was diagnosed with colorectal cancer. Cance changes everything and not just for the patient but the caregivers the support around you friends family and more.
November is National Family Caregivers Month (NFCM) Caregivers play vital roles in lives of cancer patients & survivors, offering us emotional support, practical assistance, and encouragement. Who is part of your caregiver community? How do they help you to #makecancerlessshitty
Every cancer patient deserves palliative care. #bcsm
American Society of Clinical Oncology guideline update on palliative care for patients with cancer: Addressing the reality gap Commentary on Cancer by ACS The American Society of Clinical Oncology's recommendations for integrating palliative care into oncology are commendable
"The year after beating cancer was harder for me than the year of treatment." Survivorship is tough and needs to be included in efforts to #MakeCancerLessShitty #SuppOnc #SurvOnc
I say this not to discourage cancer survivors but to equip them. The year after beating cancer was harder for me than the year of treatment. It’s a weird phenomenon. Regardless, God is good. @ThanksCancer
We want to #MakeCancerLessShitty for everyone! We want to hear from all individuals as they share their stories. We want to reduce toxicities, improve access to supportive care, and protect quality of life for everyone. We're also on Instagram, Threads, FB, and now BlueSky!
If #scanxiety had a soundtrack! Thank you @GitteJoergensen - so very relatable #MakeCancerLessShitty (And we hope good results come quickly!)
#MakeCancerLessShitty @CancerSuckLess 👇👇👇👇👇 ✨Heated blankets ❤️🙏
Little things that make the cancer experience better: 👉 Those free soft hats donated to the cancer center 👉 Dozens of survivors whose names I’ll never remember who answered all my questions 👉 Friendly front desk people 👇👇👇
