Sorry to hear of your diagnosis. You are a very young lady and have much too look forward to. You posted that you will be continuing chemotherapy for life, that a very long and painful road. Like I told another Steemit user, the 'root' of your problem is your lifestyle and diet. Everyone is born with Cancer cell within their body and it's your diet, lifestyle and toxins accumulated from your environment that add to the growing and spreading of these Cancer cells. Do not be afraid, you will get the chance to continue and finish off your bucket list, dear. Let me tell you, Cancer is actually your body's defence mechanism. When you have Cancer cells that begin to grow and multiple, getting ready to spread, you body's defence, your immune system protects you by forming a wall around the Cancer cells, preventing them from escaping and spreading to other parts of your body. So when your surgeon cuts into the Cancer trying to get the Cancer out, he/she is in fact cutting through the protective casing that is preventing your Cancer from spreading.

Since your Cancer had spread already, the additional chemotherapy and radiation may actually be stopping your immune system from working to kick out the Cancer. Chemo & Radiation destroy the body's immune system, destroying your body's tools to help itself. If the theory of 'You Are What You Eat!' is true then to reverse your Cancer, one needs to 'correct' the mistakes that were made to the body by providing it with natural, organic (non GMO) foods [best eaten raw as cooking it will destroy the life energy of the food], lots of clean water (no chlorine or fluoride) is better, enjoy plenty of Sunshine (natural vitamin D that mega boosts your immune ~ 20 - 30 minutes per day without sunscreen), plenty of sleep ( try sleeping around 9:00 pm each night for no more than 8-9 hours: this helps your body repair itself as night ), take a walk each day, at least 20-25 minutes each time ( this will help regulate your body so that the blood gets pumping to wash out toxins from within ).

Without adequate vitamin and mineral supplements, a persons body can go hey wire . So add plenty of extra vitamins to your diet especially vitamin C.

Once Cancer cells spread due to Cancer treatments or the Cancer re-emerges, it's harder to treat. As I told Gary Wilson, chemotherapy and radiation only kills the Cancer daughter cells and 'not' the mother cell therefore, the chemo and radiate will put you in a remission type phase then these cells mutated by the radiation will morph into a secondary Cancer within a year, if you survive the initial Cancer treatments.

Many Cancer patients who have been thrown to the curb by their doctors and told that there is nothing more we can do for you and to just go home and die, have actually reverse their Cancer with natural alternative treatment and survived to tell about it. Many have even survive the very fatal pancreatic Cancer. If my friend Bonnie was told all the true options available to her, she would have survived, I'm sure of that.

You may be interested into the Budwig diet which has cured many patients.

Another is the Baking Soda and Molasses formula.

There is also the Apricot Kernel addition

Plus the very controversial Cannabis oil treatment

Also the high dosage vitamin C intravenous treatment

All are too many to name here just right now but experts have said that doing 'coffee enemas' are totally helpful in drawing out dead Cancer cells and toxins. You can check YouTube for that.

I must stress that I am not a doctor and my urge to help others in medical need stems from the death of a best friend.

Before starting on any new health regiment, please consult your doctor. If you feel your doctor is not looking out for your interest, look for another that has broader views and shares the same goals as you in getting your health back in order. There is a evergrowing branch of doctors adopting more natural treatment towards helping Cancer patients as a whole, body and mind, you probably know them as naturopaths or holistic doctors. You may want to seek one out if you find the need. Do not let any doctor bully you around. Remember, they work for you, not the other way around.

Oh, I almost forgot. Reduce or completely stop any sugar consumption except for fresh fruits as sugar actually feeds Cancer cells ( all chewing gum contains Asparatame, an artificial sweetener that damages the nerves in your brain, that should be avoided, too ). I hope my long bulb was a little help to you towards your reversing your Cancer. If you or any reader finds my comment helpful, please give me a 'vote up' or follow my account. Thanx. Chin up and have a nice day! Oh dear, I forgot to mention take time to inhale oxygen into your lungs, long deep breathes, this will get more oxygen into your body as Cancer cells can't survive is a fully oxygen rich environment. I wish you well, my dear, think positive (negative thought brings down your immune).
