    Wrong in every way. I don't agree with this at all. Especially if you know full well there's a bad genes in the family but you decided to have children anyway. It's like ppl complaining about women shouldn't have kids at a certain age because there's more chance of a birth defect, but they go and do it anyways. Love what you have, be greatful, and stop this n*zi experimental muck.

    Biologics. Not a cure for any diseases, but do keep the disease at bay. It's there but isn't growing or spreading. As long as you take tge injections or tablets probably injections,you can make it Hopefully. I have a rare cancer, Leiomyosarcoma. It's bad. Just keeps coming back from what i have read on it. I will see an oncologist next week. First thing i want to know is there a biologic for this cancer. I want it. Might even save me from loosing my foot. Biologics block pathways. If none are available, i will live what days i have left as best i can. Not going thru radiation loosing a foot then trying to heal from that. Then chemo after surgery. Only to go back in six months fir scans and find i have tumors everywhere. I've done my research. Not one has made it. So why put yourself thru all that. Best enjoy best you can at home, in your flower beds, an with family. Not layed up in a bed,can't walk cause you have no foot, people having to wait on you until you can do for yourself. Plus after surgery here cones the chemo. You know you're gonna feel like crap. If you're young, yes at least try. Last person i researched with what i have was a Dr.Forty in age married two young children. His story starts out exactly as mine. A small swelling in ankle, no pain. Butbas time went on an it grew you could see more what we called fliud. But after seeing Orthopedic Dr, MRI then another MRI with contrast, you know something is up. Especially wgen when the biopsy is done. A big shock. Who would have thought? Especially when even him being a Dr had never heard of it. Yes it's rare very rare. But tge number of cases are rising at alarming rates. Sadly i searched for him,his story was after the removal of his foot an all he was feeling optimistic. Until he went for six month scan. His lungs were full of tumors. He was actually doing a video like this one talking about a drug. A new one. I searched fir him on FB cause everyone has a FB page. I found it butbitvwas his wife and she had a photo of them bothbas her profile picture. I didn't have to scroll down far, he had passed. She wrote we just spent our last fathers day together. That was June 2022. His journet had started sometime in 2020. He spent a lit of his last days very sick. What can i say? I can't judge. I was so hoping to learn he was ok. But no, an i was sad. Not for myself but his friends and family. A Dr that could have helped many. Ok then there's me. I'm older a senior citizen. I get around great, garden love growing flowers and vegetables.Cook clean go shopping. Spend events with kids and the grandkids. Retired of course. My husband is still with me lot of health issues. I am his primary care taker. He can stillnwalj but not a great distance. I guess you could say I assist him in everyday living. Well i have a big decision to make next week. I will see the oncologist, if there's nothing new with really good results, that's it. No more traveling over 200 milesba day for nothing accomplished in the end. I will talk to my primary care giver about hospice. When pain comes the nurse can deliver, i will keep going until i can't. Then we all know how hospice works in the last days. My mind is set. I choose life, but quality over quantity. ❤

    I have EDS and I’m also Epileptic and I have dislocated my right shoulder so many times that it’s pathetic all just from cleaning a table at a Bowling alley. I have subluxation my right wrist from shampooing my hair in the shower 🚿. My Neurologist said that he thinks I have a Autonomic Nervous System Disorder which explains why I have been having my heart rate elevated, feeling lightheaded and nearly blacking out ( luckily my housekeepers cart was nearby the first time it happened and the other time it happened luckily the circuit breaker box was close to catch me. The third time I was at my second job and I was nearby the trash can that I roll around to collect the garbage in and haul it out to the trash bin outside. I’m a housekeeper.
