Starting Cancer Treatment ~ What It’s Teaching Me Physically, Mentally + Emotionally 

I can relate to your experience. I have breast cancer. Like you, I'm at Scripps Torrey Pines. I've had 16 chemo infusion treatments overlooking beautiful Torrey Pines. It does help seeing that beautiful view. And the nurses are so nice, which also helps. I was always worried about getting a fever, but I was lucky... didn't get one. Sorry you did! I also didn't get a horrible rash like you did. That looks just awful! Hope it gets better soon. What an experience! I had a mastectomy last month. I'm still healing from that. I start radiation soon. I am also doing Immuno Therapy. That's the one that scares me most of all. The whole thing has really slowed me down. I started out doing exercise classes, but I had to give those up. I just wasn't strong enough to handle it. I still walk a little every day, but not that much, particularly after surgery. It's just not what my body can do right now. It'll come back, just not right now. I wish you all the best in your journey. You'll get through this! I found that the chemo wasn't that bad. It wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. The Zofran and Compazine were life savers. Just listen to your body and be smart about it. Don't overdo it. There will be time to push yourself after your done with treatment. Be gentle with yourself and save your strength. Rest! All the best, Joan B, Shooters Karaoke Friend

I was diagnosed with very aggressive prostate cancer out of nowhere. After deep meditation and reflection, I decided “how can this experience bring me to a better life”? A complete change for the better, including reestablishing my daily Yoga practice, has reset my mind and readied me for my radiation therapy. I will overcome and you will too!🙏🏽

Love and Light🙌🏽

You are incredibly strong!!!!

Recently diagnosed with endometrial cancer stage 3. Had abdominal hysterectomy . Waiting on insurance to approve chemotherapy treatment . I am scared , but putting my faith in God and Doctor's knowledge .

I recently discovered your channel -- your personality and philosophy resonate. I admire your joy and sense of adventure. Your approach of learning from the situation is so beautiful and opens you to awareness and possibilities. I offer support, thoughts and care to you as you go through the treatments -- and look forward to the treatments' success.

Hi Rajka, you have a great team around you. Keep moving forward on your path. We'll be singing for you.

So proud of you❤

Your joy for life comes through even as you’re describing your fear, sickness and sadness. You really are remarkable! Thank you for sharing with such honesty. That’s another genuine quality you have-courage. Courage to face this with everything you’ve got, courage to feel all the emotions you’re having and courage to share openly. Thank you!❤

You are my amazing, beautiful and wonderful friend. You inspire so many people and this video is not only helpful for you, but helpful for the people I have sent it to that are going through some similar struggles right now. You still help others and you even remind people to dress it up a little at the end of the video ❤ I am praying for you and I love you. I am always a phone call away. God bless you and your beautiful family.

Are you covid jabbed? Huge spike in cancers since vaxx rollout. I was diagnosed with C mid-October 2022. I'm not jabbed and refused any conventional treatment (including surgery). Over a year on am I'm doing really well. I took part in a voluntary survey for the Qld Cancer Alliance (in Australia) and apparently I'm the only one who took an alternative approach, & the only one doing well... I think that speaks volumes about the C industry!!

Love your videos, my husband about to get treatment for his FLL, was wondering why you didn’t get a port for all the treatments?

Are you or anyone you know going through something similar?

You are getting exactly same meds I did for cll. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Ive been treated in 2018, 6 yrs ago. Now it seems it's back. Bendamustine and rituxinab mild and effective. Mostly had headaches. You'll do fine. My hair only thinned out.
