Four websites I wish i had known about when my sister was diagnosed 2 years ago. She might not have made the fatal error of chemotherapy believing the false prediction made by doctors of how long it would give her, if she had it.
If any therapist made such a statement to a patient they would be 'crucified' by the medical profession and the press. Yet a doctor can tell you it might buy you 6 months or 3 months etc - no patient in that desperate state hears the 'might' they just hear the time - well it was a big lie!
Check out the websites. They give options and choice and hope - not false hope, just the 'while you are alive who knows what can happen when you make a change' kind of hope.
No guarantees or 'mights' coercing people into a truly poisonous route, just options.
