For me,I'm facing this now
I had very early stage overian cancer 3 yrs ago,I also was dealing with a bone desease that wound up with me being in a wheel chair for 9 mths as well
I spent 4 yrs in a chair,being poked proded medicated and operated on.

I have just found out I have 2 tumors,one in my neck,one under in my arm pit,this makes 5 tumors ive had.
,I havnt seen the doctor yet,but MY choice is no treatmeant,I would have a scan,but other than that,nothing more.That is my decision.

ATM,im very healthy,I eat well,just stopped smoking again,do a lot of exercise,weights and power walk 90 mins a day.

My wish,when I get sick,is I dont want to die here, I want to die in the States.

My carer lives over there now,and is doing ok and is happy to help me achieve this,I would rather go out with a bang than be sick for years then die,Ive seen it.............my ex had bowel cancer she was not sick until chemo,but oops she already had secondries in liver,so her last 2 yrs were spent sick and then died.

So he will come over and work out all the legal stuff,with a view of the last stages I come over and be with him,he is trans as is his partner,he is 32.

I just sell everything here and come and live over there,I am an athiest so Im not into funerals or shit like that.

when I was young I loved the song everybodys talkin,I wanted to get out of here and hitchike across the US.

I have found a lot of resistance from people,with platateudes and really dumping their fear on me,mainly I think it chalenges mortality and death has never frightened me.

For anyone surviving cancer,I think you notice more,like the light burns brighter and also I have lived one hell of a life,having being a socialist organiser from 19,ive done lots of amazing stuff,ive lived a good life.

My birth family is not my family,although finding out that my great g mother is first nation has had an impact,but only one of how we had to hide the shame of being black.

Im sorry,if this is in the wrong spot,I just saw it,and this is just happening.
ta for the space to go blahhhhhhhhhh
sorry bout the spelling
