I’ve made the decision to take back my life and end the cancer treatments. The chemo is harming me more than helping me. I am not the same man I was, and I need to get what little bit of life back I can from this. I realize my life expectancy will be lessened dramatically, and it is a choice I choose to make. But, I refuse to go down further. I made this choice of my own decision, and it is something I need to do to get some normalcy back in my life. No more chemo. No port. I choose to live what life I have left and let God heal me if He so chooses. The chemo is just too much, too expensive to have the port, and too many bad side effects. I feel no longer human with the chemo. My decision is final and I pray you all understand and continue prayers and love for me and Mom.
This was not an easy decision. I have battled for two years and I have had victories and losses. But the chemo has handed me more losses than victories. I’ll be discussing my decision with my care team, but it is final.
Love you all.
