What are the best ways to fight cancer?

So, people diagnosed with cancer don't "fight" it. We undergo a specific treatment plan recommend by our medical team for our particular disease.

For example, I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Metastatic Breast Cancer 6 yrs ago. I did not have breast cancer previously. It had already spread to my bones when it was found. Metastatic disease is terminal so I will always be in treatment. Currently, my medications are working and my scans do not detect active cancer. At some point, my meds will stop working and I'll go on to something else. If you look at my pic, you'll see I look like anyone else. That's a recent picture.

If your question is how do you "prevent" cancer? That's a whole different animal. There are countless studies out there that will advise to eat a particular way, stay away from specific foods, never drink alcohol, drink coffee when the moon is full and exercise 20 mins a day every other week. (I'm kidding about the last two). You can do EVERYTHING "right" and one can still be diagnosed with cancer. Someone else can smoke 12 packs of cigarettes a day, drink bottles of vodka their whole life and NEVER get cancer. As long as you're breathing you're going to be at risk. IMO - live each day the way you want, eat & drink what you want in moderation. You cannot live your life in fear of "what if". In other words - eat the damn cupcake.

Finally, for the love of everything, don't use battle language. We don't fight cancer, we have an illness and were doing what needs to be done. And when someone dies, never EVER say they "lost their battle". It implies they gave up or didn't do enough to stay alive.

THAT'S the truth about cancer. Mine anyway.
