I can understand that. They don't often encourage that option, do they, to just stop and enjoy the time you have. No one wants to admit defeat, and no one wants to be a lost cause, I guess. But saying no to more (possibly pointless) treatment seems like a mature decision. I'm not sure I could make it. If I have to do it again at least I know what I'm in for; I had a much harder time recovering from treatment than anyone ever suggested was possible. But I only spent about 6 months of my life in that state; not an entire year in just treatment, so I'm grateful. :)

Do you work with a variety of experimental cancer treatments? Do you know anything about epigenetic treatment? A guy in my cancer support group is investigating it, as chemo and radiation aren't working so well for him.
