Maori... I am shocked and saddened at your news. I'll be thinking of you and know you'll be giving this fight everything you have.

I'm sure you know that cancers HATE sugar, so you have low carbing on your side.

Meanwhile, you'll be in my thoughts every day. {{{{{{hugs}}}}}}

Now that is simply unreal. Unreal and unfair. I guess you have a new challenge on your hands. I know you'll fight it with everything you've got. I wish you the best, my friend. Kick cancer in the butt -- just like you did with all those extra pounds you shed.

And this is exactly what you will do and do it so very well. What Rosebud said about sugar, you already follow a Ketogenic diet and that may help with this fight. If you ever want to read more about how the diet may impact cancer, PM your email. Maori

Oh, Maori, I am so sad to hear this news. I hope there is a treatment that will kick it to the curb. You have inspired so many with your determined transformation...you have many friends here. I wish you the very best outcome.

I'm so very sorry. This is really hits close to home as it was a series of blood clots and facing a high chance of cancer that motivated me to start this WOL. My heart goes out to you.

Maori, I'll say a prayer for you and I'll write your name on a prayer list tonight. We work inside our church offering a friend to people who need more consistent long term support like yourself. These folks are good at praying.

Maori,

I just read the news about your situation. I am SO SORRY to hear your diagnosis. It is SO unfair! I am sending you all the healing energy there is!

Have you looked at alternative therapies?

I wish you health.

Best,
jammie
