Well, my mom has recently been dignosed with breast cancer, she is in the hospital right now for further tests if its fatal.

There is no cure for breast cancer but doctors have a theory if they surgicly remove my mom's breasts, she wouldn't have cancer. Just thinking about that is terrifying.

This is hitting me hard and since im religous im praying to god every single moment I breath. And my cousin is cutting himself about this(literly)

My dad, however, had herpies on his lips a week before mom got cancer, he is saying we have the "luck of satan"

I am deeply sad about this and I need advise and confort from my Hive family:)

Thanks

Omg dude... I don't exactly know how to explain my sorryness for you. I honestly hope that she gets better, and I think I might even pray for her. I don't know how it feels to lose a mom, but I know doesn't feel good. And if she can't get through it, just... please live on.

To tell you the truth, when I was in 4th grade, my mom got diagnosed with cancer that gave her a 0.12% chance of living (I am not kidding, it was seriously below 1%). I thank god all the time that she somehow got through it. And I just hope that you also get that kind of luck.

Shit dude, that sucks. I can't imagine living life without my mom, I hope she gets through it.

Still 40%? I hate to say it, but that sounds pretty grim.

Sacrimo, i know its a realy hard thing to have a parent with the cancer... but you must stay strong and hope! As long as she live, there's still a chance! never stop hoping in her. it may look stupid but most of doctor and scientific says that in out body, there are some cells that may cure anything. we just dont control them but still, it help a lot when you hope. it work same way with the fake pills... that the name alredy? well in french its "placebos" i just dont know the english word.

Stay strong on this situation and i hope that she will pass through it.

1) Learn to speak the English language properly.
2) "why do people bring there life problems onto a wc3 problem" this makes absolutely no sense to me. I'm assuming that you use the word 'problem' interchangeably with the word 'website'.
3) This is in fact a WarCraft III website, yes, but this is the Off-Topic section. As long as the post is not spam (see the rules, you could probably do with looking them over yourself) it is perfectly valid.

In conclusion, this post is perfectly legitimate. It's posted in the proper section, it is not a spam topic, and people often turn to the communities that they belong to online when seeking help when family and friends don't do it for them.

it may look stupid but most of doctor and scientific says that in out body, there are some cells that may cure anything. we just dont control them but still, it help a lot when you hope.

just as a note, we do not conciously control any of our cells, they are all effectively "automatic", we only control the organs and tissues these cells create. i think you mean stem cells which are found in the lower spine (mainly). these cells are unspecialised and could be used to regenerate any part of the body. unfourtunately they would not help to fight cancer (i dont think) because cancer is a disease of cell mutation. and advantage they could give would be to regenerate body parts if they have to be removed to get rid of the mutated cells, this would be especially useful in lung cancer. most modern research focuses around specialised drugs that "target" the mutated cells, because these cells are different from normal cells these drugs could be able to pick them out but not every cell. these drugs are very hard to develop however do to the complexity of cells in general.


it work same way with the fake pills... that the name alredy? well in french its "placebos" i just dont know the english word.


stem cells are not placebos. a placebos is a sub concious implementation of healing which promotes a genuine effect of healing due to mental well-ness. its reliability and effectiveness is debated. i personally think you can make someone fell better mentall but you cannot physically heal them at all with placebos. i am intrested in looking into more research on this so if i see any intresting articles i might make a new thread.

Jawvinitus. (Disease where you cannot eat, lasts 2 weeks, I lost 36 pounds).

i dont know if you are joking but i am fairly sure there is no disease called "Jawvinitus".

google agrees with me. perhaps you mean lockjaw(tetnus)?

anyways, not being able to eat for 2 weeks would be life risking, you would be on a drip. if you were on a drip you would not lose that much weight in 2 weeks. cancer is considerably worse than being on a drip, especially when cancer is so complicated and deadly it really doesnt even come close.

Ugh. Cancer sucks. I lost my dog AND my granfather in one month to it. Belive it or not, I actually care about this. Hang tough man. It might not be fatal.
