hey, so I’m in chemo, am gluten free and low egg and need ideas for high protein kind of ‘nibble’ meals (also low iron). I have little appetite and everything tastes funky. help?
followers, ideas? esp if you've been through chemo or know someone who has
Tumblr media
please ignore the "kick the craving" and "guilt-free" designation on these. they recently rebranded as a "diet food", but it used to say on the back that they were developed by a woman going through chemo who was craving a sweet treat with some protein. these are a really delicious little snack with some substantial nutrition to them.

Uff... I think I might have made a demon deal to do this one. The green and the pink on the grey are almost too 'right' and it's really messing with my head. The chemo fuzz/unreality, the fact that I really need new glasses, the Christmas stuff everywhere, the music, the fish fingers that I should be cooking - it's all a swirly mess around my drawing. I really need a decent night's sleep - but that will only be got (maybe) through more drugs.
I think I've looked into Dean’s eyes too long and studied the shadow and shape of his green-pink lips until I can't think straight...

And he’s not finished yet.

Y’all ever think about what could have happened to Dick after Chemo? Like the man was high key exposed, what if he got permanent damage? With what chemo was made of he could have gotten a lot of different kinds of cancer, radiation poisoning or literally so many other things. If we were still in that timeline we never really would have known if Dick was walking around with a latent disease that could have sprung up.
Im reading far too much into this, but it would be incredibly interesting to explore further.
Anybody know any fics like this??

Hello wonderful followers and non-followers who are seeing this post because someone reblogged it!
I absolutely hate doing this, but when I learned that if I take medical leave from my job it will be unpaid, I started a GoFundMe. The reason behind this is because I was recently diagnosed with Ewing Sarcoma. But what is Ewing Sarcoma, you may ask? Well, it's a rare type of cancer that affects bones and soft tissue, and typically affects children and adolescents (mean age of onset is 15-years-old). Needless to say, I am neither a child nor an adolescent. I am an adult, and have been an adult for several years now.
So what does that mean? Basically that this specific type of cancer was beyond super unexpected to my care team, and that I will need an aggressive form of chemotherapy to treat it.
Now, for those who know me, I have already had cancer and gone through chemotherapy in 2012, starting a month after I graduated high school. It was a different type of cancer, with a better success rate of remission. However, going through chemo then was absolutely terrible. I constantly felt terrible - both physically and emotionally. I noted the toll it was taking not only on me, but on those around me who cared for me.
Unfortunately, this time it's a more aggressive form of cancer, which means a more aggressive treatment regimen.
I'll be honest with you, I am absolutely scared. I'm scared about going through chemo (and possibly radiation) again. I'm scared about how this is going to affect my cats. I'm scared about how this is going to affect those around me who care for me and love me. I'm scared about probably losing my independence again. I'm scared about the probability of having to take unpaid medical leave. I'm scared about how I'm going to make it through this financially. I'm honestly scared that I won't survive.
So what am I asking of you?
I'm asking that you keep me in your wishes (and prayers, if you're religious). I'm asking for a potential donation to help me maintain financial stability throughout this coming year (but super not needed if you can't/don't want to). I'm asking you to reblog and share this post so it may reach more people. I'm asking you to take me seriously just this once, because I rarely ask others for help due to a need for hyper-independence (which I'm working on).
Essentially, what I'm asking from you is hope.
I know this diagnosis is affecting me, probably more than I do actually realize. I know I'm losing weight because the numbers keep going down and someone actually commented on it today; and I'm not intentionally losing weight. Would I like to in the long run? Sure. Do I want to lose weight due to the stress of having yet another diagnosis? Absolutely not. I'm always cold. I'm always on the verge of tears. It's constantly on my mind, even when I'm meeting with clients (I'm a therapist). I worry about how others are coping with this, and how I can help them potentially cope a little better. I'm so worried.
So, if you are able and willing, once again here is my GoFundMe link. The story of how I got to this point in my diagnosis is on there, and if you want more information you are more than welcome to reach out to me.
Even if you are unable to donate, I still want to thank you. Thank you for reading this post. Thank you for spending whatever time you did on this. Thank you for existing.
And because friendofthefellowshipsnerdblog told me to tag them in this post, they are being tagged and (hopefully) will see this.

I just wanna say that your art is absolutely beautiful. The moment I come across it my day brightens and it just makes me so happy. Its gorgeous.
I send my love and hope only the best for you. (Hope the chemo is going well. I don't know too much right now but im learning about it!)
❤️
Thank you. That really means a lot. It means more than I can say actually, because there's so much darkness in my life at the moment that being able to brighten someone else's day even through my own troubles says a lot about how life works - that it's not black or white or even one shade of grey at a time, but a marbled mix of every shade and colour. And it's always worth living.
Chemo is actually not going well. I mean, I have no idea whether it's actually doing anything in terms of fighting the cancer - I get to find that out next week, I think. But it's been pretty hellish in terms of symptoms so far - crippling headaches and dragging exhaustion and hopelessness like I've never known before, not to put too fine a point on it.
However, I want to say that chemo isn't always like that and anyone facing it shouldn't think they're necessarily going to have a really awful time.
I had one of the notoriously bad types a few years ago and, yes there were a few bad days and it had its negative effects, but mostly I just got on with my life and was as silly and happy as ever and that was the time I started writing fanfic and I was filled with the joy that that brought.
And I'm still hopeful that I can be the same on this type - I'm going to get them to give me a lower dose and ask what else I can do to minimise symptoms and maybe if no more cancer pops up and it shrinks or stays the same, maybe they'll do the microwaving thing again, which was just so straightforward and then you get to pretend it's all gone, never to return...
That's probably more information than you wanted. Oh well. I'm really glad you like my art and it's a positive thing in the world.

My mom is definitely getting chemo and she already is so tired from cancer she can barely function
What kind of things can I get or ask for to help make her more comfortable?
Or just any tips?
