Today is day 20 of not eating sweets but my resolve is fragile since I still think about going ahead and having them. Wine is an off again, on again thing, but I am totally addicted to bread. It's hard to get the will to stop. My husband's tests did not show any big cancer in other parts of his body which we are very grateful for but he still has aggressive Melanoma in his lymph. The problem in his stomach turned out to be an infection causing gastritis so he is on antibiotics for that. Coffee, alcohol, fat, and sugar just make it worse but he thinks if he takes his meds he can get away with poor food choices. The oncologist team had a meeting this week to discuss what to do about his cancer. They said there is no chemo, and that he cannot take the targeted treatment others use because of his heart failure. Before his testing the last 2 weeks (PET Scans and MRI) they said they hope to have surgery to remove the tumor, but he is leaning away from it. I cannot advise him at all because I haven't the faintest idea what is best for him, other than changing his way of living and eating. There are many alternative things like teas and juicing vegetables but he doesn't want things unless they taste good. He seems willing to do that about 50%, which probably is not enough, but may give him a little more time. Sugar feeds cancer, but since he still feels good he is not willing to make much change. This last week calmed down some with only 3 doctor appointments between the two of us, then also 3 for this coming week, 2 of which are for me. I am scheduled Tuesday to have a post put in for an implanted tooth which I'm not looking forward to since the bone was infected when I had the graft.
