I believe in alternative treatments, even though Western medicine doesn't.

My doctor will say it's not going to do anything.

And and so far, she'd be right, because I get a lot of feedback from people saying you should try this.

You should try this.

You should try this.

And and yeah.

My life is, I've been doing many of those treatments alongside of chemotherapy, which I think is why I had such an easy time with chemo.

It struck me how easy it was.

Through these last two years, I felt stronger and healthier in my body than I think I have since I was a teenager.

How is your partner?

We've been together for eight years, and I've always said that anxiety is a foreign language I have to translate for her.

She does not know how to worry.

She doesn't know how to worry.

It is irresponsible.

Like, what are you doing wasting your life not worrying?

And so she really hasn't worried much throughout these last two years.

She's like, it is not right in front of us right now that you were dying.

And also it's not right in front of us right now that you're suffering.

And because I wasn't, I wasn't suffering.

I'll tell you when I did suffer, when I got the common cold, people make t-shirts, people make t-shirts that say fuck cancer.
