      @@sillybears4673Per another video: In 2015, peeweetoms became very sick. His weight dropped unexpectedly from 85.7 kg (189 lbs) down to 60.3 kg (133 lbs). Others thought he was abusing something. Then, he found a very itchy lump on his back. He finally decided to see a doctor who diagnosed and treated this as shingles.
      Six months later, the lump turned extremely painful. He went back to the doctor who referred him to a plastic surgeon. The specialist said the mass needed to be removed immediately and wanted to do it the next day. Not being mentally prepared, peeweetoms pushed the surgery back an extra day.
      The lab determined the excised tissue was skin cancer. Two weeks later, he was scheduled for another visit in which the surgeon revealed the tumor was a sarcoma. The doctor thought the entire thing was removed successfully with good margins but warned this probably would return at some point. Until the full histology was completed, he possibly may have only a few months to live. Peeweetoms freaked out and decided to start taking care of himself and regain the excessive weight he had lost.
      When the histology analysis and report were finished, he was scheduled for another visit in which the surgeon revealed the tumor was actually a sarcomatoid carcinoma. It could not be cured. The only option was surgery. They would check him every three months. One year later, he discovered another lump on the scar from the prior year's surgery. Then, he had two surgeries to remove two masses. In 2017, his body was riddled with many tumors.

      Yeah, we are going up to visit next week, but she is trying to go to Germany to a cancer clinic because the fact that chemo is only 2-3% successful. Can't wrap my head around how doctors push it if they know its so ineffective....other than they get commission off selling it. But that's another rant lol. But she has to have the money up front to pay for the clinic in Germany, so we have set up a go fund me page but its not doing that well. Thanks again

      ilmememe it's actually an interesting statistic that fluctuates from 1 in 3 up to 1 in 2. When I made the video the latest stats where 1 in 2. Which is nuts considering the amount of people. But I guess a lot go undiagnosed.

    Human Genetics haven’t changed in over 10,000 years. It’s our lifestyle that causes cancer. Our ancestors weren’t eating the garbage we eat today. Which is also why they lived long healthier lives.
