Agree with the speculation around Nplate - was chatting with my bro about that yesterday. Just had a friend who had a blood cancer, and one of the issues was low platelets. This was how he was diagnosed with AML. Low platelets can cause internal hemorrhaging...cancers cause low platelets...there as been a >6sigma rise in cancers since …

God bless you, Angela, for doing home hospice --we did it for my mom from Feb.-March 14 when she died (and thank God for the oncologist who told us NOT to do chemo!). Hard as it is, I will always be so grateful for the time with her (we went through all of her photos! And memories!). I miss her so much. Prayers for a peaceful and merciful death for your mom. And comfort for you and your family.
Angela, I’m so sorry about your mom ♥️. I lost my mom to lung/brain cancer 22 years ago when she was only 68. She bravely chose to face her mortality head on and forgo the brutal pharmaceutical “treatments”, as well, that were not going to prolong her life, but rather only prolong her death.
We had almost a year with her before she succumbed which included so many wonderful and meaningful conversations and just “time together”. Bless your hearts for caring for your mom in her last days. Prayers for a smooth and peaceful transition for your mom and the healing of your heart in the aftermath. I was only 36 when my mom died and I didn’t know how to live without her, but I didn’t have a choice. We simply learn how to live without them. ♥️

My mom has stomach cancer, is not having 'treatments', is in hospice and has high platelets. However, her hemoglobin is low due to tumor bleed.
I suspect different cancers react differently?
So sorry about your mom, Angela.♥️
Thank you. She is in home hospice with me and my husband. She will be 88 in a few days. It is a blessing but also surreal waiting for the day.
So grateful for the honesty of her gastro and pcp to not put her through the recommended by oncologist radiation therapy.

Yes! My mother loved going through photos during her last few months!
