- 🎦 About This Video:
I "slept" 15 hours. Ok, so maybe it was more like 12 if you subtract all the times I woke up because of breathing issues or coughing or to go to the bathroom. The point is, I slept a LOT. Unfortunately, I think I slept TOO MUCH because now I'm more exhausted than I was before.
▶️ About This Channel:
I've always been a storyteller. I've written hundreds of short stories and multiple books, but I always sensed I was meant to share a different story.
MY story.
I wasn't sure what that was until I was diagnosed with STAGE 4 Alveolar Soft Part Sarcoma (a SUPER rare type of cancer for which there is NO CURE).
I decided to embrace my motto of Living Out Loud and started sharing my journey in vlog format.
This is my story. Real. Raw. Unfiltered.

I love that you wear the miraculous medal. Mary is a strong advocate.
Thanks 🙏. It's actually "Nuestra señora de Guadalupe". It was a gift from my wife.
@@LivingOutLoud-LWS4C I see. But still Mary. I love it either way.
Looks like your body is catching up on much needed rest. If your throat is sore/ scratched from the coughing , taking a warm drink of honey and lemon juice will soothe it. Just mix honey in slightly warm water with a squeeze of lemon. Manuka honey is best , it has healing properties.
Thanks for the suggestion 🙏. By the way, what's "Manuka honey"?
@@LivingOutLoud-LWS4C it is honey bees make from the nectar of flowers from the manuka bush found in New Zealand. It is known to have anti inflammatory and healing properties
Hi my friend , SO happy you are sleeping better , may not post for awhile as feeling very down and troubled and won’t bring negativity to your channel . Just know I’ll be watching and sending my love as always 💙
You look good today. I am glad you slept. If you go to bed earlier, maybe one of the times you wake up you could take the anti nausea med.
Thanks 🙏. I definitely needed it.
I’m sending you so much love and hugs 🫂
Bless you ❤ if it’s not one thing it’s another. Positive, healing prayers always xxx🥰🙏💪
I love it tomorrow. I hope it 😅will be better, even just a little bit more.
Thanks 🙏. Much appreciated.
Hope you have a good day xx
Thanks 🙏. I hope you have a good day too.
Correct me if I am wrong. Seems to me you are dealing with 4 major symptoms. Sleep issues, coughing, nausea and pain. If there is improvement in one, that is a start to progress. I hope you get enough sleep consistently every night.
At this point, there are so many symptoms/side effects I've lost count 🤣. But you're right. Improvement in any area is good news.
That is Life, not just with cancer but also without. One area of our lives might be going well e.g family/ relationships but another e.g work/ finance might not at the same time. However with Cancer it is of course a whole different ball game . Hopefully you will be able to eat better and stop throwing up soon too.
You're right. That's pretty much life in general.
You can get an app for your phone that analyzes your sleep behavior.
Don't you need a smart watch for that?

If you want to take advantage of chamomile's sleep-inducing benefits, it's recommended that you drink your chamomile tea for about 45 minutes before going to bed. This allows your body plenty of time to metabolize the chemical compounds that make chamomile an effective sleep aid.
What about melatonin? That might help too.
Thanks 🙏. Much appreciated.
@@Sunshine-zi4nqI tried a while back but it made no difference whatsoever. I guess I'm one of those people who don't respond to melatonin supplements.
Some progress then.happy You got to "check out" for that long. Body demands it. Yes.mixed results, but sleep still good.
Thanks 🙏.
Glad you got more sleep than of late
Chamomile before bed has properties in it that makes you sleep
Two tea bags in one cup and let it stew. It actually works
Thanks for the suggestion 🙏.
Getting there but please try cbd oil it will help
Thanks for the suggestion 🙏.
Do you manage to take short naps during the day too? Btw just a suggestion. Most of us arent Canadian so it might help to learn more about how your Healthcare system works. E.g what does your pivot Nurse do and does she call you everyday or do you call her when you need? Do you get any other support at home ? Can you apply for extra allowance for Transport to and from hospital ?
Naps only seem to make things worse as I always have breathing issues and increased coughing when I wake up.
Thanks for the suggestion 🙏. Much appreciated.
@@LivingOutLoud-LWS4C sorry to hear naps dont work out for you. Hope you sleep well every night soon.
Ça va aller!! Une journée a la fois.comme tu dis on contrôle rien.Ça marrive de saigner aussi surtout du nez avec les chimio cest pas sympa comme moment mais bon on fait avec.demain tu aura de meilleurs moments moi ce sera avec mon fils qui va bientôt me presenter sa petite amie et je supporterai les misères.
Félicitation pour l'introduction imminente. C'est excitant!
💙❤👍✌️
🙏🙏🙏
Did you throw up because of coughing or you were nauseous ?
I'm almost never nauseous. It's usually a result of intense coughing or brushing my teeth (which triggers my gag reflex much more than it normal would).
@@LivingOutLoud-LWS4C I was asking because I have the same problem when I get a more serious cold and I cough a lot or I choke because of coughing. It happens very fast if I eat 30 minutes before having a fit.
Dose it really matter ...
Does what really matter?
You try surviving on very little sleep , and it will matter to you too my friend 🤦🏻♀️
