Welcome to the new GRACE site!

Here we hope to provide a new and friendly place for our community members, that goes beyond what our old forum did.  Our amazing faculty is building and we would like to continue to share their knowledge with others, to provide a place for those dealing with more types of cancers, including Lung.

Share our forum with others, and please consider this a safe place to discuss and ask questions about living with cancer.  

Operations Director for GRACE. Have worked with cancerGRACE.org since July 2009.  Became involved as a caregiver to my best friend, and quickly came to see that GRACE is filling a need in the area of cancer education.

Formas de hacer frente a las consecuencias del cuidado de otras personas

 


En esta sección, analizamos posibles medidas que podemos tomar para apoyarnos en las luchas que supone ser cuidador.

 

Tomarse un descanso/ Encontrar el "tiempo para mí"

 

Cuidar de alguien parece una ocupación a tiempo completo, pero no tiene por qué serlo. Cuidar de uno mismo nos prepara para desempeñar mejor nuestro papel.

El apoyo y el cuidador

 


Cuidando a un cuidador

Cuando llegan los informes de las pruebas y la creciente expectación confirma los peores temores con un diagnóstico de cáncer, sin duda a quien más afecta es al individuo. Sin embargo, sus ondas son de gran alcance; lo compartimos con nuestros padres, familiares, parejas, hijos o amigos, y casi cualquier persona en la que podamos confiar en busca de apoyo. 

 

Oligoptogression with Alecensa

Hi, my mother was diagnosed with stage IV adenocarcinoma with brain metastases 15 months ago. After all the analyses, it was determined that he has a mutation for which he is suitable to take Alecensa-Alectinib. After the initial use, her condition improved drastically. An intermediate CT scan from more than a month ago shows progression at one point, in the primary tumor. Head metastases are smaller. So, oligoprogression is at one point. We are a little disappointed because we read that Alecensa works for up to 37 months.
