Cure for Cancer? Try my
chiropractor…
During my treatment (for Breast cancer) I got
engaged to my boyfriend--now my husband. We were looking for an
apartment to move into after our marriage. Since I was still pretty
hairless, including not having eyebrows and eyelashes, I tried to be
upfront about my appearance. Good apartments that would take our dog
and cat were hard to come by and we wanted to make a good
impression. Unfortunately, one potential landlady took it upon
herself to second guess my surgeons and oncologist and insisted on
making me an appointment with her chiropractor because all those
other doctors were clearly hacks.
Needless to say we did not take the apartment and I did not go to
the appointment with her chiropractor. I was willing to overlook
well-meaning friends who suggested dubious alternative treatments
because I knew they meant well and were feeling helpless and were
trying to do something in the face of my diagnosis. I became a lot
meaner after this in dealing with strangers attempting to butt into
my doctoring.
