Talking about Beth hurts. I get a huge lump in my throat and tear up. I learned so much from her and miss our talks & text #bcsm
Ian Pereira @IanJPereira
@UppityCancerP @IshwariaMD @stales Tough. I try to avoid "terminal" unless I have a clear sense of timeline. Hope exists - long term survivors? https://t.co/iFCrcVRIxr #bcsm
Alicia C. Staley @stales
RT @curliegirlie31: @stales @CultPerfectMoms I posted Beth’s last 2 blog posts on Facebook. Said THIS is what people need to be aware of. Never thought she’d be gone 2 was later #bcsm

#bcsm my sw says part of my anger is going through the stages of grief for my lost health. Easier to grieve for others

Don't laugh, but shattering my wrist six years post-dx stopped me from obsessing about recurrence. (Note: don't try this at home) #bcsm 😁😉
Darryle Pollack @DarryleP
I discovered mosaics to deal with loss. Breaking with hammer helps with anger; putting broken pieces together is resilience. #bcsm

@denniskeim Even a long walk helps sometimes, right? The hardest time to do it is when your depressed and/ or anxious. #bcsm

@rivereac Hospice provides bereavement care for family for atlst 12 months after death. I don't have personal experience w their services though #bcsm
Dennis Keim @denniskeim
@HillStirSci Exactly. #bcsm
Elissa Malcohn (is this thing on?) 🇺🇸 🇺🇦 @Elissa_Malcohn
@HillStirSci @denniskeim A walk or just sitting in nature and watching birds, squirrels, etc. Even five min. can make a difference. #bcsm
Kathy Gori @kathygori
@Elissa_Malcohn @catbrennan @stales That’s a great idea! #bcsm
Hillary (Stires) Andrews, PhD @HillStirSci
@Elissa_Malcohn @catbrennan @stales This is such a great idea. I really think it would help patients and caregivers alike. And show the true side of the pink. #bcsm
Stephanie Graff, MD, FACP, FASCO @DrSGraff
@denniskeim Meditation & Mindfulness apps can help anxiety. Have you tried anything like the Headspace app? #bcsm
Kathy Gori @kathygori
@denniskeim Same here I can go (and do) for miles when I’m stressed and worried #bcsm
Darryle Pollack @DarryleP
Thanks; I do workshops for cancer survivors. It helps everyone and zero artistic talent needed. #bcsm https://t.co/Xz1rP9jk9B

@HillStirSci @denniskeim #bcsm developing the habit of a morning walk helps a lot

@kathygori @catbrennan @stales @marylgorden That was my dilemma ... did I want to be the one to tell them, or let them live in ignorance. Really depends on your relation to them. #bcsm
Alicia C. Staley @stales
Any other advice for those grieving? #bcsm
Dennis Keim @denniskeim
@DrSGraff I did give the Headspace app a brief try. But the service seemed too pricey for me. Maybe I should be less cheap? :) #bcsm
Hillary (Stires) Andrews, PhD @HillStirSci
May I also suggest @noraborealis's podcast @ttfapodcast? I listen regularly - reminds me that people are resilient & we are not alone. #bcsm

@DarryleP @CultPerfectMoms @METUPorg I sometimes feel guilty I’m 24 years NED. Makes me want to do something. Thought @METUPorg was only for this with mets. #bcsm
Ishwaria Subbiah, MD MS FASCO @IshwariaMD
@IJohnPereira @UppityCancerP @stales Agreed. Terminal seems like you have a few days left. maybe "Life limiting"? Or not curable? #bcsm

Poor grief, fear & anger into MBC Advocacy with a sense of urgency. Let’s put a stop to the insanity. We need more treatments #bcsm #ForBeth
