Interferon Treatment Finished…Baby on the way!

Day 100!

Today is Brandon’s 100th day of treatment! We celebrated with a Naturopathic Oncology Appointment at the Seattle Cancer Treatment and Wellness Center where we received some helpful guidance on symptom management from Dr. Gignac. Then over to Massage therapy where Brandon got his first official Manual Lymphatic Massage and lastly we attended a lecture provided by Fred Hutch Research Center on “Cancer Survivor Symptom Management” given by Dr. Mark Jensen. He covered how change in diet, increase in exercise, Cognitive-Behavior Therapy, and Self Hypnosis can improve your symptoms. It was a good day and we have more tools under our belt to help deal with the fatigue, insomnia, pain and stress this cancer has brought us. We are blessed to have so many great resources living here in the Northwest!
