Before anyone jumps in: this isn’t about fear or perfection. ��It’s about reducing avoidable exposures and keeping my environment as clean as I realistically can, because when you’ve stared down cancer, you get VERY intentional about what becomes “normal” in your home�
Here’s my personal “hard no” list:�
1. Refined sugar 🍬�Not because sugar is “evil,” but because I don’t want it as a daily staple. If I want something sweet, I choose fruit, honey in small amounts, or dessert that’s actually worth it—on purpose�
2. Plastic cookware 🍳�Heat + plastic isn’t a combo I’m comfortable with. I stick to stainless steel, cast iron, or glass.�
3. Soda pop 🥤�Liquid sugar + additives with basically zero upside for me. Sparkling water + citrus wins.�
4. Seed oils 🧴�I avoid the ultra-processed oils (think “industrial oils”) and use options like extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or butter/ghee (if tolerated)�
5. Artificial sweeteners ⚠️�They can mess with cravings and don’t help me build real metabolic stability. I’d rather retrain my taste buds�
6. Conventional dairy 🥛�If I do dairy, I choose higher-quality sources and keep it minimal. For me, it’s a “quality and frequency” thing�
7. Processed meats 🌭�Deli meats, hot dogs, “mystery meats”… hard pass. I keep proteins simple and as close to whole food as possible�
8. Canned goods with BPA liners 🥫�I choose glass jars, carton options, or BPA-free cans when needed. Small swaps add up�
9. Generic bread (glyphosate concern) 🍞�If I’m doing bread, I choose better-sourced options or I just skip it. I don’t want bread as a daily default�
10. Common cleaning chemicals 🧽�If I wouldn’t want to breathe it, I don’t want it coating my counters. I use simpler alternatives (and open windows like it’s my job)�

NEVER DO THIS…

Hospitals are built for SPEED, not clarity. That pressure to decide immediately isn’t about your healing, it’s about keeping the system moving.

Life-altering decisions are rarely meant to be made while you’re in shock, under fluorescent lights, with fear doing the thinking.

You are NOT required to say yes in that room.

You are NOT being difficult by asking for time.

Leadership over your health begins when you slow the pace and create space to understand what’s actually being proposed.

As the CEO of your health, you must never make a decision in the hospital.

Take the information home.

You talk it through with your spouse, your family, or someone you trust. You weigh the pros and cons. You pray. You sleep on it. CEOs don’t make billion-dollar decisions under pressure, and neither should you.

One sentence changes the entire dynamic:

“Thank you, doctor. You’ve given us a lot to consider. We’ll follow up.”

No arguing.
No defending.
No fear-based urgency.

Just clarity and authority.

If you’re feeling pressured right now and don’t know how to slow the process without burning bridges, you’re not alone. Many of us have stood exactly where you are.

James Van Der Beek reminds us that despite paying millions of dollars in “health care” costs - he still died.

No one apologized.

They took every dollar he ever earned from television, movies, and theater and sold him snake oil that didnt heal him and didn’t prolong his life.

And they want YOU to have access to that same failed “health care” but at more affordable prices.

As if it worked.

Had he paid MILLIONS and received treatment that made him healthy and vibrant and cancer free…

Thats a strong argument!

But he’s not alive.
He’s dead.

He paid millions for their treatments and he’s dead Because their treatments don’t work.

They want you outraged that cancer treatment is “so expensive” while Pharma executives fly on private jets to their private islands…

They won’t mention how despite paying for all the meds - none of it worked.

None of it.

If James was alive and cancer free, I’d join the conversation about affordable cancer care. But that’s not what happened here:

He died within the year.

But instead of asking why MILLIONS in pharmaceutical treatments failed, we’re all supposed to be outraged at how much it cost.

Heres the point:

Billions in cancer research spent since 1977 when the “war on cancer” began.

Today we have more deaths per diagnosis AND more diagnosed cancer cases than ever before. We also have more billionaire pharma executives than ever before.

= We’re dying while they get richer.

They know it doesn’t work.
But it’s profitable.

May James’ passing remind us that their goal is NOT to heal cancer but to feed us affordable medications until we die.

Rest in peace Dawson.

Not every day is cancer free.

Some days it feels like cancer and the related side affects weigh on me like a 2 ton blanket.

I can’t move.
I can’t breathe.

My immune system cannot bounce back the way it used to. My ability to work and eat and run… it all stands behind the imaginary line of before cancer,

And after cancer.

No one teaches you how to live on after cancer free bc so few have done it (and the ones that did live in the wood somewhere). So just to simply live we must seek mentors and guides and figure out life again like children learning how to walk.

Is this ok?
Can I do that?
Will I survive this?

At least when I had cancer I knew the Enemy. I knew what to do and I just did it with my shoulder to the wheel.

But some of the days after cancer free are a complete mystery of pains, side affects, adverse reactions, and concerns you have to write down in your journal.

No one tells you that when you leave the hospital tho. You ring a bell and walk away as if your life isn’t changed forever.

You get a cancer free scan and you don’t talk again for 90 days. But your body is absolutely drained and must be rebuilt. No one told you how.

The habits and trauma that got you into cancer probably still need to be rooted out and worked on. But where? With you? No one tells you.

Ive learned that there is life after cancer free but it’s not a post-cancer life. Cancer is still the through line that connects the data points of your life and decision making.

Some days are heavier than others.

And that something you should expect in your after cancer free life. e

I was chasing the “one thing” that would save me.

The perfect treatment. The best protocol. The magic bullet.

And don’t get me wrong — I’m grateful for every doctor, every option, every tool that exists. But what truly changed the game in my terminal cancer journey wasn’t one treatment…

It was a realization that hit me like a ton of bricks:

Cancer didn’t show up in a vacuum. It grew in an environment.

And if my body’s terrain allowed cancer to grow, then my terrain had to become the place where cancer couldn’t thrive.

That’s when everything shifted from “What can they do to me?” to “What can I change within me?”

I started looking at my body like an ecosystem — not a battlefield.

Because the truth is, you can’t sustainably win a war against yourself.

So I focused on the fundamentals that shape terrain:

* Inflammation (turning down the fire)
* Blood sugar + insulin (stopping the constant growth signal)
* Sleep + stress hormones (getting out of survival mode)
* Gut health + immune function (repairing the foundation)
* Nutrient status + detox capacity (giving my cells what they need to function)

I began to ask different questions:

What am I eating that’s feeding the problem?
What am I doing daily that’s keeping my body stressed, inflamed, and depleted?
Where am I ignoring signals because I’m used to pushing through?

And little by little, the goal became clear:

Make my internal environment so strong, so stable, so supported… that cancer has a harder and harder time surviving in it.

That mindset gave me something I desperately needed in the darkest season of my life:

Agency.
Not false hope. Not denial. Not “good vibes only.”
Real, daily choices that stacked in my favor.
If you’re in this fight — or supporting someone who is — hear me:
You may not control every outcome… but you are not powerless.
Sometimes the biggest breakthrough isn’t a new treatment.
It’s transforming the terrain.
