Like and save for later

Nervous shopper. In 2019 I was diagnosed with terminal cancer, and was in Hospice by August. I was 60 pounds, had only one functioning lung, and hadn’t eaten in a month it stood/walked in 5 months. I was given 3 days to live, so I had my husband carry me to a different city and hospital. 3 months later (4 doses of immunotherapy) later I was and remain cancer free. I now work with other end stage cancer patients to save their lives, and get better more curative treatments than the palliative that’s the norm. I have a book coming out later in 2024, and have just started a job with a pharmaceutical company to teach their doctors and researchers the innovative (chemo/radiotherapy free) treatments I’ve studied the past 5 years. But sometimes I still remember what it was like when I was dying and no one tried to stop it. That’s when I buy stuff 😂

inpurplesworld @alioope I’m not sure what hoodie you mean or if you’re in the right place, but I’m not looking to do trades, thanks though!

alwayz_rocking Swnding prayers ur way! 🥰 My mother also had stage 4 lung cancer. Squamous cell in the right lower lobe of her lung & nodes. Her prognosis was poor tho she wanted to fight it! She had her right lower lobe and nodes removed with radiation tx. to follow. Forty years later, my mother is still with us and has been in remission ever since! Fight your fight!My mom is living proof that it can be beaten! Bc of my mom I became a respiratory therapist 25 years and I love to share her story.

inpurplesworld @salperovich thanks for sharing! I had my first scan this week after stoping Keytruda and I’m still #NED. In August my story (comas! Death sentences! Doctors who have up and sent me to Hospice!) will be the cover story of advanced lung cancer magazine. I’m more impressed you’re an RT! Times in the past if have given my soul for an RT, but with Covid.. none to be found. So I’ve done it the hard way. AKA Live and learn 💛🙂

desertpanther Aww girl love your new cover photo!😍😎🥳

inpurplesworld @desertpanther thanks! But I’d it really me!? 🤣🤣🤔😳

alwayz_rocking @inpurplesworld Wait, you got COVID while with ca?

Jun 25Reply

alwayz_rocking @inpurplesworld so Keytruda helped? It put you in remission? That’s fantastic. You had your first clean scan? Tell me all about it.

Jun 25Reply

inpurplesworld @salperovich oh no! I never had Covid, I meant all RT’s are working Covid lung it seems.

Jun 25Reply

alwayz_rocking @inpurplesworld also, you look very young.

Jun 25Reply

inpurplesworld @salperovich Keytruda saved my life. Plain and simple. You can catch a bit of my story on my Instagram: mancini_horan

Jun 25Reply

inpurplesworld @salperovich Aw thanks! I’m 48.

Jun 25Reply

alwayz_rocking @inpurplesworld Phew! I was going to say, wow! Yes, we have been very sadly busy with COVID. I’m so glad the worse part is over, and a vaccine is here. I wish everyone would get vaccinated. If people were to see what RT’s and other healthcare workers did, they wouldn’t think twice about getting vaccinated; I promise you that. It was a nightmare. Covid is such a monster!

Jun 25Reply

alwayz_rocking Lastly, as an RRT, it is my professional opinion to say that since you kicked stage 4 cancer’s ass, you are allowed to do all the nervous shopping and compulsive selling you want, girl! There's not a doubt in my mind that you have been thru hell and back, so you deserve to pamper yourself!! Go for it!

Jun 25Reply

alwayz_rocking P.S. You must write a book bc you have a fantastic story to tell! I know other patients could greatly benefit from hearing your success story; I'm a firm believer that fighting dramatically increases the chances of survival even when the odds are against you. I've seen unbelievable triumphs even tho the textbooks told us differently. Doctors aren't always right. My mother is living proof, and so are you. The fighters survive. God always sees to it!

inpurplesworld @salperovich I had a trach because I had a tumor grow out of my right main bronchi over my trachea and it suffocated me, so I was put in an induced coma with a baby intubation tube snaked around it into one lung. Waking like that, a vent hooked to a trach… I understand breathing problems. At the time I also had a +7cm tumor crushing all 3 right lobes. Not being able to breathe sucks, and people risking Covid are freaking insane. Even if there’s just a *maybe*, it is not worth it.

Jun 25Reply

inpurplesworld I got lucky, and my lungs are fine now. The Breather helped me out immensely. I just figured out how to fix things as I went along. Me and Google 😂. Maybe a book someday… I just refused to do promo and commercials for my cancer center because I believe they are compromising care (cut backs) to save $$ cause they had Covid and a random ware payout 🙄

Jun 25Reply

inpurplesworld But it gets me a meeting with the CEO. They want my story. I don’t ever want to see someone told they were going to die as many times as I was ever again. Patient advocate seems to be my calling now. I’m married to a musician. Ergo why I can’t shop as much as I want… broke AF 🤣

Jun 25Reply

alwayz_rocking @inpurplesworld, so they trach’d you and also slid a tube into the Right Lung? Did they run two ventilators, or was the trach put in to provide you with an airway, and the box they placed in the right stem was to offer a different volume amount? If I'm getting too technical, please say so. It's just that not every day I hear stories like this; I greatly appreciate you sharing yours with me. You are a medical marvel.

Jun 25Reply

inpurplesworld @salperovich the tube went into the left (good) lung. I was put in an induced coma for 9 days so I wouldn’t move, if that tube got jostled I was gone. The small tube was my only air, so at first there was cryosurgery to try to chunk off the tumor, then brachytherapy, then my favorite - the cyber knife 😂

Jun 25Reply

inpurplesworld I was also getting highlights dose radiation in conjunction. The trach was put in around day 4 on the coma to save my vocal cords. Very touch and go time I’ve heard. 3 days after they woke me that tumor was gone. And they told me I had 3 days to live if I didn’t have surgery to remove a bowel blockage .. which was a cancerous polyp that .. blew up.

Jun 25Reply

inpurplesworld I had the surgery, got a peg but not a colostomy bag because they read the scan wrong not realizing I had no fat pad …and the next day another blew up. Then everyone… disappeared. Sort of left for dead in an icu. And I was given 2 weeks. So I came up with a plan. Hospice. I called hospice to save my life. Man. It IS a good story 😂

alwayz_rocking @inpurplesworld. Married to a musician huh? Cool. I actually play the drums. Just a hobby tho. Gotta say, not in a million years would I’ve ever thought that when I was shopping your closet and making up my bundle , id also be getting to hear such an incredible success story too? Especially since I never read bios! I just had to see who the chick was that had such badass clothes!

Jun 25Reply

inpurplesworld @salperovich husband is solo bass/singer. Mostly teaching now. He was my nurse through all this. Learned to empty bedpans, clean trach, clean a PICC line, empty/fill a peg. He’s my dude. Clothes have always been a passion. When we lived out west I used to paint murals in boutiques for clothes 😂 it was a reckoning to be 60 pounds, then back to 98, and then be stunned to watch it sail past until not even my underwear fit (doubled my weight in about 4 months).

ambronie @inpurplesworld Hi. I just read your bio and wanted to send a message to say what an ordeal you have been thru. My gosh. I loved how open and honest your short bio was. I hope and wish that all the challenges have faced and over come, that shopping is the only thing you are reluctant about! I hope you take this world and life by the balls and do good things. Best wishes to ya girl for a smooth sailing here on out.

inpurplesworld @ambronie Aw, thanks! I was just baking a cake to celebrate that 2 years ago today I went into hospice… which likely doesn’t make sense but it was my first step to surviving (running away from the hospital 😂). These days I find myself doing consulting work with hospitals and drug companies. Life, if you do it to the fullest, can be extremely weird!

milksteak_ WOW what a positive change you are for the world! I’m so glad you’re here! And alive! 😇 It’s awful what some doctors and hospitals can put people through sometimes. I have dealt with some deaths and it’s hard. I’m so glad you’re making a difference!

Aug 13Reply

inpurplesworld @milksteak1 thanks! Next week I’m filming a documentary and I have a book coming out soon. All this is to say - rapid wardrobe turnovers 😂

Aug 13Reply

milksteak_ @inpurplesworld I think you need some new boots and a jacket for this documentary. ;)

Aug 13Reply

inpurplesworld @milksteak1 still a bit warm for that! I got your kimono shipped off, sorry it’s a messy packing job but I wanted to get it out today, and if I made my husband wait longer it’s likely he’d have exploded. 🙄
