Really powerful account of chemo side effects. The palliative care insight is huge, I've seen families wait way too long to bring them in and miss out on quality of life improvments. The IV fluids making such a dramatic difference in energy levels really underlines how critical hydration managment is. Would've been tough to push fasting in that situation, totally get why backing down happend given the circumstances.

I think I was like a lot of people in that I did not appreciate how important the palliative aspect is to cancer care. That is not an excuse but more a comment that I hope others can learn from.
