Well, I didn't want to go into extreme detail about her illness, but her treatment is *not* chemo, it some other stuff. A cocktail of various things I can't spell. Even though it's stage 4, it isn't terminal - she could be living a normal life if she took care of herself. She was having what she thought were severe side effects from the treatments, but it turned out to be that she had gone vegan and stopped taking vitamins and started drinking Pepsi instead of water. She is not in pain and the only big problem is fatigue for a day or two after each monthly treatment.

If you ask her, she says she is doing everything she can to fight it and intends to live, but her actions contradict that. And she's not choosing quality of life, she's sabotaging her quality of life, doing things that make her feel worse.
