Sickboy: Two Times The Cancer, Double The Strength: Stage 3C Breast Cancer & Lung Cancer
Description
Sometimes the scariest monsters aren't under your bed—they're hiding behind your ribs. At 31, Christine Elliott found herself staring at a suspicious divot in her breast that would launch her into a battle with not just one, but two formidable opponents. From being a naturopathic devotee to embracing chemotherapy, her journey challenges the false dichotomy between traditional and alternative medicine. Christine candidly shares her experience with stage 3C breast cancer, the terrifying five-month limbo of an unidentified lung mass, and the paradigm shift that transformed her approach to healing. From vitamin C therapies to becoming a human light bulb during hyperthermia treatments, Christine's story reminds us that sometimes the path to healing isn't about choosing sides—it's about embracing what works, even if it challenges everything you once believed.
