Chemotherapy takes its toll; the more you keep doing it, you lose your energy, and it gets more difficult to swallow.

Chemotherapy is an opponent in itself - simultaneously curing you and hurting you.

Chemotherapy isn't good for you. So when you feel bad, as I am feeling now, you think, 'Well that is a good thing because it's supposed to be poison. If it's making the tumor feel this queasy, then I'm OK with it.'

Chemotherapy is brutal. The goal is pretty much to kill everything in your body without killing you.

Chemotherapy is such a hard, hard kiss. Anything we can do to alleviate its side effects should be intelligently explored with an open mind.

Chemotherapy isn't easy. I felt very fortunate I wouldn't have to go through that.

Chemotherapy tests your sanity.

I'm sorry to say cancer can kill you, but it doesn't make you a better person.

You don't treat cancer - you fight it.

The cancer I had is not at all equal to other people's cancer. I've never had to have chemotherapy; I haven't had to have a mastectomy.
