At last an advert with a more realistic portrayal of cancer patients, thank you @breastcancernow.bsky.social
Yes, we do feel awful, stressed, scared, anxious. Yes we might pretend we are okay, but we're not.

Loved meeting patient advocates and sharing shirts at the @cancercaremascc.bsky.social annual meeting last month in Seattle! Excited to learn from others on ways we can collectively #MakeCancerLessShitty

THIS! Oral mucositis is often overlooked and definitely under-addressed. Education about WHAT it is and HOW to alleviate would definitely help to #MakeCancerLessShitty

👕 Headed to ASCO? Come find me if you want a #MakeCancerLessShitty t-shirt! They’re soft, expressive, and mildly therapeutic. Like a hug… but with attitude. Limited supply—like everyone’s emotional bandwidth 💩 #ASCO2025 #SuppOnc #SurvOnc #CancerHumor #OncoSwag @cancersuckless.bsky.social

Excited that our team will be presenting at #MASCC25

Let’s make supportive care smarter, stronger, and more human 🧬 💪 💚

We ♥️ meeting new people who are doing amazing things to #MakeCancerLessShitty & we met plenty of fabulous humans at #ONS25 last week! We shared stories, chatted about impacts of side effects & discussed the need to improve access to quality supportive care! Looking forward to #AACR25 & #ASCO25 too!

Sure I’m happy and thankful. But cancer causes you to lose trust in your body. It takes that away from you, and you spend so much time getting it back. #Cansky

Stupid observations of cancer: Yes, I look healthy.
No, I don’t feel healthy.
Both can be true. Be kind.

Stupid observations of cancer: Not having the energy to do things you really love to do… sucks.

Today is Oral Mucositis (OM) Awareness Day. OM is an often unseen but painful side effect of cancer treatment where large patches of sores appear all over the mouth & sometimes throat. Current #SuppOnc often fails to meet patient needs

Cancer treatment effects continue to kick my arse 15 years later ☹️. #PelvicRadiationDisease #damncancer

@cancersuckless.bsky.social

Side effects and long-term effects of cancer treatment have long been minimized for those surviving cancer! The phrase "manageable & tolerable" is misleading. Just because a side effect doesn't land us in the hospital doesn't mean it's tolerable.

Possibly the least controversial opinion you’ll read on the Internet today.

#cansky

THIS.
There are the side effects that happen during treatment and then there are the side effects that "just keep on giving" 😑
We need to #MakeCancerLessShitty by improving the access to supportive care during treatment AND post-treatment survivorship support. #SuppOnc #SurvOnc #CanSky #OncSky

In order to #MakeCancerLessShitty, we need to support cancer research, not slash it.

Managing 13 pills daily, plus as-needed meds, can be overwhelming. I number each bottle’s lid and mark as-needed ones with a ring for clarity! How do you manage your meds? Share your tips! 💊✨ #makecancerlessshitty #ChronicIllnessLife #PillBoxOrganization

The trauma is real.

Happy 4 Year Cancerversary to me!
Cancer has taken a lot, but it’s also given me:
🏄 Surfing
🏔️ Hiking the Dolomites
⛵ Sailing in Santorini
🎤 Meeting Shania Twain (!!)
Grateful for every moment. Let’s keep making cancer less shitty. 🤍 #MakeCancerLessShitty

How often should you poo? The ideal poo is a 'type 3' or 'type 4' – cracked or smooth sausage – delivered once per day.

www.bbc.com/future/artic... unfortunately some of us don’t have that choice 💩 @cancersuckless.bsky.social #makecancerlessshitty

@cancersuckless.bsky.social helps us acknowledge the reality of treatment an cancer care together we and others can help put a focus on mental health especially PTSD that comes with cancer and treatments and living with cancer so that nobody has to think living with PTSD from cancer is acceptable

We concur!

#MakeCancerLessShitty #CanSky

Cancer treatments get approved on the basis of lengthening life but the QUALITY of that life is important. We need to #MakeCancerLessShitty with improved access to effective supportive care, personalized dosing, and affordable access to quality care. #CanSky #OncSky #OncoSky #hpm #SuppOnc

Oh my - we think this just needs to be shared, Tom

Cancer anxiety, the gift that keeps on giving 😑#MakeCancerLessShitty

Lost 15lbs in a day—who needs a gym when you’ve got gut-wrenching constipation and a toilet marathon? 💩 Shoutout to my iron meds for the extra challenge! #toiletgains #keepinitreal #makecancerlessshitty

The slowing or stopping of cancer research will NOT #MakeCancerLessShitty for anyone 🤬
We've seen tremendous progress with treatment efficacy & we are eager to focus on improving access to supportive care - let's not go backwards

"Life altering" for all and not just limited to an "event" for many.

Sharing the true reality of impacts, including those that persist long after treatment highlights that, as we prolong life, we need more attention to the QUALITY of life!
