Re: Thoughts on drinking alcohol
I drank beaucoup wine before cancer, and lot's of rum & cokes. I suspect it was part of a jet set lifestyle that packed on the pounds and created a healthy environment for the cancer to grow.
I am on the wagon again - not because of cancer prevention, but to get my blood pressure low enough to avoid medication. Coffee will be on the chopping block next I suppose . . . sigh.
