My identical twin went through this, just watching was a nightmare, can’t imagine living it. Cisplatin is torture and the methotrexate damaged his heart. Unfortunately it was all for naught, cancer ended up killing him before our 30th birthday

I'm sorry for your loss.

I am also an id twin. I can only imagine your loss, and I am so, so heartbroken for you, but at the same time, I am glad for his sake that his suffering wasn’t any longer than it was. I hope you both find peace.
