This heartbreak is completely understandable - religious and spiritual practices often provide comfort and connection, especially during challenging times. Many people in similar situations find meaningful ways to participate in Ramadan's spirit of reflection, gratitude, and community while honoring their body's current needs. The community here understands how cancer can affect the traditions that matter most to you, and your feelings about this are valid.

I don't know your circumstance so I don't want to be casually saying anything but isn't fasting good as it allows your body to kick into its natural cleaning protocol which should then be cleaning cancer sales as well?? Someone sent me straight on this please
