There's two FoundMyFitness podcasts that positively impacted my life.

My first smoothie caused a physiological reaction and it lit up something in my brain. A while after drinking it I messaged a few friends to tell them that I value our friendship.

Sorry to hear your are going through this. Here are a few I have found interesting. I am not a doctor and by no means is any of this something I am suggesting. It's just interesting content on your topic. - Prof. Thomas Seyfried - 'Cancer as a Metabolic Disease: Implications for Novel Therapies' [LINK] - A New Cancer Strategy [LINK] - The MOST Important Cancer Prevention [LINK] - Antiangiogenic Therapy [LINK] - Sulforaphane and Its Effects on Cancer, Mortality, Aging, Brain and Behavior, Heart Disease & More [VIDEO] - Q&A with Dr. Jed Fahey on Sulforaphane, Moringa and Chemoprotection [An authoritative discussion!] [LINK] - [LINK] Also watch this site if your doctors run out of ideas. Look for newer and more targeted methods. [LINK] Some people that were written off by doctors had some success with prolonged fasting. Also important would be to get opinions by many doctors inside and outside of your medial group.
