Today, I’m open-sourcing /fuck-cancer, an AI skill that helps patients and caregivers navigate cancer diagnosis and treatment and advocate for themselves and their loved ones. Here’s what patients and caregivers have told me since I shared my mom’s story: “You have to be a huge patient advocate. Ask questions and push for answers, biopsies, and proper testing.” “I need help navigating difficult conversations and advocating for myself.” “The volume of doctors, documents, and insurance paperwork can quickly become overwhelming.” I built the skill to help with these problems. It creates and updates a practical brief with five sections: 1. Patient and care-team information for easy reference during calls 2. What to do next, limited to three specific actions 3. What we know, separating confirmed facts from what remains unclear 4. Medical terms explained in plain English 5. A care log with recent updates and decisions It builds this brief from documents, and context you provide. When research is needed, it uses trusted sources such as the National Cancer Institute and the ClinicalTrials gov API. I use it with ChatGPT/Codex and Claude Code to prepare for conversations and research. It can save the brief locally as a Markdown file or update a shareable Google Doc so the whole family can work from the same information. 📌 Get the free, open-source skill here: https://github.com/petergyang/fuck-cancer/ If you find it useful, please ⭐ the repo and share it with someone going through this BS disease.
