Good news
Linda is doing so well her treatments have been shortened by one week so next Friday is her last treatment. Also there will be no follow up treatment other than the anti-cancer pill she must take for 5 years.
I want to thank you all for your thoughts and prayers.
OK, a random thought;
Why does toilet paper need a commercial? Who's not buying it?

Great news Mario, I only hope the same will eventually apply to me. A filthy thing is cancer.

Wonderful news, Mario. It is unfortunate that most of us here are of the age that we have plenty of cancer stories to share. I'm glad yours is hopeful.

Great news.
Make sure she takes those pills for the entire 5 years.
My sister went through that, and there were times when she wanted to chuck the pills in the trash, but she took them anyway, and 5 years later she is clean.

Good news
Linda is doing so well her treatments have been shortened by one week so next Friday is her last treatment. Also there will be no follow up treatment other than the anti-cancer pill she must take for 5 years.
I want to thank you all for your thoughts and prayers.
My younger brother (43) was diagnosed with stage 4 Pancreatic/Liver Cancer in February. He was in really bad shape, jaundiced, unable to eat or drink and we thought he wouldn't make it out of the hospital then. Dr said minimum life expectancy was 90 days w/o treatment. He stayed about a week before they started him on an aggressive daily chemo out-patient treatment plan. He had his blood work done last week and the tumor on his liver is gone and the lemon sized one on his Pancreas has shrunk to less then 1/5th of it's original size. It has been very hard watching him suffer through this, but his report last week was the best news he has had so far. He is now taking a pill and is down to a single chemo treatment per month. He looks 100% better and is slowly getting his appetite back. I am thankful for the medicine and those who dedicate their lives to helping others, otherwise he wouldn't be with us today. Treatment has come a long ways, so hang in there and never give up. In my prayers, Trax
