  5. I haven't read this book yet (What Can I Do to Help - Deborah Hutton), but it looks interesting, written by a journalist who died friday of LC. Visit : http://www.whsmith.co.uk/whs/go.asp?isb ... 391&DB=220 and http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jh ... ortal.html

  14. Hi Fay, Really interesting message. I'm currently finishing my masters in linguistics. And I think what you are mentioning is about the « Whorf-Sapir Hypothesis » (= language defines the way a person behaves, so differences in language reflect the different views of different people). Anaïs
  15. That's nice ! My mother had also Iressa from a deceased patient (not much... only 32 pills). In Canada, Iressa is not approved by 'Santé Canada' (Health Canada). The deceased patient was on a clinical trial/study...
  16. My mother had a bad cough... She went to see her Dr, thinking it was bronchitis. He did an X-Ray and found a huge mass in her left lung. Two weeks later, she was dx with stage IV NSCLC with less than a year to live (a few more months with palliative chemotherapy).

  20. Hi, My mother also had radiotherapy for spinal lesions and she had nausea for 4-5 days. She took gravol and stemitil... Anaïs
  21. I remember this story... Sad news (
  22. Grief comes and goes. You won't look «ridiculous» because 8 months has passed. I think it's hard to estimate a «normal» grieving period by I have been told it could take 2 years. Don't hesitate to seek for help. In Montreal, the hospice offered a «Hope and Cope» service with a psychologist. Also, the funeral home did offer something similar. Anaïs
  23. Sad news Please accept my condolences... Anaïs
  24. I am also wondering how's Keith doing... Last time he posted was last fall and he had brain mets.
