Go for another opinion. Your Dad needs help with his pain. Radiation seems the standard course of action to the most painful areas. (palliation)
Glad you found us. We all want to help.

Very happy for Dad and all your family! Keep it up! This is such good news and gives more hope to all those going through the battle.
Thanks for telling us, Jen.

call it Magic Mouthwash, Mar. Everyone knows it by that name. ER, Docs, nurses, pharm., patients. We all call it magic mouthwash. If there's another name for it, I don't know what it is.

Mar,
the pharmacy mixed it up for me on the spot everytime I tried it.
(they weren't very good cooks either..tasted like shi_ and ruined any appetite I may have had)
I completely believe that she mentioned LC awareness month at your request. I just love that you are featured in Lungevity Book Au.
Keep up the great work, Sharon! Squeaky wheel gets the grease.

Hot Damn@!
I was drinking on Saturday...can't remember what and didn't know what for!
Now I do!
Happy Anniversary, Geri. This is monumental. So glad for you, gal.. I'm happy to report that I am racing to catch up to you! Congrats to Richard as well.
love,

No survivor plan. Just demands for payment. (not kidding either)
Out the door...
I saw an article written by a pathologist at Mayo. I will see if I can scrounge it up. It was extremely long and interesting (to me).
Here we are surviving this bugger! Oh if only there were more of us, huh?

Lilly,
Sorry for your rough week. Good advice so far. If you like ginger, ginger tea is supposed to be good to calm an upset tummy.
Hoping your PET is good and your next treatments go a bit better. I had almost the exact same treatment as you, Lilly. That was about 4 years ago. I felt yucky too. Put me on the couch. Do try very hard not to get dehydrated.

Still I continue to hope along with you that everything will turn out benign.
I know the waiting is hard. Try to divert your attention to a favorite, fun distraction.

geez Barb,
I am swearing a blue streak at your doctor...! Can you hear me from way over here! I am turning purple. What an a-hole.
Get a different doctor. What a creep.
You deserve better. Lookit all who continue to thrive with recurrences here. Fire that b*stard.
(sorry about the news on the scan)

Joanie.
You both are absolutely stunning. Should be on the cover of a bride's magazine. Perfect dresses, make-up, hair for both of you.
So happy that you are enjoying completely these treasures.
love,

Roger..
Getcher butt to the pub! I have a big feeling that folks will be wanting to buy you some celebratory drinks. (This is one of the best excuses for the sots to gather 'round)
Congrats on your fantastic check-up. Can't sound any better than what you heard!

Hi Jackie.
I went to the website to give them a little piece of my mind to help support your community in gaining better control over the lack of medical capabilities at your hospital.
The article link is in French. doux?
What can we do to help, Jackie?
It sounds as if the author of the article is asking for citizens to start to scream. Well, I would love to join in and scream on your behalf. I know how you have suffered for the little bit of care you have received. It's just not right that people need to postpone their medical treatments while jeopardizing their longterm health.
This is scary for Canadian citizens. I hope it does get resolved. Let me know how I can help.
