janetrn Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Hi I am new to this site and not sure if I am posting in the right spot. My name is Janet and my husband George age 53 was diagnosed with stage 4 with mets to liver on August 15, 2007. He had six cycles of taxol carbo and avastin, the last one on Jan 18. He just came home from the hospital, the avastin did damage to his kidneys. He was dehydrated and could not eat for about two weeks. We waited too long for the trip to the emergency room. H e came home yesterday and well we still have a long road ahead of us. I found this site because of some changes in the other site and it seems that all my friends do not chat anymore.

recce101 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Hi, Janet, welcome to the LCSC! I've been "over there" too with the same username, but my chemo brain has a much easier time here and at OncTalk. Glad you joined us. Best wishes and Aloha, Ned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barb73 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Hi There, Janet, I am very glad to "see" you here. Here I was in the process of dressing up the profile and checking back and forth to see if I was doing it correctly. So very glad George is home from the hospital. I hope he is feeling much better.

jaminkw Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Looks like I posted to Barbara on the wrong board. I told her she had red alerts out for her on the other site because she'd gone missing. Sound like they're emptying out into LCSC. Welcome Janet. Judy in Key West Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muriel Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Welcome Janet. Glad you've joined us. I fled from the "other" group long, long ago. I understand they've changed the site again.
