Subject: Why Doctors Dont do Everything Posssible
Date: 07/29/2004
My mom was recently diagnosed w/brain, lung, liver cancer. There were NO symptoms at all she is a smoker yet on he annual check ups no one ever did lung x-rays. After doing research there is a drug called naltrone there are NO side-effects it has helped aids/lung cancer patients in other countries, cost is so minimal only $38 per month.Her doctor wont write a prescription.

One day my mom was fine this is a total shock. She started speaking some words funny, was taken to the hospital, did an MRI went into the brain took a biopsy saw cancer-then a cat scan showed it came from the lung traveled to the liver. Chemo and radiation is her course of action.

This is so hard to even believe, my parents have too much living yet to do, my dad retired 4 years ago to have fun -they do everything together. I need to know there is hope I need to find a doctor that will at least write a prescription to give her hope. She looks great no one would ever know, she feels great!
