Good News Husbands Stage IV2b tumor finally reduced

After 3 rounds of chemo and 28 radiation treatments, cancer still spread.  2 chemo treatments later 80% reduction in all areas and some areas are gone.  At first he had mets to most nodes, celiac axis, peritoneal and duodenal area, main tumor in esophagus and cancer in the rib.  Today no detection in ribs none in duodenal or peritoneal and most lymph nodes look good and main tumor shrunk 80 % in about 3 weeks.  He was on carbo/taxol but have been doing other alternative treatments along with it.  We are not homeopathic people by nature, but we are willing to try anything at this time since he was only originally given a few months.
