Prostate cancer that had mastisized to bones and liver

My Grandfather is 84 and was just diagnosed with Prostate cancer that has mastisized to his bones and liver. He is having radiation treatment done. We have been told that it is terminal but he refuses to get anymore test done to see how far the cancer progressed. I was just wondering if anyone has had any experience with this type of cancer that has spread to the liver and bones and knows how much time he may have left. I know that the life expectancey of prostate cancer can be a few years, but with the liver being affected im not 2 sure. Any insight would be very much appreciated. Thanks

I'm so sorry to hear this. My brother was dx with stage 4 colon cancer, and then it metastisized to the liver. I'm sorry, but once it hits the liver, progression is typically fast. My brother was only 42 when he lost his life, and he lived 5 months after it hit the liver.

Prayers to you, your family and your dear grandfather!

Ashley007 I'm very sorry to hear about your Grandfather, I once had prostate bone metastsis, I'm all right now, and I had no treatment bar some of the holistic anty cancer diet and protocols. that  cancer compass members like   skidan  uses, my advice is read though some of the pass prostate cancer post on this prostate cancer compass message board. I was once told my cancer was  terminal.  I feel doctors  should not have the  right to tell any patient that. as I'm find now. God bless both of you Ray Randall     

Ray,

Please tell us what do you do?I want to live !

After reading so many stories on this site I realise every case is different. I will share my story about my dad:

He was diagnosed with prostate cancer in January 2012. Doctors assured him it didnt spread to the bones or other organs.

In March they started with precautionary radiation treatment around the prostate area to prevent the cancer for spreading. He had 5 treatments after which he became ill very suddenly - mostly exhaustion and signs of depression. His doctor told him this is normal for cancer patients in the early stages of radiation.

Days went by and he started to have no appetite, yellowness of the skin appear and he lost weight rapidly.

On 10 April this year he was admitted to hospital as both he and my mom realised something is really wrong.

He was diagnosed on 12 April with advanced and aggressive liver cancer and died the morning of 15 April.

He didnt have much pain until his last day when they started with morphien treatment.

It was so suddenly and still a great shock for us all but at least I rest assure that he didnt have much pain. I have heard stories about liver cancer and the pain patients have to go through until the end.

hi, do you mean "encapsulated" ? I also believe in vitamin C,

this year I went to a mexican hospital for PC treatments with Hyperthermia, one additional treatment was to inject via IV,

250 Grams, yes Grams a week of vitamin C, dont know the results yet, Charles Tosi. www.charlestosi@verizon.net

Sorry charlestosi never did learned how to spell. I cant seem to  find your site www.charlestosi@verizon.net  Yeah it was  encapsulated Vitamin C.. with IV vitamin C you will do well on it. it changers and rasers the ph in the cell cancer cells.I profer encapsulated vitamin C the reasion for this is at  most time cancer cells are dividing But to do this  they need fats to build there outer membrain. the Cancer cell  takes in the  fat encapsulated vitamin C. The fat is striped off then  the vitamin C is release inside the cancer cell. When the cancer cell dos this a number of times it gets an over dose of vitamim C when this happens the cancer cell will  stop dividing.  Hyperthermia was a bit pain full for me. But it worked well on my prostrate bone matastasis

God bles you

Hi Charlies no to manny emails on here Sorry  Im also limited on how many links I can send you and what I can tell you and  yes it did work but back then 10 years ago my diet was very poor as I did not know it was sloyly killing me so when I got cancer I chasnge my diet but  I did not rely on this alone it was only part of what I did over four very long years of treatment.  at first it just involved  high dose of vitamin ABC and D, apricot pits, it was a very strick cancer fighting diet. soy milk, no sugar, so no cans of soda, and  no bread. And every bit of food I had  was researched and know to fight cancer I only had a food  if it was one of the many foods that help my immune system fight cancer. There are so many of these foods. All  help our immune system fight cancer.  like cabbage, soy milk, apricot pits  just to name a few, and  though I'm now in remission its taken me years to get this way. it all to do with restoring the balance You see our immune system can fight and kill off any cancer it comes across but if we are  haveing  high carbohydrates food every day all we doing  is feeding  our cancer.  to the point it will over whem our immune system. then the balance is tiped the cancer way. the thing is  we were only ever ment to live on complex carbohydrates foods. So the trick is to first  get the cancer under control and then keep it that way.  But this dos take time. One of the best two  things I come across was to have 16  Aprecot pits a day and 3 table spoons of encapulated vitamin C this has help so menny people and Im one of them. I remember years ago One of my doctors told me once that the problem with bone mets is that  blood has a low blood supply we can not get enough chemo in there to kill it off.  and the amount of radiation you would need would have killed me before it killed the cancer. HT hormoine treatment can also weaken bone cancer but it also wont kill all of it off.  this is were the Hyperthermia comes in.  it weekens the cancer enough so other cancer treatment can  kill it off.   problem is if just one cancer cell in the bone survive got to start all over again.  witch I had to do over and over again.  un till I felt it was working with out the other treatments I was on  back then I feel I would not have had a chance. this is very slow but at bess it will you alive a lot longer then the three month more survilal time I was told
