We have no children, but I feel your pain and fright. He's had three cycles of chemo - paclitaxel and carboplatin- once every three weeks since his diagnosis. He has suffered from dehydration, anorexia and now plurel effusion - fluid back up in the lungs. No on has given us any hope until we talked with cancer centers of america. We hope that is our answer. You will be in our prayers.

This disease is the most evil of all cancers it seem to attack without warning leaving the doctors and medical profession with very little options for treatment, my husband 49 was also diagnosed on Oct 13th 2006, stage iv with spread to nodes and liver, he had not shown any symptoms until 2 weeks before he became unwell, he also suffered from dehydration, anorexia and fluid in his left lung, he passed from this world on the 21st December 2006, they also tried chemo unfortunately for us the treatment did not work. Keep hopeful, spend as much time as you can togeather, tell each other every possible minute how much you love each other. I understand your pain. God bless you.
