Thanks Judy, it is very comforting to receive responses from such caring
people. I hope you continue to do well and are able win your battle with cancer. I have never been told the stage of my mom’s cancer but I have to assume it was not in the earliest stage since it had advanced to her liver. She was told in the very beginning that her cancer was treatable but not curable. If she did nothing was given 1 yr - 1 1/2yrs. So she opted for surgery and chemo treatments and has had nothing but complications. My mom is going to the doctor today to determine if she will be strong enough to continue with chemo. I am not sure that she should. She has been so strong in trying to fight this horrible disease that she is willing to consider going through chemo
one more time. I believe that nutritional support is very important but the little but she manages to eat comes back up. The doctors are stumped as to why she keeps vomiting. Her medications have been changed many times. They did another CAT scan and did not find any obstruction. They have determined it is related to the cancer. It has been at least 3 weeks since she has had a chemo treatment and she continues to vomit daily. I have talked with a CTCA representative and one of the biggest problems is the ability to get her there. I
am also looking into Healing Touch Therapy and still hoping for that miracle. Best wishes Judy and thanks again. -Vicki
