    Oh Patti I am so happy for you. I know you will have a good result and be on the right path to getting rid of those nasty tumors. I got a question though. What happens to these beads? If I read stuff on this correct they stay active for about two weeks but do they stay in the liver forever, are they eventually absorbed by the body, etc. Where are you having this done. Tina

    Well, that's very good news, Patti - so hoping you would qualify for this - it sounds very exciting and promising.

    I'll be on pins and needles until I hear from you.

    Hey Tina, from what I
    Hey Tina, from what I understand, the seeds are smaller than a grain of sand and they do become inactive after about 16 days. I think he told me they stay in the liver/tumors but cause no harm. (I think) I am so bad at remembering what the Dr.s say because I am usually in a state of fear when I'm talking to them. I do record the meetings for just this reason so, I would have to go back and listen to the recording to say 100%..I think I am right though. Patti

    Great News
    Patti I have read good things about this procedure. They used to do it at the hospital where my husband is going. They stopped not because it was not effective but because of the cost. Good luck. Best wishes Paula
