Update on my sister

Hello ladies, I dont know if you remember me, but I used to come here and ask questions to you guys in regards to the treatement my sister was going thru.  She was diagnosed in April 2015 with stage 1A uternine cancer. She had the surgery in May 2015. It was less than 30 percent thru wall when she had the surgery. Total hysterectomy and nodes were tested and all were negative.  They reccommended ratiation becuase they thought it might be a grade 2 cancer, which was a little more aggressive than what they orginally had guessed.  So they did the radiation (internal) just to kill any cells that might have been left behind.  She finished the radiation without much discomfort and by July 2015 (just a few months after surgery) she was in New Hampshire vacationing with her husband and 2 teenage boys and about 5 of the kids' friends and she got bad stomach pains. She thought it was her appendix so went to ER in NH. They did a CT scan and told her she should go back to see her Oncologist.  The cancer had come back and was already in several different areas, 7 tumors in total. None were in her organs though. They started her on Carbo/taxol ...she did 3 rounds of it and then had a CT scan done....some had shrunk a little...some had not shrunk at all and now there was a couple in her liver.  They continued with the other 3 rounds of Carbo/taxol...then scanned again.  Same results...mixed results...nothing promising.  She then changed Drs.  Started seeing one in Boston...he put her on a different chemo.  I cant remember the name of it off the top of my head...it made her hair come back but gave her an awful rash.  After a couple rounds of it, her protein in her urine was too high.  They switched the chemo again.  After one round, she had some weird liver readings and he stopped the treatment, sent her to Dana Farber to seek a clinical trial.  She went there and heard about what they had to offer, and then consulted her Dr in Boston, he said in all honesty, at this point, its only about prolonging your life becuase they cancer is not curable anymore.  This was 1 year after being initially diagnosed and told that if she was ever going to get cancer this is the best one to have becuase it was very curable and since hers was stage 1A, she had a 95% chance or better of it never coming back.  The Dr in Boston had his own trial which was a pill....but she had to convince the company she was well enough to take it because it was very expensive and they didnt want to do if she was going to die anytime soon.  So she pulled herself together and convinced them and they told her they would mail it to her and she'd get it in 2 days.  That night she ended up in the ER again because she was so weak from not eating , pain etc.  The meds arrived at her house but her oncologist told her husband that she had to be home to start taking them, they couldnt administer it at the hospital...so she went home. She took it once but honeslty at that point, she was at the end....no longer eating, hospice had already come to put a bed in the living room, she was taking so much morphine for pain that she was barely awake at all.  Her breathing became more and more labored as people came by to see her while she laid sleeping.  A few days later, on mothers day, she died.  I honestly cant even believe Im writing this.  3 months later and its all still so surreal to me. She was only 45 years old..she has 2 teenage boys she left behind.  I cant seem to get my emotions in check..I cry everyday and I have sorrow for our family and her boys and husband...anger that God would do this...anger at the Drs, thinking maybe there was something more they couldve done....I'm just so so so so sad.  It's not fair. It wasnt supposed to be like this. 

I guess all I can say now is Thank you for all the times you guys answered my questions as I battled through this with her.  I felt useless then and useless now, but  you guys helped me as much as one can be helped in this situation.  My best advise is be proactive...dont let the Drs decide whats best for you...YOU decide whats best for you and if you dont think a dr is being aggressive enough, then find another.  And for the love of God, if anyone is showing any signs or symptoms of this monsterous disease, please get treatment asap!!!  God bless all of you!!    Stacey
