    You guys are so awesome!
    You guys are so awesome!
    It makes me tear up with all the love and support you all give. Thank you!!
    I'm sitting here at my computer at 12:15. Today was kind of stressful with several errands to do and a Dr. appt for my son thrown in there- we were 15 min. late & they actually wouldn't see us and told us come back 2 hrs later. NOT what I needed today! But it ended up fine. I'm packed and ready to go. I just needed some destress quiet time after everyone else was in bed. Hope you all have a great rest of the week & I think I will too!

    Hugs,
    Lisa

    You are an inspiration
    Lisa,

    I'm so sorry to hear that Folfiri and Avastin are not working for you either. I admire your proactive attitude and ability to have put together your treatment with Dr. Cantrell. I am not having much luck in finding a clinical trial (the ones that I am interested in are closed). So, I will either find an alternative treatment such as you have done, or start "backup chemo" as my second opinion onc referred to the cocktail of Gemzar, Zeloda and Avastin.

    I have read Suzanne Somers new book, "knockout, Interviews with Doctors Who Are Curing Cancer". I find myself overwhelmed by the different options. You have such clarity of thought and determination. I really admire your courage.

    Please keep us informed about your journey.

    Together in hope,
    Susan

    Hey Lisa!!
    I am soo sorry that Folfiri didn't work for you, it shrunk my tumors, but that's about it, now it's just "Stabilizing" for me, and I don't really want to stay on Maintenance Chemo either, I'm thinking of a trip to MD Anderson when I get my tax refund check back in a couple months may be coming for me as well, just to get that second opinion. You have the same problem as me to, getting rid of these darn liver tumors!!

    I hope you have a safe trip, and really hope this turns out to be a good thing! If it is, I'm on way there too LOL...I really want this to work for you, and can't wait to hear how this went!

    Get some nice relaxing time in as well, and will hear from you soon!!!

    Hugssss and lots of love,
    ~Donna

    Sending prayers and good thoughts...
    Hi Lisa,
    I don't post on here to often, but I do get a lot of information and encouragement from everybody's posts. I have definintely been following your posts on your new upcoming adventure with Dr. Cantrell. I just wanted to send good thoughts and prayers your way. I am praying like crazy for you that this treatment will get you in a place that brings you years of living the good life. I really admire you for taking action to do what is necessary to continue to be around for your family. Hope all your appts in Nashville go smoothly, and thanks so much for keeping us updated. Looking forward to hearing more from you!!
