    ....So sorry for your dx. My co workers brothers dr thought he had cancer of the eye and sent him to a specialist at sloan...it turned out to be something other than cancer! Sorry I don't have much else to offer, but just wanted you to no that I'm thinking of you and pray that this gets resolved quick and you get into remission.

    You may want to re--post this in the cancer-specific board so that you can receive replies from those familiar with the issues surrounding this particular disease. There is a forum for rare cancer, I believe, and you might try that one for best results.

    In any event, best wishes for a completely recovery. Cancer is not always a death sentence.

    Hope and Humor!

    Take care,
