Hello there

My brother, age 68 who never smoked, no alcohol is diagnosed with multiple liver metastases ( two small and one big spot on his liver) covering spleen but not infected, as per CT scan report his kidneys, lungs, bladder, prostate and all other organs are free and normal, doctor requested a biopsy and waiting for the results

Someone please share their experience and show me next step forward, all of us are shaken and traumatized

 

Really need help

    husband with mult. (10) liver mets and lungs mets

    Hi, my husband (age 62) was diagnosed last year, stage 4 colon CA with liver, lung and peritoneal mets last August.  He was not a candidate for liver resection because the tumors were spread out but did have a chemoembolization done twice (once to each lobe) this past April/May and we were told that all his liver tumors appear dead.  We are ecstatic and are now conentrating on his lung tumors.  We too were shaken and traumatized when we first got his diagnosis last year but have come to realize that amazing discoveries are being made every day and, per his doctor, he will be around for many years.  My husband has a terrific attitude, great support system, and great faith.  I believe you need all these things to not let this disease overtake you.  Good luck and prayers for your brother.

    Thank you so much for your prayers and response, having a positive response like yours gives us lots of hope and courage, yours is really an inspiring story,

    my brother had his first round of Kimo last week and a second round will be towards the end of this month, thereafter will know the results  how med is working on him,

    kindly let me know, where you doing some sort of other side treatments as well? some tell me to take green tea or papaya leaf tea etc. just not sure,  this thing works or just comforting comments from people.

    really appreciated, will pray for your husband as well.
