I am genuinely happy for you good sir. Hoping for the best for Jaynee too.


I hope I get similar results in a few months.
I'm just a dude who still can't believe he had a resection and went through chemo (currently 13 years NED). Is this real life?

SkiFletch and SMR:

Thank you for your response to my message, I am new to this forum and can’t PM you or even reply to your PM. We have done extensive research on HIPEC and met with Dr. Skitzki once to discuss the surgery, but they want to wait until my husband is done with Folfox first. I was just wondering if you have any advice or insight regarding the surgery, your experience at Roswell and with Dr. Skitzki and recovery. We are definitely going through with the surgery, but I am so worried about all of the things that could go wrong.

Thank you

Just stopped by to check in, guess I'm a week late. But, congratulations nonetheless! When I finally got a complete scope done I couldn't believe how much easier the prep went without 40+ cubic centimeters of tumor in the way. And, the non locals don't understand the magic that is Mighty Taco!
