Thank you Lee. Folfori kept me stable just over a year, and now I have a new mass protruding off my sigmoid stump and interfering with my ureter. I will have a Nephrostomy tube out in on Monday to alleviate the stress on my kidney until a stent can be done.
I don’t know what answers I’m seeking here, maybe just looking for hope. I’m scared things might progress quickly now.
Not sure any trial will buy me much time. It seems strange at 36 years old to wait and let cancer ravage my system in due course. I have no liver or lung involvement and Jan 31 will be 4 years from diagnosis.
Like everyone is like a cure so I too can live a long life.
