Congratulations Lisa. I'm so happy that things are going well for you.
DX 12/26/2018 @ 46 y.o. married no kids
Colo-rectal adenocarcinoma Stage IV (Liver, Spine, Lungs, Abdomen)
Occult spinal fracture of L1 (newly handicapped)
Kyphoplasty 2/2019
2/2019 Folfox (8)
3/2019 Radiation (Spine 10)
7/5/19 5-FU/Avastin (2)
Many supplements, which I think are ultimately helpful, but which result in a fair amount of gagging and fussing while hunched over the kitchen sink in the morning.
