DH and I just left Cleveland clinic having spoken to a colon specialist.
She was optimistic although the MRI we had given the liver surgeon also Cleveland clinic want uploaded properly. She shared the same views as our local oncologist. 3 nodes probably are nothing given the extensive improvement in his liver albeit there's still to much disease to operate.
She didn't see a need to change chemo because typically the best results are seen after 3 months but she said DH is the exception his scans get better or have gotten better every 3 months. His body is reacting to three chemo positively.
And yet... She finds it unlikely we will get anymore drastic results and he could stay on chemo still his body can't do it. She was more than halt to suggest presenting his case the the board of surgeons to get other opinions including a director or liver transplants be present.
Christmas is a week a way and DH and myself aren't feeling very cheerful and I am desperately hiding on to the shreds of positive news I have left. I need uplifting I need real accounts of your struggles that you persevered through please... That's the best gift I found hope to get this season.
