Re: another HAI pump question and a short rant...

My husband Pete would not be here today if not for the Hai Pump, Dr. Kemeny and MSK. Local Doctors almost killed him. That was 10 years ago! Life is good, so happy that we found Dr. Kemeny, MSK and The Colon Club! Pete had the Pump removed not too long ago and now has been promoted to yearly scans! ...

Re: 10 years since diagnosed

Yay to Ray! Thanks for all you did for us!
Pete had his HAI out this year, beginning of the year.
2011 looked very bleak.....but we found this group, Dr Kemeny, Dr D’Angelica and asked ALOT of questions! Here’s to you Ray and all who are still in the fight. Don’t ever give up!!
