I have bad news ladies and I need your t's & p's.

After the great report that my cousin M received yesterday she was called back by her doctor and they asked her and her husband J to come in today.  They went in this morning and were met with some pretty sad knews.  After further review, the biopsy proved that she is inoperable.  The only option she has is Chemo that will add another two to three months onto her life expectancy.  She has been given two years.  They sent her home and told her their was nothing more that they could do.

We, as a family, are devistated.  At 35, she is just a year older than my brother.  My heart aches so badly and I cannot even get my brain to understand it all......for your continued thoughts and prayers, I thank you.

Re: I have bad news ladies and I need your t's & p's.

  • OH Karrey, I am so sorry. T&Ps a thousand times over to her and the family.

  • Oh my gosh, Karrey!!! That's horrible! I hope she goes for more opinions! T&P definitely going her/your/the families' way!... I am 39 and couldn't imagine being told what she was... wow.  I hope something is wrong with their assessment and she doesn't give up looking for another idea/thought/etc...
  • She has gone to every single doctor in the US possible.  From Johns Hopkins to Mayo. This is like the 30th opinion.  These people are the best of the best.......Sad
  • wow... soo sorry.  I still wouldn't give up-even if it meant stuff that was just in clinical trial.  Those are some really fab groups, though.  Will pray for a miracle here...

    Thank you honey.  We are praying for one too.  We aren't giving up but since she has seen almost everyone already....there is little direction left.  There are just so many things wrong with her GI that nothing is strong enough to make it.  But hey....miracles happen every day and thats what we keep reminding ourselves.
  • I agree with Lori.  DH has a friend going through inoperable cancer on his spine and at this point he has decided to find some clinical trials if possible.  There's nothing to lose and it could be good and give her some more time.

    Lots of T&Ps for her - I can't imagine how devastating it was to hear that.
