I am blown over by the news. I think it might be too soon to give up. You seem so full of life and physically able to do so many things
I would get a second opinion and learn as much as I could about other medicines, other medical centers, other treatment options etc. Is there a possibility that you can come to the U. S. to see what else can be done to help you? Some medical centers in the U. S. offer inexpensive housing to patients coming from other areas and there are a couple companies that fly business people around that offer free transportation to cancer patients who fly to other areas for treatment.
There are interesting articles about all the new drugs and treatments in the latest issue of Cure.
You might want to check out the online version at www.curetoday.com
Have you had recent CEA, CA 27-29, CA 15-9 blood tumor marker tests or a Her2 serum test?
I will be thinking of you and wishing the best for you.
