Re: abdominal mets

Hi Tonya, I also can not be any help in this area but I am so sorry that you have to go through this. It is very scary to be a cancer patient and you just never know what is around the corner. I try not to live in fear but it is very hard. I will be praying for you and I send you my best wishes, Mary L
