To Al -
I can truly relate to all you just said and what Linda's doctors have said to her is almost word for word of what I have heard.
I am a 9 1/2 year survivor and also had mets to the liver. The mets stayed there for 3 years and we managed to keep them "stable". Finally got rid of that one and now have recurrence to a node behind the liver.
My doctors think I am "amazing" - and I am starting to think "how can I still be alive" after all of these recurrences/treatments. I know what you mean about starting to feel special.
But the fact is that "we" do have to look at our other options. I am constantly reading, asking questions, trying somehow to figure out how this monster is working inside of me, so that I can beat it at it's race. So I do believe there is something to being a "fighter".
Linda sounds like she is just that also and she is very lucky to have you by her side and doing all that you do.
My best to Linda and yourself. I enjoy reading all the info that you find for us Al. Keep it up. You make my job easier.
Take care - Irene
