Donna, it is not too late for Pat yet. The treatment may work and give her a turnaround.
In Jan 2003 I was given 2 months to live. My liver was shutting down, it was covered in tumors, I was jaundiced, my skin was yellow, even the whites of my eyes were yellow. I was weak, and losing weight rapidly....20 pounds in 2 months.
My onc started me on Herceptin, Navelbine and Xeloda, and said if it did not work, there was not likely time to try anything else. My church annointed me, I was looking pretty close to passing on.
The treatment worked, and within a year I was back snow skiing 30 days a year, water-skiing, rock climbing and traveling.
I'm still hanging in there and currently showing no evidence of disease. Please keep us posted on how Pat does with her treatment. And remember, there's always hope!
