I want to say thank you for sharing your story. My dad has liver cancer. We just found out 4 days ago. They are just starting to eliminate possible places that it started. He is in stage four so he is beginning to get more and more tired and weak. if you have any advice for him to stay strong i would love it and so would her. He currently works on the bike 10 min two times a day and have been eating more small meals which really seems to be allowing hime to eat more in the day. We have a wonderful doctor who promised to fight till we wanted to stop. We have faith that God knows what he is doing, his plan is more than we could ever dream. Seeing that the both of you have made it this far really brightens my day. I have hope that he will be able to walk me down the isle , well when ever that day comes. If either of you have any tips please let me know. Its wonderful to see the both of you making it this far I hope the best for you and your families.

Whitney

Hi Dan,

I’ll get to your 31 months, no problem. It’s so good to here another person doing so well, it gives me so much hope.
Last time I left a message, I had just had a CT scan, stupidly 2 weeks before I was to see the doctor, did my mind go crazy, I wanted to start smoking again, I dreamt my tumours got bigger, almost got depressed, it was all I focused on.
When I visited my doctor, he said my results were good, I’d had another shrinkage, and he tugged at my hair and said “I don’t know why you still have hair”. I walked out of the room onto a cloud, all those awful feelings and urges gone, and I thought to myself, if I can puzzle him with my hair, maybe I can puzzle him with the lose of my cancer. I can dream.
Dan, what does stage IV mean. Is there a kinder chemo than the 2 you mentioned? And how come you lost so much weight, I’m the heaviest now than I have been in my whole life, I joined a gym 2 months ago, have only been once, I shall motivate myself to go now. I will go tomorrow before I come to work, last time I did it I was tired for 2 days, I suppose that could be because I’m unfit? Yep.

Gotta go,

Trish
