Who this will help
On 10/12 my world changed. I had a stomachache and was sent to the emergency to get a CT scan. My appendix ruptured emergency surgery. On 10/18 we got the results that there was cancer and another tumor. I have another surgery on 11/17 to take half my colon out and remove the lymph nodes. 20 of the last 30 days I have been in the hospital. So many setbacks. Trying to heal to start chemo soon. Any help is greatly appreciated. It will be a long road. Stage 3 appendix cancer. They just found some lesions on my liver, we are waiting for those results.
Update:
I went to my oncologist today. They found more cancer in my liver and abdominal tissue. Its now stage 4. The good news its that its a stage 1 on how aggressive it is. They want me to the heal the next 4 weeks and hopefully start chemo 1/15. It will be more chemo drugs. Gonna lose my hair . I’m trying to stay strong. It will all be ok. I will fight this!! ❤️
Update:
It’s a new year and all my deductibles updated again. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Currently I am on Chemo pills and a bi-weekly immunotherapy infusion. They really don’t have anything left for me to try. They are hoping this keeps things at bay. Unfortunately my CEA number has doubled. I’m praying they have a clinical trial for me at UCSF. Honestly that is my only hope at this point. It’s getting tough to keep it together sometimes. I’m trying to be strong and hope a trial that I qualify for comes available. Thanks for all your support and prayers.
