Donna, Brian, thanks for responding. We won't know for a few weeks if she is responding to the Cisplatin and 5-Fu. I have heard from others that their tumors did shrink considerably from chemo and another person on this board told me about Photodynamic/Foscan therapy for tumors and this sounds like a promising procedure for tumor treatment also. I appreciate your kind words and insight. It's one day at a time for all of us. Some better than others. I am optomistic that she will pull through this. Praying doesn't hurt either. She has a great attitiude about it and is very positive.
