Alright Dinah!!! Way to go! So happy to hear that the tumors are shrinking....25% is quite a bit, and I'm very glad for you! And the fact that you gained back 5lbs. is great!! Every little pound helps...and when a person has cancer, that's not always an easy thing to accomplish. It sounds like you are getting good care at the place you are going for treatment, and thank God for clinical trials too...they literally can be a lifesaver. May I ask what kind of cancer you have as far as the primary site? Was it diagnosed at a later stage? My husband's doc said he gives him a 40 - 60% chance of recovery from this, or as he put it "middle of the road". He told my husband that there is always a greater risk of recurrent cancer, even if this is treated successfully. It's so overwhelming at times. Anyways- good luck and continued success in your treatment - and let us know your progress, tell me when those tumors have gone down 50% or more!!! Take care.
