Guys,


Back in November 2007 they finished 7 weeks of radiation and chemo to the neck/lungs. At the beginning of December we met with the doctors and he said the radiation has done a lot of good and bad lets give her a break.

When we met with them on the 14 of Jan, he said shes too weak, the CT scan shows growth in the lungs, neck(visiable now), tongue (not visiable to the human eye yet). He also said the chemo and cisplatin(sp?) didnt help...

He wants her to become stronger (we are meeting in Feb), so they could look at some treatment options, he said another round of chemo at this stage might make her even worse...

The 6 months he didnt tell her, I came back into the room after my mom left, and asked him about time frame and he said patients in her state where the chemo/drugs has had no effects we are looking at 6 months....

Now, like obviously the cancer is going to continue to grow because these guys aren;t doing anything. IF i cut myself and let myself bleed for 2 months im sure im not going to get any better right? Now is she weak because of the lung cancer? or is she weak because shes not getting enough nutrition?

I just want a second opinion, if the cancer in the lungs grew 10% in 3 weeks (according to the CT Scan/doc) then something should be done? .. Sitting around isnt going to do much?

give me some thoughts here guys, im just fishing
