Merry Christmas!

I've been trying to write  blog post for the past week but never seem to have the time or energy (or enthusiasm) to do it.  It's not that I don't want to, I just don't feel like getting on a computer at the end of the day after work.  I'm actually typing this today while at work!  Bad...

I wanted to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!

I have a blood draw in early January to check my CgA and pancreastatin.  It's been six months. Depending on those results, we'll decide whether to do a scan or not.  I don't expect my levels to have changed, or if they have, not by much.  I have no symptoms to speak of.  My one concern is that we know these tumors don't usually spew out their hormones that show up in these tests until it's in your liver (usually, depending on the primary tumor site--lung & ovarian tumors are a few of the exceptions) but what if I have tumors outside my liver?  Do we just not worry about those?  I think not but that's the feeling I get (sometimes) from my oncologist.  He did say once that anything else that shows up is going to be so small so what would you do about it?  Cut it out!

These are just the thoughts that stumble go through my mind.  I meet with him in February.

This isn't turning out to be a very positive Christmas post...

I had a moment.  I wanted to add this fantastic post on CURE magazine by one of my favorite bloggers, Tori Tomalia.  A young mother of 3 with Stage IV lung cancer.

It's the best "recipe" ever!  Thanks Tori!

Blessings all!

  3. I wish we could get the Ga68 scan in the US without it being part of a "trial". Not available here yet at all... I'll be keeping good thoughts coming your way for great scan results! I'm due for blood work next week. Results will determine whether to get a CT scan. I'm not expecting anything to be out of the ordinary. Still feeling good!

I contacted him and told him my problem he told me that I should not worry that my sister cancer will be cure, he told me that there is a medicine that he is going to give me that I will cook it and give it to my sister to drink for one week, so I ask how can I receive the cure that I am in USA, he told me That I will pay for the delivery service. The courier service can transport it to me so he told me the amount I will pay, so my dad paid for the delivery fee. two days later I receive the cure from the courier service so I used it as the herbal man instructed me to, before the week complete my sister cancer was healed and it was like a dream to me not knowing that it was physical I and my family were very happy about the miracle of Doctor so my dad wanted to pay him 5 million us dollars the herbal man did not accept the offer from my dad, but I don't know why he didn't accept the offer, he only say that I should tell the world about him and his miracle he perform so am now here to tell the world about him if you or your relative is having any kind of disease that you can't get from the hospital please contact dr.sakuraspellalter@gmail.com or whats app him +2348110114739  you can follow him up on Instagram @herbalist_sakura for the cure, he will help you out with the problem.
