Clinical Trial bsi-201
Yahoo!! I have found the clinical trial in Cincy. I spoke to the intake nurse and all sounds promising. She will be talking to the research RN here in Springfield, to get all of my records faxed!! Please pray that this is my cure!!

OSU consult
OK we (my hubby and best friend) drove up to OSU as the snow is coming down constant. The roads are snow covered and scary.
We meet the DR and he seems OK, but has nothing encouraging to say. Basically no to every surgery option. "BUT, we do have this clinical trial that we are offering." Note it is in clinical phase I. "We have 3-4 women participating in it, and we found that 1 women was not responding to it at all." -----OK then after all of that I would be a fool to jump on board. So I started researching other TNBC mets clinical trials. I come across the bsi-201 and it sounds as if it is having some great outcomes. Tumors are shrinking!! So of course I start searching for the one near me.

Liver Cancer diagnosis
Well today was a total shock of a life time. I was told that I do have liver cancer. I just sit here and cry and wonder again WHY????????????????????????????????????????? This is just a total nightmare. I just can not grasp that all of this is happening to me. And why does my family have to suffer and watch me go through all of this. I guess the dream of Mike and I having a huge diesel pusher and traveling across the US will never happen. I do hope I live long enough to see all 3 of my children graduate college. But after looking over the internet it seems that prognosis is 6 months to 18 months. I guess a great milestone for me would be 40. Most people dread turning 40....but in my case I see it as inspiration.
