Deb, I'm so sorry for what you are going through. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. There are so many new treatments with each passing day, week and month, so a cure may be right around the corner

Deb, I am so sorry that you are facing this trial in your lives. I will have your family in my thoughts and prayers.

Thank you all so much. I'm a little nervous and can't sleep. Tomorrow is the results from the Pet Scan, and some of the other tests. They are trying to find out where this came from, since bone cancer is usually a secondary cancer. He only had a 3% chance of a 2 yr survival with his Esophageal Cancer, 6 yrs ago but his EGD scope of his Esophagus today looked good I guess, and Biopsy results will follow next week or two.
So, makes us wonder where the Primary Cancer might be... He's starting to lose feeling in his arms now, and Dr. said it was probably from his neck. They're talking about a Rod placed so he won't break his neck in a fall... eeeek.. he falls a lot!
So we should know a little something tomorrow afternoon...
Hugs and Thank you again for your thoughts, kind words, and prayers.

My thoughts and prayers are with you for the best possible outcome.

Hello Deb

I'm really sorry to hear about your husband CJ. Don't lose hope because Miracles do happen.
My sister had Cancer of the Bone Marrow and with treatment she was able to live two additional years and that was in 1992, she was 42. Since then, they have come a long ways as far as treatments. Keep thinking positive.

I was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma in December of 2004 and was given 5 days to live and I'm still fighting the battle. With Chemo and Radiation my Cancer went into remission for about 4 years until last October 2008. My Pet/Cat scans came back positive for Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma of the complete Lymphatic System. The Board of Doctor's at City of Hope couldn't understand why this happened. It's very unusually. They had two solutions, either stem cell of the bone marrow or Chemo. I thought about it long and hard and decided to take Chemo. I will be taking it every 6 months from now on. Remember, their is always hope and new treatments coming.
Chemo drugs do help but leave you with other medical conditions you really need to follow up with.
Just a suggestion, I've been on B 12 injections once a week for years and I can't help but feel this has helped with pain management. Ask your doctor what he thinks about letting CJ taking this for awhile. It sure helps, I have problems with pain meds and can only take tylenol.

For now, I just take one day at a time, because that's all that everyone really has. Enjoy life for what you have now and don't let tomorrow spoil the day you have... It's a gift, live it to the fullest.

I know the family is really upset and wish I could do something to help. I'll keep you all in my prayers and hope the treatment will be successful.

Prayers and Hugs for CJ and the Family
