Chemo Treatments!

Well, without the treatments, you have 0% chance of long-term survival, right?

With the treatments, the odds vary. Keep an eye on it. Get scanned as often as you can, to catch any flare-ups early.

My uncle's girlfriend, about 62 years old just died. She had a cancer that was inoperable and incurable, but "treatable." She was getting chemo enough to keep it in remission. All was going well. Then, one time she had a scan and it had flared up so much she was gone in a matter of weeks.

So, I'm glad to hear it, but wanted to advise you on that.
