darthpaul's Journey with Stomach Cancer

9-09-09 the day i was told .....this is branded in my mind for ever ! it felt like the doctor handed me a shovel and told me to start digging .........i was told i have stage 4 stomach / esophageal that is spread to other areas and the survival rate was very low .....i had 1 year without treatment maybe 5 years with treatment ....hmmmmmmmmm i think ill choose door number 3 .....that i will beat this ! and ill show you doctor whos in control and that is god not you sorry doc , I AM A FIGHTER ....I AM A SURVIVOR .....AND I WILL WIN ! thats what was running thru my head the rest of what he was saying sounded like charlie browns teacher .....first thing i said to my family was no matter what i need my wife taken care of while i fight this ...........

ive been thru XXX with 4 different types of chemo , ive also been a canidate for the drug call herceptin which is a anti-body /cell blocker , ive been doing that from day one and its working for me with a minor side effect numbness to my hands and feet

im use to it now but the numbness in my finger tips and the bottom of my feet , if this is what i have to deal with daily so be it i am alive !
