Dear Diana,I guess you can't post email address's on this site.Yes I am on FB.Lyn Pederson.Send me an invite!How fun you got married on Maui.My husband is amazing.He thought it was the flu and 3 days later his hands and face got white white white.he was very tan and layed down,he woke up and said we need to go to the ER.They did a blood count and found out he had lost 75% of his blood.After 3 days in ICU and 19 pints of blood and plasma they found the stomach tumor and it had ripped open his abdominal wall and that's where the inter bleeding occurred.His cancer had spread to his liver and spine.It was stage 4.Now two years later his sailed thru radiation and takes Gleevec everyday.He has never had one day of pain.No fatigue or nausea.Nothing has changed.I hear all the horror stories and his doctors are baffled too.So we are very lucky.Nothing will change the fact that his terminal but until the other shoe drops we just live life.Please send me that invite on FB.With big hugs and much Aloha,Lyn
