My Dad died of Pancreatic cancer in 2004. There was not much they could do about
My 90 year old Mama has Melanoma. When they found it, it had mestatized in several places. She has been getting treatment for 2 years now and it has disappeared from ALL but a tiny spot in her lung.
We had an old hound dog that had several Melanoma spots on him. One grew to be as big as an orange in just a couple weeks.
The Vet wanted to treat him with an experimental drug and we agreed. He lived another 2 years before something else killed him.
I tease Mama when she goes to get her infusions that there may be some dogs up there
We like to think that maybe Ol' Rusty might have played a part in Mama's still being around.
A lot of folks don't like doctors because they are smart and make a lot of money. ALL of the ones I've mentioned deserve every penny that they make because they worked their asses off and made REAL sacrifices to get where they are.
