    Hi Kelly,

    Welcome and like the others I am sorry you had reason to find us. I am a 2 year 9 month survivor of stage 2b extrahepatic CC. I had a Whipple and 6 months of chemo (no radiation) that ended June 2010. I have had a few scares along the way, but they have turned out to be nothing so far.

    Sounds like you are getting some good results with your chemo and I wish for continued successful in the future.

    You will get lots of information on this site form many others. Just wanted to say hello and welcome.

    *Hugs*

Looking forward to hearing more good news from you!

    Hey Kelly! Sorry you had to find us.

    You are in the right place with MD Anderson! I love them there! I see Dr. Javle. He is the sweetest man! I have had lots of success under his care. When I first started, I was given no hope for surgery or transplant. Now, almost a year later, I find myself on the transplant list at the Methodist Hospital there in Houston.

    Hang in there girl, this can be a hard ride, but with love and support, you will be just fine.

    My name is Kelly Reimer and I am new to this site. I am 43 years old and was diagnosed with Stage IV CC on May 8th. I am so lucky to live in Houston and to be under the care of doctors at MD Anderson.

    I have been told that Chemotherapy is my only treatment option right now. Yesterday was my 9th treatment. We have had a little success. I have had two CT Scans that showed my cancer was stable with sight shrinking and improvement. My cancer marker number has shown more significant improvement with big drops but seems to be leveling off now. I realize this is a good result but I want more as I’m sure most of you can understand!

    I’m happy to have found a place to connect with others who understand.

    Thanks,
    Kelly
