Hi Narinder,
Thanks so much for sharing your dads experiences with us all! That is a great story indeed and we love hearing stories like yours! I hope the good news continues for your dad with his scan next month, and here’s to the next 5 years!
Best wishes to you and your dad,
Gavin
October 12, 2011 at 8:11 am #53635marionsModeratorNarinder….thanks for the explanation. No wonder you had mentioned the piano. Your Dad must be feeling great. I suppose it takes a bit of energy to blow in to the bellow.
All my best wishes,

October 11, 2011 at 8:53 pm #53633karenSpectatorYahoo! Your father is blessed. Hoping for every success with the next five years.
October 11, 2011 at 3:58 am #53632marionsModeratorNarinder….Congratulations. We thrive on success stories like your Dad’s and please, continue to send it our way. Good luck on the upcoming scan and for his appetite to increase a bit more each day.
I am wondering: in which way does the Indian piano differ from all the others?
All my best wishes,
MarionOctober 11, 2011 at 12:13 am #53631lainySpectatorWOW! That is a great story with a whole lot of hope for others, thanks for that.
What a way to join our wonderful family. I always say, being a Grandma, that Grandchildren seem to be the very best RX. I am wishing for you a great Scan
your Father is already a survivor and a Miracle! Please keep us posted.October 11, 2011 at 12:10 am #53630pcl1029MemberHi,
Congratulation on the 5 year survival for your dad. And I hope he will have another 30 more years to enjoy life.with God’s help, everything is possible.
God bless.October 10, 2011 at 11:31 pm #5759narindersinghSpectatorMy father was diagnosed with extrahepatic CC about the size of a walnut in Aug 2006. He was 61 years old then. Surgery was attempted but abandoned, Gallbladder was removed along with some lymph nodes which showed negative for CC. My father had no further treatment apart from love, compassion, prayers and lots of fresh organic fruit juice, good healthy diet and lots of laughs with his two grandchildren Jaya and Ajay. About 2 months ago he went to have his stent changed after which he developed sepsis, he had severe bloating and poor appetite and he lost about 40 Ibs.
He stayed in hospital for three weeks, had about 10 litres of fluid drained from his abdomen but eventually recovered. Fortunately last week we were told by his specialist that he could find no further occurence of ascites in his abdomen at his appt a week ago. This was good news because when ascites starts it usually means bad news and frequent trips to have the fluid drained. He is slowly regaining his appetite and remains active playing with his children and playing his Indian piano. We are due to go for a CT scan with contrast next month to see what the cancer is doing, he hasnt had a scan since 2007 because his health has been stable except for stent changes. This has been one hell of and emotional rollercoaster ride. So he has reached the 5 Years since diagnosis mile stone this October and we hope for another 5 years fingers crossed. -
