Hi Minnie,
My dad had his PDT back in September of 2008, and he passed away in December 2010.
Best wishes to you and Karl,
Gavin
Hi Gavin, I read your story about your Dad and I really appreciated all of it. thank you so much. We are currently sitting in a motel near Seattle, with our two little dogs, so we can get there at 9am tomorrow to discuss this treatment.
I will post after I get some info. One questions, how long did your dad survive after that treatment? Thank you again.Hi Minnie,
My dad had PDT back in 2008 after he was diagnosed and this was his only treatment, that and a metal stent. I wrote quite a bit about his experiences with PDT, here is a link for you –

Best wishes to you both,
