    Hi Momma,

    A week away from here??? You got no chance!! Am away to the bookies to get odds on that one as I so have to play that bet! 2hr op and 1 night in the hospital this time then…. yep,…….. your brain is getting smaller, hope they can find it!! ;)

    In all seriousness, you know I’ve got everything crossed for you on this as always and getting cramp everywhere keeping things crossed for ya! You need to tell the doc this time to get it all in one go!

    Hope you have given orders to Robin once again for update duties as you know we are a nosey bunch and need to know the details as always. Or maybe we just have come and camped out in your room and the surrounding rooms as well! 6am start, nice! I’m up at 5 these days, busy busy here. I could give you a phone to get you up! Fingers crossed for you, and everything else as well!

    Love ya loads,

    Gavin

    Thanks for that as well, much happening now with immunotherapy research, trials etc. This yesterday came out but is not cc related but just shows some progress and gains that are being made with immunotherapy and cancers.

    Thanks for that Marion! I can’t take asprin though due to past stomach ulcers and asprin and I would say that ulcers should come into people’s thinking if they are going to be using asprin longer term. But of course everyone should speak to their docs etc before starting using asprin anyway for anything.

    Hugs,

    Hi Kay,

    Wish that I could help you on this but like Marion I am not sure about this either. I too will be keeping my fingers crossed that the histology reports will show the next course of action so that treatment of whatever type can begin and begin soon. Please let us know how things go.

    My best to you and your husband,

    Gavin

    Hi Julie,

    Yep, I so agree with you and like you as well I am sure that much good will come from this as well. I think also that Bill Gates and some others have been involved with donations such as this into immunotherapy research and no doubt much more will come as the research progresses. Well that’s just my 2p’s worth anyway!

    Here is an interview with Sean Parker last night that I saw on CNBC. Well worth putting up with the adverts to get to the interview for those who may be interested.

    PS – If the adverts annoy you like they do me, GRRRR! Then get an ad blocker! :)

    Hi Kris,

    You got it. Tons and tons of positive thoughts are coming your way for the test results tomorrow and of course will be keeping everything crossed as well. Wish I knew what to say to you right now but you so deserve a break, a huge break in fact what with everything that you are and have been going through with everything.

    Big hug coming your way,

    Gavin

    Glad that both liked the pieces and I so agree with what you both say on all of this.

    Here is another great piece from Cancer Research here in the UK about debunking some of the myths out there.

    http://scienceblog.cancerresearchuk.org/2014/03/24/dont-believe-the-hype-10-persistent-cancer-myths-debunked/

    Go with the experts would be my advice as well to all and if you don’t like what one expert says or their attitude etc then seek a 2nd or 3rd or even a 4th opinion but always, always, always from an expert in the field.

    Hugs,
