A man I know died last week, two days after his first chemo treatment. Yes, he had cancer, but was still very active. He had planned to spend the weekend fishing at the river. His doctors were saying there was every reason to expect a full recovery. He was 46.
Chemo is nasty stuff.
Same thing here.
Church member strong iron worker, very active, went in for Chemo at a local third tier hospital.
Died two weeks later.
Chemo killed him.
The oncology chemo treatment efficacy tables show a range of mortality odds.
New targeted cancer treatment drugs show promise, along with early detection diagnotics.
May all of fellow Freepers and your loved ones be blessed with the best of health.
