Default No more treatments...

Hi,

I just thought I would let anyone who is curious know that Dad is no
longer having any treatments unless it is for pain management. The
cancer is not responding to the chemo anymore and it is spreading. He
does not have brain mets, thanks for small blessings....

He is 16 months from diagnosis. We are happy that he lasted this long
given that he was given 6-9 months. I don't know how long he has left,
he is still quite strong and still has some body weight. I am hoping
that he and Mom get out for some fun before he gets too sick to enjoy
life again (going off the chemo has him feeling better already).

Take care all,

Nina

I hope your Dad and Mom do have enjoyable times that you so wish for them.

Thanks for updating the group, Nina.
