Hi Rick, I've never dealt with you before; but in 1980 my mother went thru chemo with her cancer and in very early 1981 was virtually on her death bed in a hospital taking morphine for her extreme pain. As you can imagine things were alot different with a lot less knowledge. But being on her death bed my mother fooled them all; she went home a month later and lived another year and a half until May 1982 being on oxygen, and other meds, etc. So be a fighter - don't ever give up!! My prayers to you. Al
