Dear Millie, AKA tough old cookie!, I just read your email and wanted to reach out to you to let you know how often I think of you and others who have and continue to be such an inspiration to the new comers as well as the rest of us. I support Jeannie's theory, you will find out more information and then proceed from there, I support your phenominal spirit and envision you healing..and doing things on your bucket list!...You might want to ask your doctors if there is anything you can take, while off tasigna that helps support your liver to heal. Wishing you all good things Millie. Saw a beautiful quilt hanging on a wall at the hospital and thought of you..Keep up your spirits! we are with you!

I think we all live with that fear. You are so brave and an inspiration to all of us. Getting to know you has been a real positive in my life. Are you turning yellow? I think you will fight and beat this just as you have done all your life. We will continue to pray for you and let you know how much we care. My sister was dx with liver disease because she drank a lot of alcohol but she lived many years after she was dx. She finally had a stroke and that is what she died of. Let us know how you are doing.

My Gastroenterologist diagnosed me with liver disease and it's most probably caused by the Tasigna. I'm trying to handle it right now, and doing fairly well. There is no cure, but because he wants echo's of the liver every 6 mo., it gave me some hope. I'm off of the Tasigna right now, but don't know what my Oncologist will do when I need to be back on it again. I'm hoping that I can stay off of it for a while though. My Oncologist asked me if they had done a biopsy of the liver, and I really don't think so. They did go down into my stomach and took biopsies of some things, but at that time, I don't think they did one of the liver. I'm sure he'll call the Doctor who diagnosed me and talk to him, and if it wasn't done, will probably want one. He has been so good to me and even calls me every few days to talk to me. I've been his patient for 20 years, and that's a very long time to have a cancer patient I'm sure....At this point, I consider him a friend. I'm just telling you all that I am taking one day at a time and not letting myself get down over this. I have things to do, and need to work on my "Bucket List". I'm still under home care and hope that will last for a while, as I'm weak from everything I've been through lately, so it helps having them here. I will try to keep you up on what's happening with me and would appreciate your prayers. I always knew that there would be side effects...not only from the Tasigna, but other drugs that they have had me on. I'm not depressed and will try to stay that way. As I tell everyone, I'm a tough old cookie and plan on staying that way. Many hugs and lots of prayers, Millie -- -- [CMLHope] A support group of _http://cmlhope.com_ (http://cmlhope.com/) ------------------------------------------------- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CMLHope" group.
