My paternal grandmother had breast cancer and they removed at least one, maybe both breasts. Later it was determined that it had metastasized into bone marrow cancer. Prior to her the longest lived patient was 6 years, and the average was 2-3 years. She survived with it for nearly 20 years. She was written up in some medical journal about having survived longer than anyone, and providing hope for others with the cancer. She fought hard to the very end. Even after saying she'd take no more treatments, when a new one was recommended she would try it just in case.
So, hang in their Lowell, don't let this thing get the best of you. I know it is hard to keep hanging in there, and it gets depressing. Don't let it. Rest on your faith, and know that no matter what you will be all right. We are praying for you brother.

I think it is bone cancer..and there was an article that I believe she said she was taking that medicine that was given to mothers back in the 60s that caused them not to miscarry but turned out to do birth defects in later generations..I think...this sounds familiar...anyways...can you do some research on her and find out what kind of cancer she has...cause I think I read after a year or so of treatments she went into remission. Just a thought.... You know our prayers stay with you Lowell...and we know that if anyone can beat this....you can.
