mauvanilla Posted November 11, 2016 Report Share Posted November 11, 2016 C. stay strong Man. Immunotherapy has gone a long way; and have been one more tool to fight the disease. Prayers go to your Father; your Family; the Baby on the way and above all that the treatment can be efficient! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobmontana Posted November 11, 2016 Report Share Posted November 11, 2016 My thoughts and prayers to your father and your family. My wife went thru treatment 2 yrs ago ... Though she is clear now, the 3 Month checkups are still horrifying to say the least. As some mentioned here, there are people out there making strides in new ways to help. Stay strong and positive!!

Thanks Nobs, What is interesting is that the 3 month checkups showed all clear via CT scan. It's only when a breathing issue had them do an MRI which found many small growths that the CT could not pick up. I was told even if it does not show in MRI it can still be microscopic and spread. I'm glad to hear about your wife and hope she continues to do well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+TourSpecGolfer Posted January 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 Thanks everyone. My Folks made the move to the Pacific North West fine. While the first drug nearly killed him (Votrient) The immunotherapy drug Opdivo in just a few weeks made all his cancer nodules disappear. There are some pretty harsh side effects even 4 weeks after he got off the Opdivo. It takes steroids to manage them but you can't take those forever unfortunately. Now the hard part is teaching the parents to eat healthy and get more physical activity. So he went from having many nodules and a short time to live to not having any nodules... The testing continues. His first battle with cancer was 4 years in between with no signs. Also had my baby boy just before xmas :) Now it's almost time to return to Japan again... I appreciate everyone's support. I appreciate everyone sharing and showing that I'm not alone in this. It's time for pops to reture his TourStage TS-202's with S300's for something like the PRGR Super Eggs or Yammy UD+2's with carbon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck4golf Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 As long as you're hoping to teach healthy eating/exercise, the practice of pranayam (breathing to increase energy) is also great for impeding cancer.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
