 Three Years Since Diagnosis stage 4 disease
« Thread Started on Apr 28, 2009, 11:20pm »

Hi All,
Hope this offers some hope to others. It is now Three years from diagnosis. You will know from the front of the website about the fight we had on our hands to obtain the drug Tarceva if not you can read about it via this link. http://www.lc-action4life.co.uk Jimmy was on Tarceva worked it's magic for around 20 months and now we are looking to other treatments. He has had a rough ride over the past few months. Admitted to hospital with bronchial pneumonia after experiencing breathing problems. He is now doing OK and still able to get around but has breathing problems, can still get about but finds stairs difficult. The next step is a clinical trial drug. My husband is amazing, I am so proud of him and admire him so much.

Love to all
Deanne
