All the love to you my friend. I have stage 4 colon cancer + it made its way into my liver. I've been alive for a year now and I have no idea how much longer I have.

I know what you are both going through. I know what myson & wife is going through, seeing me on my bad days during treatment. Knowing that one day I will leave them sooner than we had originally planned.

No matter how bad things are or appear to be I'm a firm believer that there's more after this life and unfortunately we have trek through the good and bad of this one to get to the end. Besides, where did we come from before we were born?

I only live for today, because this is all I have.

Be strong if you can. It's tough and hard. What we are experiencing is apart of life

Peace

I was dx the same 5 years ago. After two years of treatments and surgery with what I thought was the best team in the country (UCSF) they decided that my liver mets were positioned such that surgery would be impossible. But my wife found a team at Sloan-Kettering in Manhattan that specialized in just this case. They resected 70% of my liver and followed up with one round of radiation - I’m now two years NED. Feel free to contact me username at me.com if you want more details.

Thank you. Keep strong. Nobody knows how long they will live. Even healthy people. You have a loving family and the little pleasures. You still have a lot of good ahead of you.
