About

39 year old male diagnosed with colon cancer in Jan. 2009.  Laproscopic sigmoid colectomy performed 1/30/09.   Pathology showed 5 of 18 lymph nodes effected making me Stage IIIc.  Started Folfox plus Avastin Chemo 2/24/09.  Early PET Scan showed liver mets making me officially Stage IV.  In July, 2009 I underwent a liver resection where the right lobe was removed leaving me with about 40% of my liver.  Unfortunately, the post surgery scan showed new liver mets had grown faster then we could cut them out.  Post surgery I am finishing the remaining 6 rounds of FOLFOX.  The adventure continues.
