    • About Me

      I'm retired from the US Postol Service. I was diagnosed with Renal Cell Carcinoma in 2004. I had my 1st surgery on my right kidney in Nov 04, my left kidney in Jan 05. The cancer metastasis to my lungs and chest. I had IL-2 treatment in 2006&7, it was not successful. I just ended my 1st dose (28 days) of Sutent.

    • Ray of Sunshine

      From LoneWolfe November 13

      I thought I'd send you a little sunshine via here, since I was online. I'm staying in bed a bit today. I've not felt really good for almost a week now. Can't shake it, but keeping as busy as possible. How are you my friend? I'm going to post some new pics on here, and I'll email you when I have them here. Love, Hunter

    • I’m With You

      From Beccaanne October 10

      Hey Ron,
      it's always so good to hear from you, you give me a smile when you tell me your doing good, we have become good Torisel buddies the 4 of us... Tim goes every Monday and he's still on 20 mg's, he feels comfortable there and it's keeping him stable, it makes me feel good when you let me know how long you've ben on Torisel and it gives me so much hope that Tim is tolerateing it so well too....Tim's been on it 10 months now and i don't hear to many people that are on it, i've been hearing alot of people are going to start or have started Infinator (i think thats the right name) it's suppose to be on the same idea as Torisel and works the same way, but in pill form.... Tim will be going in for a port a cath consult in a few weeks, i think it's time for it as his veins are getting tougher to get at....
      I'm doing better these days, and you are right about caregiving is alot of work, especially being his only support, secretary and avocate, but it's my one and only job...iIhave been taking better care of mental and physical health and more aware that i need to do this, and especially getting alot of rest too...Ron, keep in touch, it seems like we have been friends for such a long time now and it has been since day one sinced i joined DS way back last Sept 13 months ago...
      Take care my good friend...
      Love,
      Becca
