Researching...

Well.
Not laying down and taking things as they come.
Being proactive.
Doing research.
Tenative about some places.
Hopeful about others.

I like the idea of cancer treatment people connecting with one another...
Also found the link here: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/home promising since it includes all clinical trials for cancer around the world. Searchable by type, etc. Found one I thought was hopeful, mostly.

So far, I'm investigating 8 options. Shall see. Slightly tired of repeating myself going over all my medical history, etc. Appreciating my oncologist's referral letter which pretty much includes it all in medical terms most seem to appreciate. Asking many questions before having any hope about any treatment option.
Concerned that my arthritis will conflict with most treatments since it is an auto-immune disorder. Also concerned with other factors, shall see.
Have 2 appointments for next week with cardio thoracic surgeon and radiation oncologist.

Enjoying time with family and friends.
Loved watching the movie Inside Out, brilliant one. Hooray for 1/2 price movies on Tuesdays at a nearby theater.

Cancer Research:
Looking into clinical trials and immunotherapy treatments in many states in the US and also in Israel.

At OHSU. Going back on Monday next week...
