Reed, thanks for sharing the info. Not sure what I can do, but will
help all I can.

Don't know Paul, but if he's a friend of yours he's sure to be a
good man. Prayers are in the wind for him and his family.

So sorry to hear this as I'm no stranger to this horrible disease, lost mom recently as she fought the good fight. I believe faith is important part of treatment and I'll say a prayer for the guy......Rob

While hoping is all well and nice, what are you doing yourself to help?

Hoping is better than going over and beyond to bring negativity into the situation. You having been a nurse could have provided some uplifting advice, instead you resorted to your usual demeaning, negative BS.

Again, I hope the best for your friend Reed & I apologize for allowing alexias to gain some spotlight in this thread. Shouldn't have even responded to him/her.

Reed, sorry to hear about your friend and his cancer. Hopefully all will go well.

P.S. I have submitted a message to the moderators in an attempt to cure the cancer on this thread.

Enough is Enough.

Wonder how many times you have been reported to the Mods today? I just added one. I really hope they boot you soon. You should be ashamed of yourself for the comments you have made about people that are suffering from a terrible disease. On a thread where a Well known miner and friend to many simply tried to bring attention to a friends ( and fellow miner) situation.

You are a pathetic horrible waste

Sorry, I thought it was a project crow founding website. And I thought insurance would pay for that, even then most people don't have to pay for chemotherapy drugs or radiation. Also, the treatment he is receiving sorry to say will not work, and in my nursing experiences will more than likely result in an even earlier passing, so I think knowledge would serve his purpose more than money even could.
Alexias your not from the states so know nothing about our health care here.

Keep thread on topic. Any attacks will end in being banned. This was supposed to be about helping someone not about acting like little kids!

Cancer is a bad deal but for tumors there is hope. MedWaves Inc. is located in San Diego and they have a device that kills just the Cancer Tumor in 6 to 17 minutes depending on the size of the tumor.

The device is inserted into the tumor via a small incision into the body at the best location to reach the tumor from. Takes 2 to 3 stitches and the incision is closed up. After the procedure you are free to leave and do what you want, like take a vacation.

Once the tumor is dead the Doc's only need to treat the patient for cancer cells in the blood stream so any Kemo is light duty because the tumor is dead. Therefore the patients quality of life stays almost normal, not like the typical cancer treatment loss of quality of life.`

There are about 20 Hospitals in the U.S. that are qualified to use the treatment. MedWaves has a web site with information there for contacting them. The best hospital/doctor is in Rhode Island and the last I knew there was a hospital in Colorado (I think Denver) that was using the device.

I hope this information helps to make someone's life better off!....................................63bkpkr
