Guest guest Posted August 5, 2006 Report Posted August 5, 2006 Hi Jan, I'm sorry to hear about your sister's new diagnosis. We used to have a member a few years ago who used to post on her husband's behalf. He had CML and colon cancer. If my memory serves me, he did well with the surgery, the chemo and the CML wasn't a problem while he delt with the colon cancer. Unfortunately I can't remember if he went off Gleevec at any point but I do remember that he had his colon resectioned and eventually was able to lose the bag he had. All in all, I believe he recovered from the colon cancer and the CML was never an issue. I wish your sister the best, Tracey > > My sister was diagnosed with CML two years ago and last week, colon > cancer. Is there anyone out there that has had both cancers and how > did it go for the surgery and follow-up chemo for colon cancer? Did > you go off of Gleevic? We would love to hear from anyone regarding this. > Jan in Los Gatos > Quote
Guest guest Posted August 8, 2006 Report Posted August 8, 2006 Hi Jan! It was good to see you Saturday. The shower was lovely, and Meg got beautiful gifts! It's so nice to see Kathy reap some rewards for all she's done over the years. I'm honored and privilege to have her for a sister (in law) and friend. Her circle of friends in San are wonderful!! I hope you get some responses from the CML group re. Betty's medical questions. Love, [ ] CML and colon cancer > My sister was diagnosed with CML two years ago and last week, colon > cancer.
