I'm doing good . 3 of 5 chemo done. I have 1 a week. Proton therapy 11 to go out of 26. Exactly the same weight that I started this journey. Not much in side effects. Nausea once in a while. That's about it. I know they should get worse. Take it as it comes. Suppose to have minimal invasive surgery a few months from now. Cancer has not spread. Lower esophagus removed along with healthy upper stomach. I will research this and make a decision. Right now it seems the survival rate is the same. With or without the surgery. Either way about 3 years. With surgery your quality of life is poor. Without you can have a couple of years of good life.
