To you folks coping with EC and the great volunteers, I want to express my appeciation to all who post their experiences and wishes for a return to good health. I cared for my 86 year old wife for the year following her diagnosis before she passed. 12 weeks of chemo and radiation, shrank the tumor, but the cancer spread to the liver, kidneys, and lungs.
While it wasn't Mayo Clinc, the Comprehensive Cancer Center here in Vegas worked valiantly to save her. Healthy all her life, she had no indication until she was unable to swallow. I tell all who will listen to get regular checkups, especially if you're using acid reflux medicine.
