Tina, Do you mind me asking your age and what kind of cancer you were diagnosed with?

Doctors don't know everything - although they know alot - they can only look at #s, statistics, etc... I have heard that those with the "I can beat this" attitude have a much greater chance of beating it. I don't know if that is true or not but I am certain it does play a part in one's ability to heal and bounce back from treatment.

I have had Leukemia twice,
. My first stay in the hospital was 86 days, 43 of that was spent in ICU. The staff gave me a 1% chance of leaving the hospital. I had every complication imaginable. I had a mild heart attack, pneumonia, two types of staph infection, and I had to have a trek put in my throat so I could breathe. I had mouth ulcers that ran from my mouth into my stomach. I ran fevers of 106 and 108. . I have received over one hundred pints of blood and plasma.
There were so many immature white cells running through my body that while I was laying in ICU the blood formed solids in my knees. My knees completely locked out and I was told that I would probably never walk again. I was diagnosed in January 2000. Today I am cancer free and walking. Keep fighting, only God knows when your time to go home is.
