My husband died of liver cancer in 2006 just 2 years after our younger daughter had died of Crohn’s Disease. We blame the stupidity of his oncologist. He had been seeing this guy for about 2 years and when he lost 60 lbs, lost all his muscle tone, could not walk from the bedroom to the kitchen, etc, the dr told us nothing was wrong with him in the cancer field. Finally, my daughter and I had had enough and took him to UAB. There his team of drs ordered a simple ct scan and found a tumor on his liver that was 5x5x5. They said nothing could be done. He died 3 months later. Some doctors should not be near patients.

You have my deepest sympathy. Liver cancer took my good ol' scout in 2003.

Terrible story. Sorry to see of your losses.

Sometimes ‘world renowned’ doctors, the ones that ‘wrote the book,’ will miss. Nothing to do but move on to another doc if the first isn’t helping.
