I love him with all my heart and have been with him for 34yrs and hope we have many more to come. With this drug and alot of Jesus on our side we have a fighting chance.

My father celebrated his 78 birthday in July 2013 and had a great time. His health was fair. He was still very active, drove himself where ever he wanted to go and was full of LIFE. He, along with my mom did their best to keep with regular check-ups and took his medications as instructed by his doctors. He went to the emergency room with what he thought was an appendicitis due to the unbearable pain in his side. He was given this medication for stage 4 liver cancer (Hepatocellular Carcinoma). It deteriorated his health so fast it was worse than the cancer. It even caused early onset Dementia. It was 19 days from diagnoses to death. I would NEVER recommend this drug.

But it gives him alot of pain, naseau and fatigue. he has to be on a bland diet because of his bowels. He is on 800mg a day. In may we will see if this pill shrinks his tumors.

Had a liver resection 7/22/11 where they removed a 2 1/2 lb. Tumor. Did not fit profile for hepatacellular carcinoma at all. Drs. Were surprised but, then again, why not me. Have lost most of hair , eyebrows, etc. But they will come back (I hope.). Rash in the beginning, no appetite, sore feet and constant diarrah. Have lost 45 lbs. So far. Could still lose more. Look good and feeling well. ... Show Full Comment

Had a liver resection 7/22/11 where they removed a 2 1/2 lb. Tumor. Did not fit profile for hepatacellular carcinoma at all. Drs. Were surprised but, then again, why not me. Have lost most of hair , eyebrows, etc. But they will come back (I hope.). Rash in the beginning, no appetite, sore feet and constant diarrah. Have lost 45 lbs. So far. Could still lose more. Look good and feeling well. Everyone is amazed but I have a very positive attitude. I'm 67 year old female and have been married to my high school sweetheart for 45 years. I'm hoping to make it to our 50 anniversary, God willing. We can only do so much and the rest is upmto God. Keep the faith and pray.
