Guest guest Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 Dear Beth in CA, First, let me say that you are a warrior. In a short space of time, you have endured much, more than I went through my first year or so. I don't take credit for being any different, I just take it one day at a time. Because of your reporting about your progress with Ariad, I have requested the same trial in Phase II. I will be leaving for Houston on the 13th, so I am thanking you. I hope I qualify, as I am running out of options, I have been on everything else but DC 2036. After speaking to , I have decided to go with Ariad as everyone one is seems to be thriving and I want a little piece of that. As Jackie Schneider said, we like your novels, so keep writing, we want to know how you are doing, there are people who are waiting to hear good news and your story is good news to all of us, it sounds like a good option for me and others who have failed other therapies. Dr. Shah is an incredibly good doctor who has a lot of experience with these trials and he knows well that of which he speaks. I think we are living in good times with these new drugs and Ariad looks the most promising of the drugs of late, and we all like the winner. Do not lose heart if your counts fluctuate, they are not a trend that you should be worried over. Support groups have been there for me, so I consider it pay back time. Each one helps one. Carpe diem, Lottie Duthu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
