I just had lunch with a girlfriend who had skin cancer on her face removed, but it wasnt raised and wart looking. It actually was flat. I guess I am concerned now about having it looked at.

Radiation for Cancer??

Hey mamas, To make a long story short, about month ago, my then 5 month old nephew had a cancerous tumor removed in his right kidney. They have started chemo and have been doing it for two weeks now.

Cancer - What Do I Do Now?

We were given the awful news over the weekend that my mother in law has cancer. She has been acting strange and not herself for the past week. Yes only a week. We convinced her to go to the Emergency Room with my father in law. Well, after the tests came back, they found 4 tumors on her brain and cancer spread throughout her chest. It's called adrenocarcinoma. So now what? We are taking her to the Thomas Jefferson Hospital in Philly for a 2nd opinion. They gave us options. However, that's all they gave us. No time frame as to how...
