The 2nd opinion
The second Doctor had reviewed his record from the start to the present. He provided a in depth insight on his opinion, comparing and explained the images of the CT scan from the beginning to present time, showing us images on how the cancer in the liver is progressing each slide at a time, comparing the size of the liver after each treatment stated that since last September the chemotherapy treatments only works partially. By Jan the treatment start not being effective, by the last oral chemotherapy treatments despite it's not working the cancer is growing at the same time. His condition just start declining the pass three weeks. As both doctor had explained the cancer are progress very fast. He also explained why not able to apply target medicine and why not using clinical trial medicine. It's all come down to the point the liver function test that we done on April 30 was falling so bad, one of the trial medicine drug was already being used on one of his previous cocktail of chemotherapy drug. Which is not safe to apply for any treatment, which will be dangerous for him to take on any chemotherapy drugs and it will have reversed result to caught him into life and death condition. The doctor had performed an ultrasound on the appointment to be sure whether there is any fluid build up on his abdomen to release the tightest and tension but again it only find out the the cancer in the liver are progressing to cause his abdomen being so blowed. Pushing all the surrounding organs. His eye are getting more and more yellow as well as his feet swalling are not going away. His final wishes is to return back to Los Angeles to be with his family and good friends. I am doing something out of my comfort zone, taking him, my son as well as my neice travel to Los Angeles with him as a family, he called it as our final vacation together. I have preparing all his medical records handy, consult with doctors advise. We finally made it down to Los Angeles on May 08. I can see he show comfort on his face when the jet touch down and landed safely. He was well surrounded by love from his immediate families and good friends. His appetite was improved and at least he is try to eat and request for food that he is caving. As I have a serious discussion with him yesterday he consider Los Angeles is his final resting place as he was growing up here with all the memories and this is a place he really called home. I am glad I made the right decision to take the risk to fly him down here. I am just hoping the God can offer him a bit longer time to be with us all. Please keep praying for our little family.
