Had a scan in the week and there is 30% improvement.  Blood cells improved.  I was crying and laughing at the same time.  More healthy liver at last.  Still taking it day by day.  Thanks go to our Almighty Father and secondly my beloved husband who passed away 2 months ago.  He is my guardian angel, covering me with his wings.  [he also had cancer].  I&amp;#39;m holding on and fighting back for my liitle kids.  To all of you out there, keep the faith and stay positive.  This is all thats keeps me going.

My 1st marker at 2000, dropped to 300, went up to 600 last week.  Dr say he cant explain why, nothing to worry about.  I take a test every 3rd week.  My hubby&amp;#39;s marker was 10 500, dropped to 190.  His dr is not really keen on markers. &lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/aggbug?PostID=226431&amp;AppID=20939&amp;AppType=Weblog&amp;ContentType=0" width="1" height="1"&gt;</content><author><name>Former Member</name><uri>https://community.macmillan.org.uk/members/formermember</uri></author></entry><entry><title>Not ready for Liver opp</title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/porchiajeff/posts/not-ready-for-liver-opp" /><id>https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/porchiajeff/posts/not-ready-for-liver-opp</id><published>2009-03-27T12:29:53Z</published><updated>2009-03-27T12:29:53Z</updated><content type="html">I started my 7th chemo today after i said no to surgery.
