we did see the breast cancer specialist last week, they are waiting for one more marker to determine the best way to fight my wifey's cancer. in the mean time they said the cancer is hormonally driven soooo all we have to do is shut off my wife's hormones.  ???

it's a little tiny pill, back in the day we would call it 'micro dot'

the odds are 20% it won't be effective at all, 80% it will shrink somewhat, 40% it will shrink DRASTICALLY 10-15% it will shrink so small they won't be able to see it anymore, and finally 2% of a chance it will cure it.

those aren't bad odds, espcially since if this method has no effect we can try others.  :cooldude:

things are looking up, she has regained partial use of her right hand, we got her some of the first grade writting paper with the wide open lines on it for her to start practicing and relearning her penmanship.
she has been able to curl her fingers and has good strength there, about a week ago she started to curl her wrist, she's getting stronger at that too.

That is cool, the way you said "they gave US good odds" She knows you are in the fight together.
