iloblog 1.0http://dsrct.jacobjuhl.dk/In January of 2006 my wife was diagnosed with Desmoplastic Small Blue Round Cell Tumor, also known as DSRCT, which is a rare and extremely aggressive form of cancer, usually with poor prognosis for survival. <br/><br/>After months of extensive chemotherapy, several operations, and more chemotherapy we thought she might have an actual chance of surviving. After two weeks of cautious hope our world was destroyed yet again when a scan showed that new tumors were growing in both lungs. There were no more medical means to cure her disease, and eventually she died on January 9th 2007.<br/><br/><br/>To help others who are in a similar situation, my wife and I made this blog, where her entire treatment course is described in detail as a kind of diary. The blog also contains a short description of all the medication that has been part of the treatment.http://iloapp.jacobjuhl.dk/blog/dsrct?Home&post=42 It has now been three weeks since Mette died, and life is slowly starting to...Mon, 29 Jan 2007 20:58:03 +0100Diaryhttp://iloapp.jacobjuhl.dk/blog/dsrct?Home&post=41 On friday, January 5th Mette suddenly felt terrible pains in her lower back...Tue, 16 Jan 2007 21:22:23 +0100Diaryhttp://iloapp.jacobjuhl.dk/blog/dsrct?Home&post=40 Mette got a new new lung drain on the 30th, a very large one, to try and...Thu, 04 Jan 2007 20:19:29 +0100Diaryhttp://iloapp.jacobjuhl.dk/blog/dsrct?Home&post=39 The morning after Mette came to Skejby Hospital she suddenly started running...Fri, 29 Dec 2006 21:19:48 +0100Diaryhttp://iloapp.jacobjuhl.dk/blog/dsrct?Home&post=38 Mette slept all night with no problems until 5 am, when she woke up in a lot...Wed, 27 Dec 2006 19:36:44 +0100Diaryhttp://iloapp.jacobjuhl.dk/blog/dsrct?Home&post=37Today the lung drain was removed and Mette quickly started feeling better....Wed, 27 Dec 2006 19:30:20 +0100Diaryhttp://iloapp.jacobjuhl.dk/blog/dsrct?Home&post=36 On the night of the 23rd Mette started running a fever, and as always we had...Mon, 25 Dec 2006 20:16:29 +0100Diaryhttp://iloapp.jacobjuhl.dk/blog/dsrct?Home&post=35 Today our doctor wanted to find out what had caused the excessive bleeding,...Fri, 22 Dec 2006 16:58:17 +0100Diaryhttp://iloapp.jacobjuhl.dk/blog/dsrct?Home&post=34 A few days ago Mette started feeling ill - headaches, dizziness, pains in...Thu, 21 Dec 2006 20:09:03 +0100Diaryhttp://iloapp.jacobjuhl.dk/blog/dsrct?Home&post=33 Sutent was developed and has been approved for two types of cancer: advanced...Sun, 17 Dec 2006 10:55:58 +0100Medication
