Thank you to all who has emailed to tell me that they were praying for Al. Until yesterday, I had never heard the word “terminal” while referring to my husband’s carcinoid syndrome of the liver, nor the phrase “no cure.”  Well, it seems that this syndrome is just regular cancer with a moniker stemming from the era where no one knew what it really was–just cancer!  Al has had three separate bouts of cancer, not counting the two types of skin cancer he has been fighting for several years.  To say that I feel like I have been hit by a truck in my gut would be an understatement.  We are going to be buying time with the chemo delivered directly into his liver that he had yesterday and by a couple of other traditional medical treatments. We are also exploring alternative medicine programs that have had extremely high degrees of cancer cures or real remissions!  So while embarking on this new adventure, I feel so sad for him as he endures the nausea and other side effects of chemo.  I wish I could trade places with him for watching him suffer at all is awful.  So please keep him in your prayers.
