Two months after treatment

This is about two months after I came back from Japan's treatment.  My health condition has started to change, I am now have a few things to manage, coughing, leg swelling and abodomen pain.  It is a blessing that I am able to enjoy my well being despite of all these as long as I manage it well.  My cultured cell from Japan has arrived late that means I was not any treatment for two months.  

The Doctor in Bangsar has suggested an alternative gene treatment which uses the P53 (Gedecine), to control the growth of cancer cells and tumours.  I have received 5 treatments, some are done intra-tumour and some are done using IV.  The result may be promising too but the medecine is just too expensive, RM3000 for 1 valve, each treatment needs 3 valves.

I started my (CTL) cultured killer T-cells injection last week, I was responding to the treatment.  The second harvest of my immune cells was also and hopefully this time I will have more CTL produced.

Meanwhile I was told to start chemotherapy to assist with the limited CTL injection.   The local oncologist will suggest a lot of chemo drug for me to try but this will do a lot of harm to my body in order to give a shot, I could actual do chemo profiling to determine the chemo drug that will respond to my cancer cells.

This lab test is not available in Malaysia and any country nearer than Phillipine so I decided to fly to Manila, Phillipines to do a biosy sample and do this lab test to determine the chemo drug before starting my chemo.

Lord Jesus, thank you for your faithfulness and unfailing love, I am make strong in you day by day.

Blessings.
