| Quote (Dr.GH @ Mar. 03 2009,02:55) | Wolfie, I hope you have all of 20 years before menopause. My wife and I got to share "menopause in a bottle," AKA tamoxifen following her first mastectomy. Her cancer has returned 5 years following a second mastectomy, and is unfortunately now considered incurable. She takes the estrogen blocker Arimidex, which so far has actually reduced the size and number of active sites in her lymph nodes, and so far there are no brain, lung or liver tumors (the next most likely sites for secondary breast cancers).
We are hopeful that with the anti-science swine out of the White House, medical research will catch-up in time to save her, and millions of other women's lives. |
Holy crap! I know such platitudes are useless but I am truly sorry for what you and your wife are having to endure. :(
I'm of the same mind as you with regard to the changing of the guard.

I've found my personality to be an effective form of birth control.
