Fl Home In Staging

By 2007, she was diagnosed with sarcoma of soft tissue around his heart and eshohagus. They are radiation, surgery and chemotherapy. All this was done at MD Anderson in Houston. She was then called to have a scan every three months. She was sent home to Fl. It took a few and the other showed a place, but it turned out to be nothing. Then it happened that they found masses in his left lung. She was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer three months before when she had nothing. They said there is a 10% chance she will live 10-25 years old. I've never heard of "chance" of being told that way. She is back at MD Anderson right now. How can it grow so fast and can someone explain the odds "ratio given it? We have been best friends since we were 15. Thank

From what you say, it did not have cancer of the lung, it has a sarcoma stage 4. I do not know why she would say that 10% chance she will live 10-25 years. I am sorry to say his chances are not high. Step 4 sarcomas have a survival rate at 5 years of 0-20%. From your description, it has a retroperitoneal sarcoma has a poorer prognosis. His dishes lung were probably about a year ago, they are just now old enough to be seen.


EDIT: Yes, the cancer in his lungs is most likely sarcoma.

Elijah, she is pretty young to have cancer, I never heard that someone said they could live 10-20 years, you know I do not see how they figure out how long a person must live, only God knows the day YOU Were Born A DDTHE day you die, the cancer had racing in his family, I think I can just get a second opinion on it, because having a stage 4 cancer and another 10 - 15 years to live? This does not add, I'll say a prayer for her. Good Luck Rita V
