pooh! kidneys doing poorly. very high potassium, creatinine and bilirubin. think interventional radiation is off the table and same with clinical trial. UCSF sending us back to Travis for nexavar.
we are thinking the kidney function is going to be the culprit in the end. yes, we have gone in for hydration several times. my question, dearest hector, is about dying from kidney failure. isn't that a lot easier than from the liver cancer? got some info or a source??

Excellent!
They are willing to try new things beyond the standard protocols if the patient is willing to keep on fighting.
I am living proof of the results that can happen.
Very happy for you both.
