What are the odds of a 23-year-old with lymphoma that spread to the brain beating it?
I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma when I was 22. By the time the doctors "treated" me (I had no insurance) it has spred to my kidneys, spleen, chest,neck, pelvis. Never that I know of did it ever get to the brain.





I am not sure of the odds, but this is one of the "best" cancers to get. I had an autotogolous stem cell transplant and am now in remission.





Cancer is very tricky. My cancer played tricks with me. I was due for 12 treatments. At testing during treatment #6 every tumor in my body had disappeared. I finished all treatments and 2 months later they all came back.





I pray for your sister and like they told me age is on her side. Redundant as it seems a positive outlook and love can be almost as good as the medicine.





May God be with you and your family.

Reply:My mother was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer 2 years ago and went through chemo therapy, as well as radiation. The pancreatic cancer was a non operational tumor, due to the fact that it attached its self to an artery. She was given three months to live in March of 2005. It appeared that way to us too, until she started the super health kit. Her always positive attitude, and this miracle of changing the body's chemistry from an acid system, to an alkaline base, has my mother not only a survivor, but gaining weight, no further growth of the cancer, and enjoying life again. web site CURE AMERICA.

Reply:Very odd. I have never heard of a "spot on the brain" in a lymphoma patient. You can, though, get CNS lymphoma (central nervous system) which is treatable. Her odds are better if it's a Hodgkin's lymphoma.
