My mom has just started treatment, low dose oral Kemo and radiation (3D modeled low dose) on a stage 4 glial blastoma.

I am looking for success stories or just hope.

Sten,

My prayers are with you. My mom developed lung cancer at age 67. At one time was given very little time to live. Her will to fight and live, coupled with good medical care, family support, and prayer got her through for 8 more years.

Velvet Antler.

Velvet Antler is a product I highly recommend to all chemo recipients.
When I as on chemo I went immunosuppressed on the 2nd visit. I researched ways to increased my immune system and found this stuff in many reports.. I oedered some and from that time on I have never been suppressed again.
It's made from the felt from the Antlers of the red Elk of New Zealalnd. At about 45 dollars a bottle it is well worth the price to by that enhanced. I have been through Chemo twice and hey used 2.5 times the amount of the first and an additional chemo and I still waqsa not suppressed. I recommend 6 capsules a day while on chemo and about 3 or 4 when off chemo. TRUTH, Blitzzz (survivor)

The Brand is NATRAflex "Velvet Antler"
