As some of you know from previous posts, my Son Mike is suffering from head and neck cancer that has spread to his sternum. . I had an email from Mike last night. He has applied to be a candidate for a new experimental drug regime for people that were not cured or put into remission with Chemo and Radiation treatment.
The drug name is Zalutumumab and is made by Genmab. It is a phase 2 study. That means it will not cure the cancer, but keep it from spreading and is only used when there is no other hope. The company will only select 100 candidates nation wide. Please join me in praying that Michael will be one of them and that the treatment will work.
Thank you all so much for your previous prayers. They have comforted both he and I.

Mike was 54 on Dec. 5. His treatments are leaving him "wasted". He had the last one Tuesday and has his next pet scan on January 26 to see if the tumor has shrunk. If not they will be doing a different therapy. The good news is that he has broken out in a rash. That is one side affect that indicates the therapy is working.
Thank you so much for your support. I am convinced that Ifish prayers got him into this program.
