Amanda Miller69 said:Angela Wright, slyseal28,
when is that reportage from Central Park going to be posted?
You guys were awesome🙂.

Thanx😍

The segment aired during the late news last night, and who knows, maybe they'll feature us somewhere again today🤷. Gogs screwed up again—he lost the adapter for his laptop's TV card, so he can't film any segments🙄, otherwise they would have uploaded it to YouTube😛.
Basically, what Patricia Levar was filming is actually footage for the opening segment of the show Focus on HTVU, which I assume will air this Monday at 9 PM on ABC. The show will also feature slyseal28 alongside doctors and representatives from Medicare and the Department of Health. It's going to be interesting🍿

Anyway, the footage recorded by Patricia Levar is actually intended for the opening segment of the show Focus on ABC, which I assume will air this Monday at 9 PM on ABC. Slyseal28 will be appearing as a guest alongside doctors and representatives from Medicare and the Department of Health. It should be quite interesting🍿

I caught the news at 10:15 PM, but nothing was on. Unless there's some even later broadcast scheduled.
I'll definitely be tuning in to Focus on Monday.🙂

Angela Wright said:Get in touch with Vedran at the association vedran@zanovidan.hr.
He’s doing some serious heavy lifting fighting osteosarcoma.
Just log in to the association website and copy-paste whatever is in that PDF about osteosarcomas.

Thanks. I already shot an email over to Vedran, but I haven't heard back yet... so while I'm sitting here waiting for him to reply, can someone please make sense of this latest radiology report for me?

During today's exam, there is still fatty thymic residue visible, along with small bilateral axial lymph nodes, none exceeding 1cm. The nodular lesion in the lower left lobe remains persistent, showing no change in size or morphology. However, during today's exam, two new solid nodules—measuring 0.5cm and 1.5cm—were found subpleurally in the left upper lobe and at the left base. Additionally, in the area of the left upper lobe near the pleura, there is a gas-filled cystic formation with clearly defined edges measuring 1.5cm, as well as one in the right side of the upper lobe with similar characteristics measuring 2cm, which weren't visible on the previous exam; the etiology of these is unclear (differential diagnosis: post-treatment changes?), and there are no associated bronchial changes near them.
There are no signs of pleural effusion.

The mediastinal vascular structures, trachea, and main bronchi all look morphologically normal.

Thanks!

We’re actually going to be featured on the Fox news at 6:30 tonight! We'll be discussing the petition.

If you can, please email all of this to me. I’m going to consult with Dr. Duke and Šantek. Just send everything to katarina@zanovidan.hr

Angela Wright said:Because this is such an incredibly brutal stretch of time—not just for the patients, but for their families and everyone close to them—and because our society fails to provide enough psychological support, I decided to start this forum. Having been caught up in this mess myself, I wanted to create a space where those of us who have faced these struggles can lean on one another for advice and genuine support.

Please, leave a post here. I promise I will always be around to reply, offer some advice, or at least just stand by you if things feel overwhelming. Sometimes the weight on the loved ones is even heavier than the fight itself.

Personally, I’ve been through hell, and honestly, I don't think anyone should have to walk this path alone.

Big hugs to everyone.

There are no solutions without turning toward natural, unconventional healing methods. Three things really matter here: 1. our mindset, 2. what we allow ourselves to absorb, and 3. our physical condition.

Hey everyone,
It’s with a heavy heart, but a sense of peace, that I’m letting you all know my sister passed away peacefully in her sleep last night.
She was such a fighter, and honestly, I couldn't be prouder of her.

I'll still be hanging out here reading your posts, and I'll help out whenever I can.

Hang in there, guys. Just stay strong.

Dear Agna, my heart truly goes out to you.😢 You should be incredibly proud of yourself; you were the kind of sister anyone would be lucky to have. It’s hard to find the right words to offer comfort, especially when someone so young is taken from us, but I hope you can find some solace in knowing she was deeply loved and lived a life full of purpose until the very end. May God, in His infinite mercy, grant you peace and guide you through this loss, just as He called her home to rest peacefully in His grace.
I am standing right there beside you, heart and soul, during this incredibly heavy moment.🙂

I posted here once before to vent about how much my dad was struggling with his illness (lung and brain cancer)... he finally lost his fight on July 15th 😢😢😢 It’s been just six months since we found out how bad things really were...
