Hi - Thanks for the friend request....If there is anything I can help you with, please let me know. I am about 3 1/4 years out from having my liver resected. I thank God that it was able to be resected. I went on CPT11 after that and ended in Sept 07. So far I'm NED. Hooray. I pray that you are doing well... Take care Mandy

Welcome Karen to our wonderful group. We have many young survivors here as well as great young buddies too! In addition to this great group, we have a one-on-one buddy program. Please feel free to call me on the helpline and we can talk more:

877-422-2030

Under the chat archives is our January chat with Dr. Choti out of Hopkins - he's a top liver doc. Has there been any talk about a liver resection, RFA, etc?

Let us know how you're doing.
