Liver surgery tomorrow, cancer is disappearing!

9 months into my cancer adventure, and lots has changed -- for the better!
Bullet points:
- Stage 4 colorectal cancer, with metastases to liver (maybe lungs?)
- 12 rounds of IV chemotherapy
- 30 rounds of chemo/radiation combo
- Just finished a 2-week break with no treatment...wonderful :)
- Main tumor shrinking
- Liver tumors dropped from 6 to 3
- Cancer markers dropped from 168 (normal is 0 - 2.2), to 1.6 today (NORMAL!!)
- Liver resection tomorrow morning (removing about 15% of it)
- 2-3 days in hospital, 3-4 weeks before return to work
- A huge THANK YOU!! to all of you. It's so wonderful to know I have all of you rooting for me, I love you!!
I'll shoot some updates as soon as I'm awake after surgery.

    Dr. Dan, been rewatching your old cancer videos and it makes me feel so sad that you were so optimistic that tumors were shrinking, even though you were told of your survival rates with stage four colon cancer. I’m not sure how you felt about your future in this video, but you did mention that you “could still live a long life” in the video that precedes this one, dated December 19, 2021. You’re the eternal optimist, because most of us wouldn’t be thinking about a possible long life given the survival rates you were given. I so wish things went your way because you’re such a good guy, and still have so much to live for. You’ll be greatly missed, and I wish peace and comfort all the way to the end. ♥️♥️

    Hi Dr. Dan, I’m praying for you, the surgeon, and all the medical staff who will be involved! Praying for a speedy recovery afterwards, no complications, and continued good reports from future check ups. God bless you!

    Hi, I'm Melissa and I'm 39 years old and I have Liver cancer and I'm gonna be starting chemo pills today and doing radiation therapy soon but my cancer doctor tried to tell me that their wasn't any hope for survival and that I should go into hospice. But I feel fine I don't look or feel sick at all. I'm so glad your that your liver tumors are disappearing. Thanks for sharing your progress with us. Is their any advice you could give me. Cuz I'm scared I've never gone through cancer before.

    If ur fingers feel numb, squeeze a tennis ball in each hand. As ur fingers n hand strengthen over time, the numbness will be overcome. If ur toes experience numbness, start doing toe raises with both toes perched on the edge of ur stairs, dipping ur heels downward then raising upward, stretching the calfs. Graduating from this exercise as ur toes (n calfs) strengthen over time, use dumbells (or barbell across ur shoulder to do ur toes/calf raises.

    I know this was a video from 2 years ago, I myself in 2023 just had surgery in December 2023 after doing 6 months of chemotherapy and in December having my surgery. I was diagnosed with colon cancer and it metastasized in liver so I had colon cancer tumor and also in my liver. It turn out to be good news after the surgery my surgeon got the piece of tumor in my colon and liver out and he did it robotically too . But had to make a little bigger incision to make sure he was able to take out my tumor in my liver in 1 piece. I was a week in the hospital .

    Hi, 4 months ago I had my first cancer Removed on top of my right kidney, was 1.8 cm RCC grade 2. Successfully removed without any issue, a month before the surgery I had AN MRI showed nothing else besides that only mass on top of kidney, I drank a bottle of red wine throughout 8 hour period while watching movies, eating fatty food, After that I’ve been feeling some weird pains on both of my rib cage sides, and on both sides of abdomen, starts 1 hour after I eat. Pain not constant, it comes and goes. Some contipation, 12 months ago ULTRASOUND showed multiple tiny polyps in gallbladder, Does anyone think it could be a sign of early Cancer putting a pressure on both sides of my abdomen? I feel these pains every night when I’m about to wake up, not super strong pain, it comes and goes.

    Remember: I do not tell everybody to have NO sugar. But for you it is essential for your life to have no more sugar ever again. Because you have mitochondria that are fermenting.
