Cancer

First . some background info: My boyfriend was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer in November '05, we had been dating for 8 months. They gave him 3 months to live, but thank god that he is still around. he went into remission for a few months, but is now on a 6 month chemo treatment. we have been living together for almost a year and have recently been married. i am 21 and he is 24. he has energy and i am helping him keep his weight up by cooking nutritious meals everyday. by looking at him, you would not be able to tell that he has any ailments at all. he is essentially VERY healthy. He but has been getting meaner by the day. he won;t spend any time with me and says very hurtful things to me. he either plays video games all day or spends all day and every saturday with his best friend. whenever i retaliate and say anything mean to him, he storms out of the house and is gone all day. i know that he's not cheating on me, but i don;t know how much more i can take, any suggestions?

I have heard some places that take hair donations for kids with cancer are frauds, so I want to make sure my hair goes to the right people. I'm a guy, so this is a once in a life time thing for me since it's hard to grow it out 10 inches for donation.

we just found out on monday a family member had a brain tumor and they operated on him yesterday. Surgery was 3 hours long.. they got 95% out and doc thinks it's most likely cancerous. He will need radiation for a couple of weeks and also chemo.. doc thinks it could be 1 or 2 types of cancer (biopsy still being done) and if it's one of those, it's treatable..
has anyone ever had a cancerous brain tumor and cancer free now? please please pray for my brother in law..
thank you.. :(

Any survivors of colon cancer?

I recently found out that a very close relative of mine has colon cancer. Is there anyone who has survived cancer that would like to share their story? It is a very scary time, and any positive outcomes regarding cancer could help uplift his mood.

Thanks!

What is the youngest age to develop breast cancer, or any cancer of any type and tumors run in the family, but cancer is has a quite a bit of distance in our family generations, but I am 17 and I am worried that I might have a tumor, because my breast hurts and I'm not sure how to feel a lump. This is not one of those sick stupid questions. If you can give me real appropriate answer it will be greatly appreciated.

Thought this was very worthwhile so I'm sending it on to you......

Cancer update -- Johns Hopkins -- Cancer News from Johns Hopkins :


1. No plastic containers in micro.




2. No water bottles in freezer.




3. No plastic wrap in microwave.




Johns Hopkins has recently sent this out in its newsletters. This information is being circulated at Walter Reed Army MedicalCenter as well.




Dioxin chemicals causes cancer, especially breast cancer.






Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies. Don't freeze your plastic bottles with water in them as this releases dioxins from the plastic.




Recently, Dr. Edward Fujimoto, Wellness Program Manager at Castle Hospital , was on a TV program to explain this health hazard. He talked about dioxins and how bad they are for us.




He said that we should not be heating our food in the microwave using plastic containers. This especially applies to foods that contain fat. He said that the combination of fat, high heat, and plastics releases dioxin into the food and ultimately into the cells of the body.




Instead, he recommends using glass, such as Corning Ware, Pyrex or ceramic containers for heating food. You get the same results, only without the dioxin. So such things as TV dinners, instant ramen and soups, etc., should be removed from the container and heated in something else. Paper isn't bad but you don't know what is in the paper. It's just safer to use tempered glass, Corning Ware, etc.




He reminded us that a while ago some of the fast food restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper. The dioxin problem is one of the reasons.




Also, he pointed out that plastic wrap, such as Saran, is just as dangerous when placed over foods to be cooked in the microwave. As the food is nuked, the high heat causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and drip into the food.




Cover food with a paper towel instead.




This is an article that should be sent to anyone important in your life!

The tumor suppresor p53 can be degregated by the HPV protein E6 at one of two distinct binding sites on the p53 protein. One can lead to degredation and one does not. HPV types 16 and 18 bind to the one that can cause degredation, and the low-risk types of HPV bind to the site that doesn't....

My question:

Is the site that can cause degredation of p53 hereditary?

I'm having a hard time finding my answer. And if you do know, can you please link me to the credible source you found your answer from. Or even give me an idea of how to search it because I'm having a hard time.

My mom had tests done, they found a few growths on her liver, but after a biopsy they said that the cells in the liver does not indicate on liver cancer, but indeed originated from somewhere else. Does anyone know where that can be and of any cases that that has happened before. Any help would be appreciated.

Am I too young to have breast cancer?
The past two generations of my family (males & females) have died from cancer. I am 25 years old, last week I found what seems tobe a lump in my breast. I'm not even sure what would be considered a "lump" medically speaking. It is on the outer part of my breast, closer to my armpit. It feels like a small pebble in the tissue, but not in my skin. It isn't painful, but I definately panicked when I found it. Could it be cancer?
