Gwohann can now use the molecularly targeted therapy, as our oncologist coined it 'the trump card', to kill the driver for the cancer growth and keep the beast under control. He is fortunate to be one of the 10% NSCLC patients whose gene mutations match EGFR. Therefore, the targeted therapy Tarceva will work 'beautifully' and produce great result for him.
We are very excited about this new treatment which was only available in the last few years. The drug will be taken orally with tolerable side effects, hence, not only that the drug will be effective, but we will have a better quality of life.It feels like that we are let out of the 'chemo cage', free and wonderful!
You are receiving this update because you have been cheering us on and giving us a hand while we were in the chemo treatment. We couldn't have sustained the chemo without you! Thank you for all you have done for us!
Love,
Gwohann 國漢 and Jacqueline 佳芬
