Happy International #NETCancerDay to all, like me, who "celebrate." I'm a 5-year survivor.
10 November is designated as #NeuroendocrineCancer awareness day. My cancer is on the rise around the world, and many have no symptoms...yet.
#LetsTalkAboutNETS

Over the past two months:

• friend R diagnosed with Stage 4 #ClearCellCarcinoma; surgeon removed ALL reproductive organs, omentum, and I don't know what else; she had one chemo treatment and then had a "stroke-like event" a few days later; hasn't had 2nd treatment yet because of too-low platelets

• my dad is officially diagnosed with "early" (Stage 1?) #NeuroendocrineCancer: he has a tumor on the mesentery; 3 or 4 lymph nodes are affected so far; surgery & chemo not scheduled yet
