Chemotherapy?

How long is the process of kemo? I mean how long does a person have to go through it? And how many “sessions” are there…as in where they put the chemical killing substance in you?

The chemotherapy regimen is dependent on the type of cancer. I had cancer back in 1982, and it lasted 18 months with a pattern of different drugs. It was every 3 weeks, with an AB, AC pattern. Halfway through it went to AB, AD.

No, it doesn’t always kill the cancer, nor is survival guaranteed. My treatment plan called for 8 weeks of Radiation as well.

The rates are dependent on the cancer as well. But, as my doctor had said – don’t worry too much about the rates – it will be 100% or 0% for me.

I lived, btw.

100 Greatest Science Inventions of All Time $42 This ready reference presents fascinating facts about 100 amazing inventions, a panoramic overview of the history of science, and a collection of engaging reads.Inventions are the stuff of dreams, quickly gaining widespread use, becoming central to culture, and ultimately changing our lives. They teach us a great deal about creativity and scientific principles, and, of course, the power of invention is of utmost importance in today’s world of technology and innovation. Focusing on the 100 most significant scientific inventions of all time, this ready reference presents fascinating facts about amazing inventions, a panoramic overview of the history of science, an introduction to some of the most important inventors in history, and a collection of engaging reads. Each entry, arranged chronologically according to when the invention was made, contains information on what the invention is, who the inventor was, and how the invention was created. It also provides the historical context of the invention, its significance today, and information on resources for further reading/research. More than two millennia’s worth of inventions are covered, ranging from the practical (clock, eyeglasses) to the everyday (measuring spoons, ball point pen), the life-saving (antiseptic, chemotherapy), and the mind-boggling (the number zero, cloning). By covering inventions throughout history, rather than just the 20th and 21st centuries, and presenting information comprehensible to young readers, this book fills a gap in the literature. It is a wonderful resource for student research and reports; can easily be used for read-alouds or as an introduction to teaching units on inventions; as well as a solid general reference on inventors and inventions.

Excerpt: Bubba (c. 1982 – August 22, 2006) was a Queensland grouper who resided at the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago, Illinois . Bubba is believed to be the first fish to undergo chemotherapy . He was often nicknamed “The Super Grouper.”History The 69.3 kilogram Bubba was donated to the aquarium in 1987 by an anonymous donor; at the time he was a female about ten inches long. Bubba switched gender to male (being a protogynous hermaphrodite ) in the mid-1990s and eventually grew to 154 pounds while living in the aquarium’s “Wild Reef” shark exhibit. In 2001, Bubba developed an unusual growth on his forehead, which was eventually diagnosed to be malignant ; the aquarium called in veterinarians to remove the growth surgically and treat Bubba with chemotherapy that year, and again in 2003 when it regrew.Shedd officials stated that Bubba was popular with cancer survivors, especially children, and was a favorite of visitors. The oncology department of Hope Children’s Hospital in Oak Lawn, Illinois recognized Bubba with a tile in the ward. Bubba died in August 2006, presumably due to problems with his health that were related to his old age and medical history.
