Guest guest Posted December 20, 2003 Report Share Posted December 20, 2003 Aloha Marilette, Namaste. My sister was being treated for cancer with chemotherapy but developed bleeding in the colon. Her physicians cauterized the visible lesions but are still unable to locate the source. This has been going on for several weeks, and she is being transfused several times a day but quickly loses the fluids. The chemotherapy has severely damaged her own production of red blood cells in the bone marrow, and she is not able to continue the cancer treatment until she can maintain a minimum blood count. Doctors have given her 'several weeks to several months' if her situation does not improve. Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated.
