My GIST Journey

<p>I'm&nbsp; a newly diagnosed GIST patient.&nbsp; Im a 37 yr old dad and fiance, I work 2 jobs to try and make ends meet and now on top of the regular daily grind,&nbsp;I have to deal with cancer and Chemo that costs approx $1000 / week.</p> <p>I was diagnosed on April 24th, 2012 and had 15% of my stomach removed on June 1, 2012.</p> <p>On july 24th I received an AMENDED PATHOLOGY REPORT from Sunnybrook Hosptal in Toronto telling me that&nbsp;I am evaluated as HIGH RISK for progression of the disease and that I need to start CHEMO (Gleevec pill) immediatly.&nbsp; This medication is about $1000/week and i have to take it for 3 yrs.</p> <p>I have started a blog with my story to help you understand just what someone with Cancer goes through from diagnosos, surgery and pathology to Chemo etc</p> <p><a href="http://jasonsgistjourney.wordpress.com/">http://jasonsgistjourney.wordpress.com/</a></p>
