> To every one who has experience or everybody who would like to help:

> Here is my story.

>

> My name is Greet and I suffer at leiomyosarcoma of the uterus.

> A tumor of 8 cm (3.2 inch) has been diagnosed at the round bundle at the

> right of the uterus in February '96.

> In April '96, this has been removed surgically. After a pathological

> examination, it appears to be a sarcoma.

> The intervention (surgery) took place in Lier (Belgium-Europe). After

> an examination by using different scanners , echo and RX, the tumor

> seemed to be a solitary tumor. The treading specialist of the hospital

> in Lier decided not to give an after-treatment but to follow up the

> evolution by echo and scanner.

> After an echographical inspection in September '96, they did diagnose a

> relapse. Once more, they found 2 tumors at the round bundle at the

> right.

> Then I was referred to the gynecological oncology of the catholic

> university Louvain (Belgium-Europe) and went through a new operation by

> Prof. I. Vergote. The operation consisted of the removal of the 2 new

> tumors + a tumor that has been discovered (during the operation) around

> the crossing between the large and small intestine.

> Luckily , my uterus and ovaries have been saved although it was planned

> that they had to be removed.

> As visually determinate, everything has been removed. There was decided

> that there would be no after-treatment but a severe succession of the

> evolution.

> Until January '97 everything was al right but at the end of January '97

> a new relapse has been diagnosed at the round bundle of the uterus. The

> specialist Prof. I. Vergote decided to treat the tumor of 4 cm (1.6

> inch) with chemo therapeutics. At the beginning of February '97 this

> therapeutics has been started. The intention was to administer (every 3

> weeks) baxters (infusion) over a period of 24 hours and this 6 times.

> Before the start of the thirt session (at the end of March '97) they

> took a function measurement CT scan.

> This scan showed that the tumor has been increased considerably and

> diagnoses showed also 2 new large tumors.

> The used cytastatica were ifosfamide and adriamycine.

> At the Chief-conference of the hospital they did decided that a further

> chemo therapeutics and/or operation would be useless: unverifiable

> tumor.

> Prof. I.Vergrote did inform me on Friday, March 28.

>

> So far my story. I'm 31 years old and enjoying life very much. All my

> vital organs are still O.K.

>

> I beg everybody who thinks by experience in classical or alternative

> healing arts can help or advise me for further treatment, please do

> answer this cry of distress.

> I don't want to die but I desperately would like to live again.

> Many thanks in advance. Greet
