first i want to thank everyone who responded to my earlier post. i need help finding a web site that can give me some answers to my condition, more like respond directly to my symptoms. i have seen five different oncologists, in three different states now. to my shock none have seen anything like what has and is happening to me. i am in hawaii, but i am leaving for alabama at the end of the month, to go to the university of south alabama medical hospital. this is on advice of the doctors here who say the operation i need to remove the radiation damaged area ""i had rectal cancer, i have a colostomy now. basically my rectum, anal canal, and an area about the size of a large grapefruit is unable to heal. it is all hard scare tissue that continually brakes down to large open painful wounds"" would be more than anyone in hawaii can preform. i am scared to death, i wish i could meet one doctor who has at least seen my situation. i am telling you it is real bad feeling when the doctors say they do not know what is wrong. there is no way to move on in life don't know if i will be dead in two weeks or twenty years. i can not live on morphine in bed anymore. it has been four years this month. please if you know any doctors sites anything that can help me find out what the radiation did to me please respond. thank you robert.

All I can tell you is to keep trying. Try every major hospital you can find. Please do not give up. There has to be a Dr somewhere that can help you. I pray that God will lead you to that Dr.
I read in one of your other posts about your insurance problem. Insurance companies make me sick! They have no compassion for people. All they think about is money. I would keep on with them too!
You are in my thoughts and prayers!
