My 3 year old has cancer - Cancer Message Board

My 3 yr old daughter was diagnosed with liver cancer that spread to her lungs in May 2006. Stage 4. She had 85% of her liver taken out & has gone thru 6 rounds of chemo. Right now, she shows no signs of cancer, but I am scared that it will come back. Has anyone dealt with this before?

Ive never had a child with cancer. My mom had lung cancer, I couldnt imagine my child with it. I just wanted to send a prayer your way. I hope your baby stays cancer free.

Ask, your Doctor about a marrow transplant from your own rib or your husbands rib, also ask about transplanting part of one of your ribs to her! I work in the field of Bibilical Physics, and we believe the Bible has the answer for all physical problems; This idea is not main stream: Yet, if you read the Bible it will share this and many other healing truths with you and your doctors!! God Bless and save your child in Jesus we pray AMEM!!!

Hi Tori's Mom,
I have several people in my life who have had this illness but not gone through it with a child....
Your post really jumped out at me as I have a 3 year old son so when I read the subject heading it felt like something just slapped me!!! My heart breaks for you and what you are all going through. Looks like you've been dealing with this for almost a year now, how awful. My son has had some issues but nothing like this, I just cannot imagine.
What is her prognosis? If she is cancer free, this is a great thing..... My mom has had breast cancer twice and she always lives with the fear of it coming back....unfortunately that will never leave you. Have the doctors given you any idea of what the chances are of it coming back? Some types of cancers have better cure rates than others...
I so hope and pray this will never return to your daughter and I will say a prayer for her.......I have no clue who you are but your post really touched me today. My heart just breaks for you as a mother.........just pray God will keep her safe from now on and give you all the peace and happiness you deserve.
God bless,
******

My daughters prognosis is less than 50%. If it just stayed in the liver, her chances would have been good. But because it spread to her lungs, it's more likely to come back. The doctor doesn't say how likely. She just tells us to enjoy every day with her. We also have 2 boys, ages 14 years & 12 years & Tori, who has cancer is now 3years & a little girl that is 2 years. So as you can see, we have our hands full. Thank you all so much for your replies. Please keep us in your prayers.
