“This conference represents the cutting edge
of medical information dispersal. Getting life saving information to
patients with this exceedingly rare disease allows the patient to educate
their local doctors rather than the usual paradigm in which physicians are
the ones with the knowledge.” - Dr. Eugene

Since
1996 --- when I first located others with Carcinoid --- I have answered
every email sent to me, although some replies were delayed longer than I liked.
I am NO longer able to reply to all e-mails due to the volume and other things
going on in my life (all good). I do love hearing from others, but an unable to
reply to all individually.
This web site was 15 years old on April 27, 2012, and my plan is to keep it
updated for many years to come.
Since my husband "retired" I am away from my computer for days, and
sometimes, weeks at a time. Yes, there is wireless internet and we have
tried that a number of places. But, if I deal with email when we are away
from home then it is not a "restful vacation" for me.
PLEASE use the SEARCH
capability at the top my pages. You may search for a word, a phrase, a
drug, a treatment, a book title or anything you can think of. You may search
this site only, or search the complete World Wide Web.
