Living With Liver Cancer Website

Lori Murray, Associate Director of Corporate Communications & Investor Relations for Onyx Pharmaceuticals, forwarded me a link to this excellent site about liver cancer:

http://www.livingwithlivercancer.com/ – a worldwide awareness program that provides helpful information and resources to patients, caregivers and others affected by liver cancer. Site includes information about liver cancer, including signs and symptoms, risk factors, common terminology and available treatment options.

Liver cancer is not common in the United States, (Tell that to the 20,000+ patients that were diagnosed with liver cancer in 2009!) but it is much more common world-wide. Without access to a liver transplant it can be lethal. An estimated 18,000 Americans will die from liver cancer related complications this year. There are also a number of liver related disorders as well – I am working on an article about bile duct cancer for later this week.

Feel good and keep smiling! Pat
