Tom was \u2018introduced\u2019 to neuroendocrine cancer in April 2015 when his wife Lynn was scanned for breast discomfort (which turned out to be nothing) and a spot on the liver was noticed and biopsied. She had been reporting symptoms for 5+ years \u2013 all diagnosed as menopause, IBS, etc. Very typical. Her site source is her ileum (small bowel) which had metastasized to her liver. She\u2019s had two debulking surgeries resulting in \u2018no evidence of disease\u2019 for a short period before developing into 50 liver tumors.\u00a0 Several years later she was also diagnosed with carcinoid heart disease as a result of the serotonin from the tumors.
