      Jake. I don't remember receiving any questions from you. I am still alive and in month 48 of my modified ketogenic diet. I quit having biopsies when it spread to my liver and lymphatic system in 2004. I currently have an open lesion on my face, one on my elbow and several lumps in various places under my skin. I let my website lapse when I didn't think I was going to make it and didn't have the money to pay for it. My last visit to Seattle cancer care alliance, shocked my oncologist, who thought I died years ago. Neither he, nor I know anyone who's stayed alive as long as I have after metastasis. Just because it hasn't been done before, doesn't mean it can't be done. Feel free to contact me.
