Raven, please ask about a drug made by Bayer. Someone mentioned their father (Stage 4 angiosarcoma) being treated with it at Sloan-Kettering. They said it had stabilized his cancer. The reference to it is "experimental", but the post is almost five years old. It might not be experimental anymore! Here's the post: http://www.cancercompass.com/message-board/message/all,13890,0.htm.

You may already know about this website: cureasc.org
It was started by two women with angiosarcoma. This page has very concise information on angiosarcoma research projects at Sloan-Kettering: http://cureasc.org/angiosarcoma-research/

Please take a look at the last section on using targeted toxins instead of traditional chemotherapy. It sounds so promising!

I know that you will beat this. XOXO

Hi Ravie,
It's Sydney F, from FB. I gave it up for lent, but have missed seeing your updates, and being a part of your FB wall chats/convos. I have been praying for you, and I think about you every day. You are blessed with strength, and you have a community who adores you. You have brought us so much happiness over the years, and we love you for it. We are all holding you in the light!
Love, Sydney
