Saving the best husband & friend I have ever known

My husband has been critically ill for close to five years now. We have tons of the 'Ologists', and no one knew what was eating my husband up inside and outside. We had a dermatologist that just wouldn't give up on us. Even when all the others did. She finally got us a referral for Cleveland Clinic. Poems syndrome was the final word from our wonder oncologist. We felt so scared and alone at this point. Our doctor made us feel secure for the first time in five years. "Wow" Lack of knowing is devastating. We were so insecure. We cried when the first oncologist told us we didn't have bone marrow cancer. How sick is that? But that is how desperate we were until we came to the Cleveland Clinic. Thank you and God Bless.
