My father is suffering from esophageal cancer. The cancer has affected a nerve near his throat causing him to lose his voice. Also, it has already metastasized to two other organs.

He has been treated with combined chemotherapy and radiation therapy for half a year, but his cancer shows no sign of shrinking and it’s gradually growing.

His doctor says he cannot surgically remove the cancer because the cancer is adjacent to nerves and important organs and such an operation will damage the adjacent areas.

Isn’t there any good way to cure his cancer?

How do they know that it comes from a particular organ if it is in the lymph nodes? Does each type of cancer have a cancer print? Is there a machine that can detect this?

Next year, I want to plan to have a cancer walk that students can participate in, but I have never been in charge of planning a cancer walk before. What advice do you have? Who can I get in contact with to do this? Should other people be allowed into the cancer walk? Should we put together teams to walk that day? Any suggestions are appreciated and will be taken seriously.
dink2925, I am perfectly aware of the way cancer has affected and changed our society. I have many loved ones who have been diagnosed with the cancer throughout my 14 years of existence, and I have decided to raise awareness to this and to do raise money to help provide treatment for these people. I am doing something about a major illness in the United States, something that I believe is just as important as picking up trash on the side of the road.
