I love Dr. Luke. That pretty well sums up our first conference with him that lasted two whole hours. He is amazing .the facility is amazing. All of the staff is amazing. I feel so blessed to be here. It looks like I am going to be accepted for the study unless something comes up with my pet scan for PSMA which is scheduled for the 13th. After that we will be moving to Omaha for six months!

That's awesome love to hear good news!
Brilliant!! Love to hear good news.
That is great news! It must be hard to be taking care of yourself and your partner. I know the move must be stressful. New places can be confusing at first. So proud that you could organize this all.
Delighted to hear that.
Hey John, I have returned to the board after a couple of months' hiatus from communicating about Pca. I looked to see your updates. I wish you the best of luck with the new treatment and I am excited that you found a study in Omaha. Please say hello to Warren Buffett while you are there. I am pretty sure he frequents Gorat's Steakhouse if it survived the pandemic. If not check out the local Dairy Queen.
Great news great John. You’re in the heartland now. Viva Ohmaha! Please keep us abreast? May your health improve there . 🙏
Awesome, very happy for you both!
Good for you greatjohn! Where will you get your PSMA scan?
Good luck you are in good hands.
Good luck with your treatments my friend! I know you’re a bit of a foodie, so when you feel like going slumming for some fast, local food, get yourself some Runza. They can be found in drive through places that are ubiquitous in Nebraska, and only Nebraska. The state capital, Lincoln, is less than an hour away, has a nice university campus, and is worth a visit. You’re also going to find out that Nebraska in the summer is every bit as hot as Florida.
Keep us posted on your good news.
The day we arrived on Easter The high was 98° here. In Fort Lauderdale it was supposed to be 75.

Crazy!!! Thats a real heat wave
There was Runza around the corner from my place in Lawrence 25 years ago. My roommate bad wrappers from that place everywhere. Culver’s out of Wisconsin had a great butter burger but those things couldn’t have been good for me. Glad you found some help John. You are one tough guy. First day my lungs are feeling better in 10 days since getting just kicked in the butt from COVID. Doctor told me this morning if I hadn’t had Moderna 10 days before exposure they don’t think I’d be here now. Suffocating is terrifying. I hear they have some good breweries in Omaha, probably on Douglas Ave somewhere. Warren can hook you up!
You mean “accepted”. Scared me for a minute when I read “excepted”. Great news!!!

I was using voice to post and I didn’t proof read it well. Thanks!
Great news indeed. What Hospital or center is that?Wings
It's always amazing how everything seems to align. My prayers are with you. 🙏🙏 Arlis
Just remember, all that corn you will soon see growing isn't sweet corn, it's feed corn. 😜😜🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽.
Hello, You are in good hands. I was fortunate enough to hear Dr. Luke Nordquist' presentation at a PCRI conference a few years ago in Los Angeles. Very impressive young doctor. He is at the cutting edge of what is happening in PCa. Good luck!
Fabulous news! Continued prayers and good thoughts for y'all! Hope you were able to bring your dogs, they're such good nurses and healers! :O)
At this point the plan is to leave little Sparky at home with our friend who stays in our house with him. But that may change after the first month here I may have a friend bring him up. He’s just demands so much attention and I was telling the doctor I want this next few months to be about me Me me😊
I totally understand! So glad you have a friend that also dog sits! Wishing y'all the best! 👍✌️🕊️🙏👬🐾🐾❤️
I found the LU-177 treatment to be easy on my body. You should have some time for side trips and adventures. Lots of worthless things to see on the Roadside America and Atlas Obscura websites. Here arw some featured attractions
Finally making the move. I'll be following you all the way through. Best of luck to you and yours. Doug
Thanks Doug
What trial is he running with Lu177? Thx
Splash
Wishing you the very best Bro!
Fingers crossed the trial works out for you. Good luck!
Great news Wishing you the best
That waiting room looks like you're in a 5 star hotel lobby. Any insurance coverage issues?
Curious to know if you considered LU177 trials elsewhere in the US, such as with Dr Scott Tagawa at Weill Cornell in NYC. I expect that cost of living in NY area for 6 months vs Omaha is a no brainer. For me, I live in NJ and could commute back and forth to NY.
👍
I had a phone conference with Tagawa, real intelligent to say the least. When we talked his trial was 2/3 got the Lu-177 for a one shot high dose 500 mCi . With extensive follow ups. Had to be PSMA avid and negative on regular scans...I did not qualify so had to bail and go to India. Great seeing these trials coming here. Duke is going to open one up some time this year , if I am correct. I will check next week. Blue Skies
My choice for this trial was either Omaha or Houston.
My choice given me was Houston or Omaha
Great news. So much easier then traveling overseas.
Truly this was an ordeal enough and will be an ordeal enough. Traveling overseas now seems like it would’ve been impossible. I’m dealing not so much with myself, but my husband’s dementia issues.
Good luck. Kick Cancers ass and enjoy the adventure.
Congratulations! Where does Dr Luke. Practice? I'm an Omaha native who'd like to find a ON doctor upon my return.
Again, hope all goes well.
Thx
Sweet!!!
Good luck with your treatment
Good luck John
That's brilliant keep up the positive vibes & stay well
New Adventure!!! Best of luck to you!
Good luck warrior ...I’m hoping your results are amazing too. You’re the best buddy.💪💪💪👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️

A-HAM-O W-HAM-O your Pca...........
Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.
