DX and Treatment Plan, here we come !!! 11/04/11

2 minute read time.

Sister had phone call today to comfirm appts for Thursday. She has one with Chemo speciaalist and one with Urology-Oncology specialist.

She is terrified, although we have been told CT clear of further spread she is convinced they will tell us different. The Uro/oncology nurse that she spoke to today to comfirm appts has also fraked her out. ( They know each other through work so may have said more than she should ) Her words were " This is a bad one but we are going to throw everything at it " ..

I know you can read too much at this time into anything that is said but now i'm panicking.. Not in front of her though, only here where no one I know can share my thoughts. My dx for her so far has been T3 and I know all the yucky bits but what I think i'm going to find hard is if they give her survival percentages. Obviously this is her journey and she has to take it her direction and she wants to know, but how am I going to keep it together if it is really low. I have to be strong for her can't cry, it isn't fair. I WILL BE STRONG, I WON'T CRY.

We had a fab day today, baking cakes with my 4yr old daughter, playing out in the garden. Even then as she is doing such normal things like pushing her neice on the swing I can't forget it's in her, eating away.. I hope they remove her bladder first although it's sound more like chemo first. I just want it out her.

On a positive I have managed to convince her to allow one of her closest friends to visit tomorrow, she's been hiding herself away saying she's now known as "The friend with Cancer " .. I think seeing people will help boast her loads if done slowly..

You may never read this Big Sis maybe one day I'll show you it - when we're grey and old in our OAP home, this is my journey paralelle with yours. You mean the world to me and I love you more than you'll ever realise, your not just my sister YOU are MY best friend so as our journey starts I want to say " You're not going anywhere Missy, I need you around and there is no way i'm giving you up without the fight of all fights.....
