Just had mum on the phone to tell me how dad got on today at the hospital. Consultant was very surprised and pleased to see how well he looks on sutent this time, he siad that despite what they say about not being able to go back on this drug once you've been on some of the others he's going to ignore it and keep dad on. That was the good news - why does this always seem to come with a but...............
Although the xrays showed that there has been no change in the size of the tumour, its not shrinking either and he then finally said "you know we can't cure this". The words I knew but never wanted to hear.
Don't know how I feel as I write this, no tears, no anger, just nothing. For weeks I have been going on as normal, as if this just wan't happening.
