Hi, My Auntie was diagnosed on the 15th Feb 2011 with Pancreatic,liver & spleen cancer(4th stage) We were told that her prognosis wasn't good at all and advised to spend the next couple of weeks doing the things we really wanted to do before she died. She started on Gemcitabine & it really perked her up. The couple of days after having it she had the energy of a teenager!! Well 9 months later we had the devastating news that the chemo had stopped working & all her tumours were growing again. She didnt want to know her prognosis , but has told me she thinks its about 12 months, but the consultant told me we may just have her till after the New Year. Well she's made it but over the last week the pain as increased day by day. I cant stand seeing her in soo much pain & over the last 7 days I've been thinking "todays the last" but shes still holding her own, Bless Her. The rollercoaster of emotions is taking its toll on me, ( I feel so ashamed that I'm moaning & my precious Auntie just keeps on going) I just really needed to write this down somewhere to get it off my chest. Luv & Light, Trace xx
