Didn't see this coming

Less than one minute read time.

Hi,This time 7 weeks ago I was just coming out of the Gym as per usual, I thought I had better chase up my Pleural Biopsy results as it had been 6 weeks since I was in hospital. My wife and I were thinking no news is good news,how wrong we were. I now await appointments for radio/chemotherapy. Mesothelioma (I can write it but cant pronounce it) Thanks for taking your precious time to read this

    So sorry to hear your news.  You must both be devasted.  My husband was diagnosed with mesothelioma in September last year.  He finished six cycles of alimta and cisplatin mid February, and since then thank God has stayed very well.   It  did take us both a while to come to terms with the diagnosis, but now we live a few weeks at a time, and try to always have something in the near future to look forward to. Nothing more I can say, except that I have learnt that we all deal with things in our own ways, and there is no right or wrong way to feel. I hope you wil both find comfort and support from this site.

    Kind regards
