Kezzerbird...Could have been worse

1 minute read time.

Hi guys..first of all thank you as always for your incredible support. What a stressful day it has been but the news is ok. My tumours have grown only slightly and so far only my right kidney has been killed off by the cancer but the left one is clear and my other vital organs are safe for now, I also have new tumours but I knew that anyway. They were going to restart treatment but have decided that my body can't take it right now seeing I have survived so much hard chemos for so long. The plan is now to let me rest and regain strength both mentally and physically and be checked every month by bloods and how I feel, I must say that I am happy with this  and now all I have to do is try and pick myself upoff the floor and slowly find some energy and carry on reaching for those goals that I made. I do feel like a train has hit me at the moment but I am glad to be able to say that to you guys and know that it is ok to feel that way. You guys have given me so much strength over the last 3 years and even though most of us will never meet, you guys are the best friends I have ever had and are very important to me and I will be there for you as long as I can. The only thing today that has been upsetting is that Kev my ex who is riddled with guilt will not leave me alone and I have made it clear that it is too late and has thrown up the past to my daughter of something that happened when she was 14, she is now 31 and the best daughter I could wish for, he comes on this site, I don't need or want anymore stress from anywhere, I want to enjoy what is  the rest of my life in peace so this needs to stop. Right my friends I need to go and lay down and unwind. It is the start of a new day tomorrow and time for some Kezzerbird arse kicking to start. Thank you guys so very much....love Carol xx

I am not dying of cancer, I am living with it

    Hi Carol, good news and time to re-charge the batteries. You had us worried girl, never known you as low, but as the song say's "The only way is up".  The docs must consider you strong enough if they were going to restart treatment. Good on yer lass, take a bit of control over your destiny, your willingness to fight will soon return NO DOUBT !!!!!!!!

                     It's not fair what your ex is doing, does he not know when to 'back off' ??? [Or something else 'off']  lol. Unwind a little, get your head together, visit your mates at the club and have a little fun.  You are my hero and will be for years to come.

    Big hugs, loads of love,  Bill xxxxxxxxx

    Hi Carol, I am so glad you got the sort of news you had hoped for. I am new to all this, and see my Oncologist on Monday, yes I know it's a Bank Holiday, but that's when he can see me. I feel in limbo at the moment, as I was seen by my surgeon at my post op checkup about 10 days ago, when I was told it was definitely malignant, and am still to see the Oncologist, so I have no Oncology nurse or group to get help or advice from, so I am relying on the various groups. I have to say, your posts have given me help to get my head around it all, and I would just like to thank you, and everyone, for the information I have gleaned, so I have a list of questions to ask.

    Take care, and keep on fighting.

    Love Sally XX

    Hi Carol,

    I am glad that you are ok with the result that you received today.

    I can hear 'fight' in your words again and that is lovely hear (or see lol)

    Kev needs to realise that you are moving forward with your life now and have no intentions of going backwards. You say he comes on here well I hope that he reads your blog and understands that he needs to let you live your new life now.

    Keep fighting hun, when my dad was really low i used to tell him about you and the things you were achieving and it gave him such hope. You are a true 'fighter' Carol and you have many goals to reach, so take time for you and get that strength back.

    Love Vicki xxxx
