so im a little bit lost and a little bit scared....

Less than one minute read time.

Its been a cupple of days since my last blog when i found out my cancer was terminal and being offered a clinicaltrail to prolong and increase my quality of life...i still dont really know how i feel,ive taken care of most of the practical issues...i.e thinking about the future, talking to my daughters dad whom i am no longer with and now what? ive got nothing left to do for now....and i think i think about it more when i yhave nothing to occupy my mind....i have has a long telephone conversation with my gp today who told me my start date for this clinical trail and it starts on the 20th of this month...so fingers crossed....all i can say is i feel a little lost...like mins are turning into hours and hours are  turning into days....time just seems to be slipping away so to speak and time is something i want to keep hold of for as long as i can.

Im scared half to death but im keeping my head up high and getting on with it so to sdpeak.....

    Emma, I think that not knowing how you are feeling is perfectly normal!! You are obviously an amazing person and a very caring mum.

    Try to fill your days with friends and laughter, spend time making happy memories with your daughter and don't feel that you need to pretend that everything is okay when it's not! Be honest with your family and friends about how you are feeling, they are there to help, as are all the wonderful people on here.

    I hope that  the clinical trial is helpful for you, you deserve that.

    If you think it would help, perhaps you could talk to your gp about getting some counselling to help you deal with how you come to terms with this. I cannot pretend that I know what you are going through, but I do know that you will find others on here in the same situation and perhaps gain comfort from each other.

    Just spend each day loving your daughter, and take time out just for you.xxx

    With love and best wishes, Sharonx

    Hi Emma, i am sorry for your results and i think you are being very brave. i just cant imagine how it must be like for you seeing your little girl. Fingers crossed for the clinical trial and any more chemo they give you.

    Take Care Love Kaz x

    I Echo completely what Maxine and everyone else has said hun. I only wish we could do more to help than just reply to your posts.

    Keep you head held high Emma and try to keep thinking positive and spend as much of this precious time as you can with your darling Autumn.

    I keep thinking all i have been saying this week is how desperate i am for my kids to go back to school but your post has made me realsie how precious these days really are.

    Love to you. xxx
