update on hubby adenocarcinoma lung

Less than one minute read time.

four chemos now finished , oncologist said she was pleased with the way things were going as there has been shrinkage

initially radiotherapy wasnt an option the oncologist said cancer was too big  , they thought there was a lymphoma in abdomen but after ct scan she says it has shrunk and related to the lung  and not another cancer

on thursday my husband starts 10 sessions of palliative radiotherapy , i know the beast is not curable but im hoping that this will buy my husband lots more time

the treatment after this will be tablets the oncologist said what they willbe i dont know yet

my husband is my soulmate my best friend , the love of my life , its a very scary journey to be taking but i want to thank all my mac friends who have and are supporting me xxxxxxxx hugs

to all of you fighting this my love and thoughts are with you all xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Hi Irene,

    I'm so glad his chemo has gone well, that's brilliant news, long may it keep the beast under control. I hope Trevor is feeling ok after his treatment and you're both coping well. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for the good news to continue and for Trevor to stay well! xxx

    Hi Irene,

    Great news! You must both be so relieved that the brute in his lung has shrunk, and it's terrific that they can give Trevor radiotherapy too. A  huge step forward, and I'm so pleased for you.

    Now you can think about Christmas with a little more optimism, and I hope you'll have a very happy, relaxing time.

    Love & hugs,
