It was really helpful to read your comments. I was begining to think that maybe it was some personal inadequacy that I hadn't bounced back by now!
No, my experiences do not dominate my thinking, but I suppose we all need time to process what has happened.
Thanks.
Mum came over today so we could discuss dads funeral, we know its for the best to be prepared but my god it suck discussing it while he is still here. We are really finding it tough to deal with.
While we have been off line Alan was at A&E on Weds eve he has c inflamation in his wrist the one the canula had been in on Monday on strong anti biotics for 5-7 days .

Hi everyone, good to be back. I was starting to get withdrawal symptoms as have not been on for a few days.
I had my results last thursday and they were good and bad! The cancer is stage three (which I half knew anyway) but the sentinel nodes were clear, so hopefully chemo can start soon. I was tod there was Infiltrating ductal carcinoma with associated HNG grade DCIS (not sure what that means, despite going on to internet) and lymphatic permeation, vascular invasion. (Is that the same thing?)
...Hi All
Going for my 1st mri scan on thursday and I am very nervous about it. The consultant damaged my jugular bulb in the op and had to finish early so does not think he has all the tumour. It will need another op, hope not.

Jill has been in hospice approx 6 weeks now , and at present is fine . The Docs have told that there have been no less than 4 occasions, when they felt she would leave us, remarkably she keeps coming albeit not just the same as before . Her eyesight is now affected and so is her ability to work unaided . When we were told that no further active treatment was available , we found it very hard as a family to accept that we were to lose our youngest daughter ( 19) to this brain tumor . What we are thankful...
