Hi Nurses,
So yesterday we found out my best friend who has BRCA2 gene and has been through chemo, had a double mastectomy, 3 weeks of radiotherapy and is now on Olaparib. She had breast cancer and inflammatory skin cancer.
Yesterday got a telephone call to say she will never be rid of cancer as its in her cells.
Is this common? What are her chances? We know the meds now are for life and we can live with that as long as we still have her. So many questions, so much to plan, we are a little numb and I am sorry if this isn't making much sense.
I really appreciate you nurses for always being there for everyone.
Thank you for reading.
Jules
