I’m writing this on behalf of my wife. She was diagnosed with Anal Cancer around mid October.
unsurprisingly the tumour which is about 12cm and sits between the lower bowel and the cervix (and exists also outside of the body) is continually Growing as she feels it.
up until now the pain has been manageable. A few weeks back she had a Stoma fitted - this has gone ok so far.
everyday things get a little worse now.
It’s not surprising that my wife thinks she cannot survive many more days like this especially as there is another 26 days and that’s just day 1 of a 5 week treatment plan.
i imagine there is unlikely to be people here in a similar situation, even in the past…
felt I had to write something and let off steam
sorry.
