My wife was treated for stage 3 cervical cancer last year and battled it well with radical treatment and seemed to come out the other side smiling .. unknown to us that the cancer had spread to lymph nodes in the chest area although it’s small we were told this is a metastasis and she is not curable can it explained why something so small compared to the original Tumour is going to take her life .. treatment is available but there is no cure !!! Why ??? 

  • Hi @ligar and welcome to the community, though sorry to hear about your wife, mine has Leiomyosarcoma so somewhat different and tis has been incurable from the start. Janice has had two rounds of chemotherapy and her cancer is now stable and has been for about 6 years now, we are definitly living with cancer rather than anything else.

    Dealng with your owm emotions when a loved one has cancer can be really difficult you might find our information on the emotional effects of caring helpful.
