I was diagnosed with incurable lining of the lung cancer last October.
it was a bolt out the blue. I’m 77 and have kept myself super fit. Climbing mountains, hills, walking miles with my dog. Plus attending up to 7 fitness classes a week. I stopped smoking 43 years ago.
I’ve had 4 cycles of chemo and had a MRI scan yesterday to see if my cancer is responding to treatment. It’s been a hard and scary road to climb. I’m so glad that I’m connected to fellow incurable cancer patients who will understand. I was born hard of hearing so I never like using the phone.
Mentally I go into meltdown when I think what my life was like and what it’s like now and wondering what the future holds. But yesterday I had a lovely day. After my MRI scan we took a trip up the North Wales coast and had fish n chips by the sea and we walked the dog along the front.
I’m surprised that there are such a variation of treatments. My 1st and 2nd chemo was awful but my 3rd was a bit better, probably because I knew what to expect. My 4th wasn’t as good as my 3rd. It was hard not being able to talk to someone to compare their experiences but now I have you.
thank you
Judy
