Good morning to you all just thought I would introduce myself.My name is Brian I have been diagnosed with stage 4 incurable rectal cancer which has spread to my liver and lungs. Prognosis is not good but I am fighting. Had my 2nd course of chemotherapy last week. Still getting used to it all.
Hi Moi yes I have fantastic support from my family and friends it's times like these you know how strong your family and friends network is I count myself so lucky. This disease is so cruel, but to be honest I knew I was ill but my wife came first we spent 35 years happily married as I said to a doctor when I was diagnosed to me it proves we was soul mates.
Thank you for the welcome, hope you don't mind I read your profile I must admit I had a tear in my eye reading it. My family are aware I cannot be cured in more ways than one especially my sense of humour. They are keeping me occupied with planning up and coming days out big family holiday in July so as they all say I have plenty of time to do what I want to do as long as it doesn't stop them planning things for me to do. Already I have taken comfort from reading all my welcome messages.
