I was disgnosed 3 weeks ago wirh incurable cancer. All that has been found are cells in the fluid drained off my lung. I am so frightened and see an oncologist on Wednesday to find out what is happening. At the moment my life just seems to be on hold and in slow motion. I am trying so hard to to be strong and positive but failing miserably. How do other people cope with this situation. I feel so weak and useless.
Was a great suggestion slready feeling the warmth of the group xx
Hi Moi, It is good to see you post again. In saying that, I have been on holiday and we didn’t have WiFi so I’ve not managed to Prost for two weeks now. It is difficult trying to catch up! I think I will make this day 1 and not go back but go forward and pick t up as I go along!
How fantastic you are still in the Stable Mabel club, long may it continue!
Love Annette x
Good morning all, a little overcast here this morning, but very warm, maybe the sun will come out later.
Annette yes I'm still kicking lol. I'm like you just picking up as I go along. At the moment I'm sitting in bed with a coffee, but will have to get up soon as we're off to a hospital appointment for my Ray, chest clinic for tests. He's doing good othere wise, he's still my better half, keeping me in line lol. Chat later lovely. XX

Good afternoon J Daniels and welcome to the site. Apologies for being late to welcome you, I've been so tired for a few days. Good luck today with the oncologist, I hope he can help with your anxiety by giving you some sort of encouragement that your life's not over. He'll possibly give you details of treatment that you can expect that'll put your mind at ease.
I was diagnosed with an incurable bone marrow cancer in March 2015 and I was just like you, game over, worried, petrified even. Yet here I am now, still going, 3 treatments a week, every week and still above ground. I get my latest blood results tomorrow to see my latest blood picture. Fingers crossed.
Take care J Daniels and again, good luck for today.

Good afternoon Moi, good to see your name on the site again. I've been back for a couple of months now and in one of the posts a few days ago I mentioned that my elder son and his wife are expecting a baby around the end of the year. We're so pleased for them because they have been trying for years now.
Speak soon Moi

Another grandchild on the way, just marvelous for the Happy couple and granddad and grandmother, it's lovely seeing your family growing. I'll have to wait till the grandkids to produce any, well the eldest 3 have no intentions and the youngest 2 still in senior school. So we just have to spoil the 5 of them 4 boys 1 girl. We are well and hope you and Mrs. Tvman are OK. XX
