I had a radical nephrectomy but cancer has spread. A lump has been diagnosed. Given estimate 2 years as not interested in other treatments, unless more surgery may help.

im 75 feel I’m leaving early that’s ok. Happy with that. Take it day by day and then I guess hospice.

  • Hi  sorry to read your post

    As you already know the Community has various support groups (discussion rooms) so can I suggest that you consider joining our supportive Living with incurable cancer - incurable patients only group. This is a safe place to talk to others who may have a similar diagnosis to ask questions and get support.

    If you'd like to connect in with a group click on the Green (Bold) link I have created above. Then once the group page opens click on the black banner that says [click to join] at the bottom, or the [Join] button under "Group tools."

    You can then introduce yourself by putting up a ‘new post’ by clicking in the box near the top right with + New or + (Depending on the device you are using) and you are ready to go. You could copy and paste the text from this post into your new post.

    Macmillan have many support platforms so do check out the Macmillan Support Line is open 8am-8pm (timings may differ across services) 7 days a week on 0808 808 00 00. These services provide cancer information, practical information, emotional support, benefits/financial guidance or just a listening ear. We also have our Ask an Expert section but do allow a few working days for a reply.

    All the very best.
