I've read a handful of posts and threads.
The search tool didn't flag up angiosarcoma.
The posts I've read were from people who have cancer (I don't at present).
The comments I've read on the various posts make me feel like an imposter for even posting this.
I don't need any warm wishes. Many of you are on the front lines of this.
I just want some facts and information.
My mother in law just got diagnosed yesterday with angiosarcoma. She previously had breast cancer around 2 yrs ago and underwent radiotherapy. Now it seems she has an aggressive angiosarcoma and is facing a radical mastectomy in the week ahead.
I love her. I don't know how I'm supposed to process this. But I need to. And I need to be informed so I can be the rational party in all this for my wife and the rest of our family.
Additionally... last month my cousin was diagnosed with a glaioblastoma in her occipital lobe. She's had surgery and her prognosis isn't fantastic. In fact it's terrible.
I'm not first hand in either of these situations. So I just want to express my frustrations, and send my hope to all of you who are not me on this forum.
I almost said something other than frustrations. But that's it. I have no condolences or pity for any of you. I have frustration and injustice. I'll carry the hope for all of us too. I cling to that always.
I'll be the angry, hopeful guy in the corner.
I don't know where to begin.
I send you all my justifiable anger, and my unwavering hope.
Facts will help me to process this all and to help my loved ones process it. While I try to be angry on everyone's behalf, and also mostly just cling to hope..that sounds so hollow. But before I deleted the uncountable nunber of times I said a really bad curse word it resonated with more sincerity.
I send my love to you all.
