Diagnosis day

Hi Nananaps . Not the news you were hoping for. Bit of a blow but they will work out a plan going forward for you. Early days yet, but once you see an oncologist you will know what you are heading for. It will take a while to sink in. If its any help, I was T3pG3 in to the fatty outer layer. I went through the chemo/ chemoradiotherapy and tolerated it well. Best wishes.

Thanks Rily

That is just what I needed to hear! 

Big girl pants on and getting things done now. 

Hello Nananaps, I concur with everything Rily has said. I had chemotherapy then chemo radiotherapy which was fairly easy to tolerate. Good luck, stay well. Garviv

Hi Garviv

Thanks also, the feeling of not being alone here makes such a difference. 

Talking to family and friends is lovely but I feel very protective of them and try not to let the vulnerable side be seen.

I really do appreciate the replies

Agree with rily  wise words. Not the news you wanted to hear, but you know what you are up against and get cracking with your tx plan. Wishing you positive vibrations, Leo

You sound amazingly positive, having had something of a shock with that diagnosis. At least you know what you are dealing with AND have a treatment plan. Hope all goes smoothly for you.

I think it is very important especially with your family to tell them how you feel:  Frightened, frustrated, angry etc they will understand and support you more. Garviv

Thanks Leo

Really appreciate it

Thanks Teasswill

One step further forward than yesterday hey! 

I completely agree, they are extremely supportive but it's normally me that holds everyone together, fixes things when they break. I find it hard being the vulnerable one I think I am trying to say.
