  • Morning all I notice that I have received no reply’s to someone on a similar pathway as mine .

    my journey started in February when I broke my femur was in traction for 5 weeks waiting for the bone tumour results to come back bynin . 
    they operated to pin and plate the femur which I thought was fine now 5 months later they say it was nota bynin  tumour but a sarcoma and I have to have chemo and they have given me two options  after chemo leg salvage or a high knee amputation I am looking for some one who has gone through the same or someone that has come through the other side
