Possible reoccurrence?

Hi 

Firstly I don’t want your husband to have to endure anything more either as you both went through so much !

However scans can be a complete life line as they can often catch things whilst they are still manageable. He has an innovative team and they are going to take good care of him !

These issues are horrible. We got a few bumps along the way but it does not mean they don’t have a plan of action. 

I would think the oncologist wants to chat this through with you both ! When was the scan taken ? Was it mid chemo ? 

If your mind goes to the thought of a recurrence, as mine did at times , I would also think of treatment options that they might have lined up to balance it out ! One thing for sure he has significantly cut down the tumour burden he initially had . It was more than one step to get to no evidence of disease for my mum but with the help of a diligent team who were all over the details as difficult as it was it ensured prompt action ! 
take care ,

Thank you Court. The scan was over a week ago and it was just after he's 2nd lot of chemo he has 4 more rounds left it's just so worrying isn't it x

For sure it’s horrible . He is chemo responsive and that’s a big plus . My mum had an immediate recurrence in her liver . It was soul destroying to start with . But I did have a belief that she could respond to chemo again ! This opened up the second surgery option that put an end to it !

Not the route she would have wanted to go . However I now  look back at those scans as complete life savers along with her excellent team !

Of course they may just feel it’s a settling process in a newly resected bowel so hold on till you get a chat and I am sending you loads of virtual strength as I get how dismantling and exhausting this is .

Take care ,

The scans are definitely life saving aren't they your mums journey is very reassuring I have had a read through it. Xx
