Hi all

my partner has just been diagnosed with rectal cancer and has at least 4 mets on his liver. We are currently waiting for an appointment with an oncologist. We don’t know where to start but it would be so good to hear your stories of hope as it all seems so bleak at the moment……

  • Hi  , 

    Try not to panic (easier said than done).  I’m stage 4 and they are aiming at a full cure with my treatment.  A friend had it come back twice as lung mets and is now about 12 years cancer free.  

    trust your team, there will probably be lots of scans and then the mdt team will make a plan.  Once the plan is in place it will feel more manageable.  

    wishing you all the best!
