Starting to believe this is true and it’s not a bad dream

God bless you, they are all treatable.I completely understand what you are going through.Please stay positive and keep yourself busy 

Shelski8,

I only found out I had cancer on Feb 7th, so am with you on the shock of it all, I'm beginning to realise it's a rollercoaster of emotions that nobody understands unless they have been through it, so on here is great to read other people's journeys.

Please try and stay positive ( I know its hard) but there are treatable and I've been reading a book by a gentleman that has had 17 diagnoses and told he had days to live numerous times and he is still her 10 years later, so I am always keeping the faith, always here if ypu need a chat or rant xx

Welcome, really sorry to hear your story, you’ve had an unimaginable time of it, really hope you’ve a good network around you. There are a couple of ladies on here living with stage 4 cancer and know hopefully you can still have some good time. I have had chemo with a lady who had been stage 4 for 5 years and was living a relatively normal life other than three weekly trips for treatment for 45 mins. Hopefully your chemotherapy will knock it back enough for them to stabilise it. How are you coping with chemo? All the best xx

How old are you? its a very devastating time, I lost my son within a year since his first diagnose after his stem cell transplant. He was health, fit boy with no medical issues at all and even his cancer was cureable

I’m 50, I’m incredibly sorry to hear about your son, really dreadful, this damn disease is so variable and so unfair x

It feels like being constantly punched in the stomach , the rug pulled out from under you , with every test , letter or call doesn’t it . I hope you’re not feeling too many SE with your treatments 

sending huge hugs 

L xx

I’m so very sorry to read about your son  

sending love and hugs

Hi shelski8

I'm sorry to hear of your diagnosis. hopefully the medical team have said that although its incurable it is treatable? I think this what we have to hang onto.

As mentioned above, some ladies have secondary cancer and this is stabilized and they live with cancer for many years. I also have TNBC and secondary cancer and my first chemo regime didnt work but I am hopeful the chemo i am on now will work. 

Are you scheduled for a scan?
