Hi JessicaRabbitSo sorry to hear this, it must be incredibly worrying for you. I found that the early uncertainty was the worst and once I had a treatment plan things got easier to handle, but I can empathise with what you are going through right now. I hope you find some ways to distract yourself until you get your results kn Friday. Good luck

Thanks so much for your kind words. I appreciate it so much. I felt unsure about posting but am glad I did.

4 years. Wow! What a journey. I hope your keeping well and that day is a good and kind day. 

Thanks again

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply and for your kind words.

I keep thinking that once I know and can form a plan, I'll be ok...... But today I cant get the words metastatic and secondary out of my head. Its such a roller coaster of emotions. 

I hope you are keeping as well as you can and your treatment plan is going according to plan. 

Thanks again, I'll let you know what they say on Friday xx. 

Hi  let us know how you get on Friday. Here for you. Jo x

Hey, not long back from the hospital.

Feel loads better now we know more about the cancer, its receptors and what the treatment plan will look like.

Gonna start with chemo. 

Awaiting MRI, CT scan etc xx

Hi there 

It feels so much better ( not really the best phrase !) when you have a plan doesn’t it . It’s still frightening and overwhelming but you feel you’re actually getting something when you’ve got a plan in front of you 

Good luck with the upcoming scans etc 

love L xx

Good you have a plan, just shout if you have questions.

It really does feel more managable when there is a plan!

I really hoped it would be a straight to surgery route so I could keep working for longer (Im self employed and my work is my muse) but that's not the way it goes.

Straight to chemo means my work wont be possible so Im gonna make the most of pre chemo, pre cancer life with my kids and family.

Having the weekend just me and the kids, a few more days of ignorance then I start sharing the news and await treatment..... 

Thanks so much for your support. 

How are you doing? 

Thank you, I definitely will! I think Ive just read your blod post on another thread about chemo and what you wish you had known before. So useful and helpful, thanks so so much for sharing!

I hope your keeping ok? xx
