Hi, 

I have just received the diagnosis of Stage 4 Oesophageal Cancer, it's deemed incurable as I have lesions on my liver shown to be cancer. I feel so surreal, I don't feel ill at all - only have a slight issue swallowing when I initially start eating then otherwise I'm fine. I'm due to start CAPOX chemo and immunotherapy asap (keep calling it KPop chemo !). 

I'm 52 and I feel positive but also feel very odd about looking into an uncertain future. The Drs were great, I've not got an "expiry date" but they mentioned the average if 12-18 months then in the next breath told me the length of immunotherapy treatment was either 2 years or 18 months! 

So hello! I am so sorry we're here, but I would welcome any positive stories just to keep my levels up!
