Here we go again

Hi Dani

Thank you for your kind words. As I just said to Chris I am going to have to take it day by day and work with the challenges as they arise. Easy to say at the moment but when the reality happens not so easy.

I am so lucky to have such a supportive husband and family as there are many out there who have to go it alone and that is really tough.

Wishing you and your family a very Happy Christmas. I am going to make the most of mine.

Love Lyn

Aww,thats awfully.I same as you more surgery 3 weeks ago .I just got to 4 years exact and it decided to rear its ugly head .Like you said we have lots to see and do ,so we fight .Wishing you all the best 

Hi Sigankitsa

Not you too. I’m sorry to hear that you had to have another operation. You wouldn’t believe it after 4 years you would think that it would have the common decency to give up. Cancer is so unpredictable isn’t it ?

I have definitely skipped the healthy gene somewhere. My mother lived to 92 years and my father is still alive at 97 years and never a sign of cancer between them.

We just push on though don’t we. I have definitely got many things to be thankful for as since my cancer was first diagnosed when I was 59 I have had 4 more grandchildren and had some really nice trips. You don’t take things for granted after a cancer diagnosis so I have tried to pack in as much as I can over the years.

Wishing you all the best during your recovery and I hope that the cancer you have decides to give it a rest.

Best wishes

Lyn

So sorry to read your news Lyn. I have just been catching up so a bit late. I'm hoping you have an easier time with it. You've been here before so at least you'll be a little more prepared for what's to come.

All the best,

Thanks little fi. Yes you are right as I have been there before I at least have an idea of what to expect. Don’t’ know if that is necessarily good though as sometimes ignorance is bliss. However I am going to take it one day at a time.

Hope all is going well with you.

Lyn

Thanks Lyn, I'm in the same boat, more surgery in Oct, completed radiotherapy Nov 23rd and still having immunotherapy. incurable but treatable at the moment so keep on believing I will be here for quite some time yet!

Hi little fi

I am sorry to hear that you had to go through more surgery and radiotherapy. It’s always disappointing when that cancer rears its head again, pretty inconsiderate of it. It’s great that you are having immunotherapy as I have heard good reports of results from it on this forum. I hope your recuperation is going well.

Knowing that others such as yourself are going  through similar issues and in the same club, 'incurable but treatable' is really helping me so I don’t feel so alone at this time.

I am still waiting for my PET scan as everything closes here over Christmas and New Year and I won’t know anything until the week of Jan 10^th as my surgeon’s office is closed until then. It will probably go pretty fast after that.

I am currently making the most of the holidays, catching up with family and trying to put the countdown to Jan 10^th to the back of my mind. My mouth is a bit sore after the biopsy but regular Panadol is helping.

I am thinking of you and wishing you all the best during your recovery time and wishing you many more healthy years to come.

Hi Lyn

I'm so sorry to hear you have to have another operation.  Apologies also for my late reply to your post - I missed it somehow and have just caught up.

Sounds like you have great support to get you through again and of course we'll be here for you.  You're such a fabulous asset to the forum with your thoughtful and insightful posts.

Thinking of you.

Hi Lyn. That’s a real stab in the back after all you’ve been through. All you can do is plug on. This isn’t easy this journey is it? Hugs. Xxx
