After many days of waiting, tests and scans was finally given news that the cancer is operable and not spread. I am scheduled for surgery to have it removed and believe it may have been caught early enough but at the moment this is welcome news to me. Not out of the woods yet but I may be able to finally sleep tonight.
Now have to wait for new appointment and finally surgery next month.
Ashley that is excellent news. At least the terror should fade. The waiting snd hoping is just unbearable at times. Will you get away without chemo/radiotherapy ?
Ashley. That’s good news. Yes sleep is in order tonight. Just take everything one day at a time.
best wishes and keep in touch

No questions too daft to ask.
Hi Ashley
Thats a hurdle to face if you have to but fingers crossed.
If you do need RT it’s doable if difficult but if this old lady can do it so can you xx
