Because of the rapid deterioration of the breathing, I'm not strong enough for treatment,  So that's that then.

    Are they saying they can do no treatment? That sounds harsh and I hope they can do something

    So sorry to hear this Smallceefer is there no way they could half the chemo dose or even radio, which i am still no for a 2-3 days more, the reason i ask is, my radio dept is still bizy every day and the other day when they stopped my chemo was told people are still having it but only a hand full, so i am not sure if the (people) are very sick or have a good chance of winning?

    Tell the truth im bricking every day getting on that under ground train, GOOD LUCK X

    Sorry to read this, words cannot say how you must be feeling right now. Have they referred you anywhere for support and or counselling to help you with processing this? There is the line here too 0808 808 00 00.

    I know it may be far too soon, but I was offered to meet the hospice when I became incurable. It was a good decision to say yes and I am fond of the staff there.

    I wish I could say something helpful, but I know there is nothing to be said that would come under that category right now.

    Ray, sorry to hear that it is worrying you. Treatment at the best of times is hard to do, let alone right now. You are nearly through now, keep going and stay safe.

    Please remain positive you will be amazed at what you can achieve, practice your breathing and tell yourself you can do this. Sometimes having the diagnosis can put you on a down hill spiral. I have read alot of positive stories and if there is a chance of treatment focus on the good and give it all that you have to get that chance. Please believe you are strong enough!! Xx

  • Hi Ray

    thankful you’re nearly done with treatment
