Hi everyone
We got the news in September of stage 4 fast growing two tumours one they could sort acess the other not so much, in operable 6 to 8week survival chances we'll we still here not sure how, think alot of stubborness and my auntie will to keep going and our use of humour and banter and the way me and my family have always been if a doctor says you can't do a thing or there's a barrier limit you bet we gunna break it, doctors missed it for two years unfortunately as liked to hide. Took while to get the drains sorted out though tumour did have fun trying to grow out a tube, and get pain levels managed slowly deteriorated but last few weeks have been a struggle, gone from beable able to eat the meals she want to enjoy her favourite lasagna to the frustration of last week not be able finish a 6 box nugget and small fries to as can't really eat much, can still have a little of the protein shake , today she mange half a yogurt. Her condition recently caused muscle wastage in her legs and one thing that kept her fight was aslong a I can stand up I can fight and she has a slight fall , we got the doctors coming to do a visit tomorrow but are we losing the battle, they done vist in the past and seem kinda surprised my auntie is still as mobile and cheerful and alert as she was, she still smiles throughout pain though we have the nice nickname killer king when it's pain med time, they seem very surprising she her we got a hospital bed in January, ive asked the doctors how long have we got and they don't give helpful answers one being how long is a piece of string . My cousin does the caring for my auntie during the night she has learning needs if the time is getting closer to use losing her I don't want them to face that alone
