Hi,
It seems surreal to even be writing these words but a few days ago my girlfreind and partner (36 years old) of 14 years was informed that the polyp or it may of been 2 polyps recently removed had cancer in them and that she would need scan (possibly CT or MRI i cant remember) and also a section of her bowel removing.
I think scan and surgery is planned for about 3 weeks time but no confirmation date yet. Im hoping against hope that somehow cancer was just in the polyps and somehow just localized and not spread and that this surgery is all she will need to make her better, we will have to see what the scans say.
Im really struggling emotionally swinging from feeling ok to very tearfull and fearful, trying to stay strong for her, this has all come out of the blue. I want to just hold her and "fix it" but i cant.
Thank you for listening.
