My husband was diagnosed with bowel cancer march 2020.hes had radiotherapy and an op to remove tumor. They then discovered it had spread to his liver, so he started on chemo for 3 month. After chemo he had another scan, we were really hopeful of a good result, but the tumors had grown and then they discovered it had spread to his lungs as well. We got a call to say the tumors had mutated to braf600 and that did not have a good outcome. They have started him on a new treatment plan, the beacon plan, but said even with this he only has a median life expectancy of around 9 month. I just can't get my head round this, it is devastating. How on earth do you cope with this news, how to stop it taking over your thoughts. Its the last thing I think about when I go to bed n the first thing when I get up.
