I may not be the best person to give advice but I will have a try.  You will want to know how far the cancer has progressed and to what stage.   What options are possible for treatment and what percentage of success would be expected?  These - I would have thought - are the main questions and further questions would depend on the answers to them.  Take a notebook or piece of paper so you can jot down notes so that you don't forget anything important.    I am not the most knowledgeable person here by any stretch of the imagination but as you are going to see the consultant today I thought that someone should perhaps respond asap.

This reply is a bit back to front.  I want to say how sorry I am that you are in this situation after having already been through the mill a couple of years ago.  Please do come back and tell us how the discussion went (if you feel up to doing so); I and others here can then chat further.  Annie

Well the good thing is that you made contact - it's a good start.  I came across this forum almost a year ago and found myself wanting to talk and share experiences.  It has been good for me and I hope for others also!  How are you feeling within yourself? The prospect of being a grandmother (twins! wow!) is exciting and I can understand the added concern in your prognosis.    As you say - bittersweet - but the prospect of holding your grandchildren would be wonderful.  Keep in touch and let us know how the PET goes.  Annie
