Hello Wilmadog, 

I am so sorry to hear about your fiancé's stage 4 colon cancer diagnosis. I hope you won't mind I have slightly edited your title to include more details about your fiance's cancer. This will ensure your post is more visible to others who have been affected by stage 4 colon cancer in a similar way. How amazing that the chemotherapy has been successful in significantly shrinking the cancer on his colon and liver. We love hearing stories like this so thank you for coming here and sharing these incredible results with us. It's good that he will be monitored closely and scanned again in 3 months' time and I am keeping everything crossed for you that it stays the same and doesn't grow again. 

This is very good news but I can understand the worry will always be there and it's completely understandable but he seems to be in very good expert hands and I hope that his results will continue to be good and that he will carry on being monitored very closely. It's probably also all hitting you now as you have a moment to breathe when he has no treatment and if you are finding that you are struggling to sleep, don't hesitate to talk to your GP about it who will I am sure have some good suggestions for you. It's important that you regain quality of sleep and life after everything you've been through with your fiancé recently. 

Best wishes to you and your fiancé,

Hi Lucie, thank you for replying. I am person who worries also but now it’s overtaking my life. It is amazing news that my fiancés tumours have shrunk, I feel like we are living on a ticking time bomb until the next scan, I can’t imagine how my fiancé must feel. I think I will arrange a doctors appointment & talk to them. Thank you so very much for your words of encouragement, I’m praying the next scan is good news also.

kind regards 

Susan
