Gosh, that's a lot to take on board. I'm sorry you're having to go through this. It's a roller-coaster:  scans, waiting for results, waiting for treatment etc. I hope you have lots of support and people are being kind. x

Firstly,  I  have medical coverage as part of my employer contact. I joined a friend for a golf tournament in Thailand. We used this visit to have a comprehensive medial check. Found that my blood work was unusual and I was scheduled for Colonoscopy and endoscopy the following day. They discovered a tumour and I was scheduled for an operation the following day. Recovered for 5 days and few back to the UK. Cancer had metastasis to my liver and it took 5 weeks to arrange Chemotherapy. I've undergone 11 treatments so far. Side affects have varied every time and I've normally felt good to go after the first 3 to 4 days. Unfortunately the cancer is at stage 4 and treatment is only deemed as life enhancing. Always looking for other treatments which may change the outcome,  but I don't let this get in the way of living a useful and rewarding life with my family and some goals I had before this happened....
