Hi all, I turned 60 this year, been nursing for 42 years, mostly MacMillan.
Went to the GP last year and was diagnosed with a haemorrhoid, no FIT test done. I am now 2 weeks post op from AP resection and stoma. Just had the call that 18 out of 19 lymph nodes r4emoved were cancerous. I’m due to start 8 cycles of chemo and I’m scared stiff. I feel so well!
The last 24 months both my parents and my son died. I now have to break this to my other 2 adults children, both nurses. Financially self employed, no idea what to do really! Currently thinking shove the chemo!!
