Hi. Just wondering if I'm going to find forums helpful or not. So here goes a trial...
Still reeling.... From a tad of twingy back in November (from lifting something heavy in the garden), this fit (ish) 61 year-old lady, fell & small mountain walker, skier, badminton player, weight lifter, etc, is currently chair bound in severe pain (hopefully being helped soon) and diagnosed, after a random painful shoulder x-ray, with S4 non-small-cell lung carcinoma with bone spread (inc spinal & collar bone fracture), something in brain, lymph and... Well, let's play hunt where next.
Not yet fully in the system, and have pushed a lot myself to get everything done asap - to be fair most clinical staff have been very quick, and mostly lovely ladies involved in my diagnostics and early palliative care - but it seems very shortly it's onwards with radiotherapy and systemic chemo. No prognosis given yet but I'm not unrealistic about where this is going.
Affairs just about in order, wills rewritten, quick wedding arranged... Practicalities to help Hubby; no kids or other family to speak if.
Blast and ***!!!!!!!
Thoughts to everyone else in similar boats.
