I'm still here! So many years after my metastatic diagnosis.

Just catching up - it's been a while.

Hello everyone, and hoping for the very best of health and happiness for you in 2025.

And wishing you all the very best for 2026!

Thank you to the friends I've met on here, and hoping to encourage anyone living with metastatic cancer, people like myself with difficult diagnoses. I'm still living with my Stage 4 cancer. But still looking after my grandchildren. Still enjoying life. Yes, I get tired, but wow what a wonderful life it is!

Hoping for your best outcome

    Hi Mare,  I have stage 4 breast cancer with mets in most bones.  I was diagnosed one year ago.  I would like to see your website and know your secret :)

    Hello Lee

    I think mare's secret is likely to be her zest for life. How is life treating you anyway? I summoned up the energy to go out last night to enjoy live music and a few drinks with friends. Although Im pooped today its done me a lot of good. Thanks for the many tips youve passed on to me.I got a new pillow for side sleepers and it has made a good improvementt in sleep quality. I think because my spine is better aligned causing less numbness and pins and needles in my arm and less pain in my ribs. Wishing you a nice day ahead.
