More Bad News

Hi my forum buddies. I got bad news this morning when I had a follow-up with my lung surgeon. The CT scan I had last week shows two new cancers on my lung, just about the same area that I had a cancer removed 2 years ago. We discussed where we go from here and I made it clear that I'm not going through another surgery on my lung, along with all the surgeries I'm having re bladder cancer. She agreed with me that I've been through the mill for the last almost 5 years now and she understands where I'm coming from. She will order a PET scan as that will tell us what else may be going on. Certainly not what I thought I'd hear today as I actually don't feel too bad, other than the awful issues I'm having with this bladder cancer. Besides which, everyone tells me how well I look. I guess looks are deceiving for sure.

    Always good to see a 'better news' post and am mightily relieved for you that you have a longer light at the end of the tunnel - bet you wanted to give your surgeon/consultant a big hug.  Now time to continue with your recovery, give yourself some TLC and hope you next challenge can help some more.  You are a remarkable 'lady fighter' and I send heaps of hugs and best wishes.Jules x
