Would like to hear from anyone else who has been diagnosed with cancer just when you’re moving into a new life phase ie children growing up, lots of plans to enjoy time and trips away with my husband.
I`m so sorry to hear about that your c is incurable - must be so hard to think about this - I was diagnosed with stage 2 and just finishing my 4th chemo cycle now (if it worked and no spreds I will find out in few weeks time...).
I have 4 yrs old son and in first few days after found out my diagnose I didn`t know how serious and what chances I have. He was just about to graduate from pre-school and start new chapter of Primary school life - it was hard to think I might not be there when he will finish Primary.
I was devastated but in that few days we have spent as much time as possible as family doing only positive things - also finishing some tasks from my to-do list.
From myself I can just tell that take your time and start living the life you wanted - go for trips and be with family. There is no reason why you have to wait for all these amazing things what could happen :)
I`m positive and believe there are miracles in that world and who knows - what is now incurable in few weeks can be treated for once and forever... Medical studies discovering something new every day - and I really believe and keep my fingers crossed for you :)
Thanks for your reply. Hope your treatment goes well for you and you’re not suffering too many side effects.
It’s just so difficult to think about not being there for my daughters and all the milestones they have to come. Luckily we have had had the chance to make fantastic memories so far in their lives, we like the simple things in life
Cancer is so cruel it doesn’t just take one life it takes away from the ones left behind too! Most days I’m positive thinking ‘well I’m here now’ but it’s the memories I wanted to be part of throughout a ‘normal’ life that’s the hardest to take!
