Chemo or no chemo.

Recently been diagnosed with liver/kidney and cancer in my lymph nodes. They said it isn't curable. But they have offered me chemo but they said I'd have to go into hospital to have it done over 2 days and that scares me. I feel alone with it all at the moment too. I got a partner but I don't like to put pressure on her too much but I'm really struggling with my emotions and what to do for the best. Is there any point putting my body through the chemo if the end is still I lose my battle to this disease. What have others done in this kind of situation.

  • Hello,

    I am sorry to hear what you are going through and the dilemma you are facing with chemo.

    I watched a Horizon documentary last night by Hannah Fry called Making sense if cancer which explores this dilemma. It should be on bbc iplayer and is definitely worth a watch.

    You are the only person who can decide what feels best for you but having as much information as possible is a good place to start.

    Wishing you the best
