My Dad was diagnosed with kidney, lung and cancer on the ribs just last week. I had my days of feeling low then somehow had a burst of energy and find myself trying to keep myself busy at all times to avoid thinking of what is happening to him. I research research research until I'm blue in the face. I have a couple of children to run around after and that has deffinately helped me get on with it. Although now we are waiting to hear what happens next. I can't bare the thought that they give him less than a year.
I know there is no deffinate answer but if the cancer has apread whether it originated from lungs or kidneys does that make it stage 4? If so can a stage 4 cancer patient with multiple cancers live past 1year? Can they survive to 5 years or more? I'm trying to take this one day at a time but I cant even think about the future anymore without feeling so low!
