Hi Beaumont44, 

I just wanted to say we are thinking of you during this stressful time. I guess the MDT meeting was today and I hope that you get an appointment soon to find out exactly what is going on. It's completely normal to be scared when dealing with all this uncertainty at the moment and after having been through all these tests. 

Let us know what you find out - you are not alone though and many members of our community have been through this before and will hopefully come and say hello soon and share their stories with you. While you are waiting, as there is nothing harder than waiting for a diagnosis, I thought I would share with you our helpful tips to help you cope while waiting for news. 

Best wishes,

Hi yes all good.  Beth still doing well with the stoma bag.  Just waiting for treatment to start.  Glad the procedure went ok.  Lots of love xx

Hi how are you all doing ? Where is beth with her treatment? Hope you're all ok xx

1. Hi how are you? Beth is doing ok.  She has had 8 treatments so far with 13 to go.  She has felt tired but does not seem to be as bad as she was when on chemo.  Xx

What treatment is she having ? Is there any talk of surgery yet ? So glad she's doing ok, im ok yeah bowels aren't 100% and i had to change my phone appt with hospital because of work which i wish I'd not done now but got another appt in 2 wks xx

She is having radio/chemo tablets 5 days week for 5 weeks.  They won’t scan her till 6 weeks after her last treatment.  Hope you get things sorted.  Beth is doing so well still with the stoma bag xx

Hi there I'm so sorry I've not been in touch had a few family probs , I have been thinking about you and Beth over last couple of days , how is she ? And how are you ? I'm due my first ct scan after all my treatment xxx

I hope everything is ok.  Beth finished treatment 6 weeks ago.  Has scans on Thursday.  Radio and chemo tablets were tough on her.  Just hope and pray the tumour has shrunk.  How are you doing? I have been struggling with everything.  Recently found out a good friend of mine has breast cancer, another friend a brain tumour.  All very scary xx
