Sounds like it's treatable from what you said which is a great start.
I would stay here just make it clear you're not meeting and enjoy the banter on the days you can be bothered with it or need a distraction
Wishing you all the best with your treatment xx |

call McMillian nurses or maggies house has a drop in centre just for a coffee.these guys will give you huge support ,just by way of chatting and some days surprise surprise the word or thought of cancer is never mentioned ,,just support , care and company,,,and to anyone not just your hubby ..I offer this advice and my own opinion if you or a loved one has cancer and you feel as low as low you can be visit a childrens hospice and see how strong and with such courage all the kids cope and live and I promise you will leave the building inspired yet humbled and go on to face your cancer with an inner strength you never knew you had ..good luck |

Best of luck to you both. Stay strong and support each other.
Other half had thyroid cancer 14yrs ago. Had an op, now completly clear.
I won't lie, there will be problems, troubles along the way. But sometimes, the ability to unload your troubles to others outside the problem is a god send.
All the best for the future.

Prayers and love to MrA...
I have personally experienced both the initial stages and terminal stages of this illness with friends family and strangers. This was due to my intimate ability as an ear to listen, and voice to council.
Sometime talking to a stranger who has lived through this life changing event, albeit not actually experiencing the disease itself, is useful.
Although MrA does not know me please understand there is an experienced ear to always listen to the concerns this life changing event will bring.
Much love. |

Good luck with it, I think trying to continue as normal may well be the best thing. Never a smoker but I had a lung cancer scare a few years ago. It transpired to just be scarring on the lung from when I punctured it years before. It was scary but just confirms, never take life for granted...

I've lost the two most important people in my life to cancer. My outlook in life changed from a nervous worrying wreck to, life for living go and live it before it ends.

Absolutely brilliant news and I am so pleased for you both on what must have been a traumatic time.
You are both an inspiration to people to show us all that when the horrible C word is said to you that it is not the end of the world if you have the will to fight and live.
Enjoy life to the full folks  |

amazing knowing survivors
Actually going for scans soon myself as they are unsure fully what's wrong with me but suspect something serious is up I've been putting the scans off for too long now in fear of the worst and it's prob the worst thing to do

Fear itself is the the most difficult hurdle you have to get over, the rest is downhill after that. PMA! Positive Mental Attitude, gets me through every time.
I'm sure if you face it head on you will feel better. xxx |

This is the best thread I've read on here for such a long time.
First and foremost to Mr&Mrs A for their inner strength and belief in defeating this illness well done to you both
Secondly to the spirit of camaraderie that goes on within the Fab community with posts of well wishing and sharing of your own battles
Humbled by all
