It's been a while

Hi all, It's been a while since my last post & once again my world has shifted due to this horrendous disease. My journey is to take a new path. After a short lived celebration - your doing well, come back in three months time, the disease has dropped off in my body again. Previously on Janine's cancer journey - breast tumour = gone! Lymph tumour = gone! 3 liver mets down to 1. Cause to celebrate! In my scan 31/12/13 lymph nodes were enlarged but professors words were "don't worry about that, it's the radio logger justifying their position." Now I don't claim to have medical knowledge so I took that quote & ran with it. Hello......where am I today, just three months later. Breast tumour = back! lymph tumour = back, with the wonderful addition of a met in my frontal lobe. Funny thing was I am now aware of this & I wasn't even due to see him until last Friday. Only my guardians were watching over me & a lack of communication in the public hospital has worked in my favour as I have a new oncologist & she ordered all of the tests & has wasted no time in developing an action plan. Needless to say I won't be going back to see the professor as I do feel that his approach or lack there of has seen this occur. Thursday I see a nuero about my brain, then we go from there. I finish work for the first time every in two weeks & that is very daunting for me as I have never not worked. I figure second time round I will be kinder to myself & have a break & give this fight my all. Whilst it's not great, to me it's another hurdle & I have no intention on giving into the beast. Oh & a majorly important note. I am booked on my first ever cruise on May 10th & I have told them to work it out as I am going .xxx Remaining upbeat!
