New secondary diagnosis

Thank so much for your wonderful support I saw my oncologist today and was a bit disappointed with my appointment. She jumped from one issue to the next and even confused my daughter so it isn't my chemo brain that made her hard to follow. I will have a pep ? Scan in next few days then will commence zomara once a month. She is quite concerned about lesions on my kidneys and liver still and has ordered more bloods and a ct focussing just in kidneys and liver. The lesions in my kidneys were picked up about 8 years ago and have been monitored closely but not sure when liver issues started I have to see a dentist ASAP to get my teeth checked before starting zomara as it can cause dreadful complications to jaw if teeth have cavities etc she said. I see her again in 3 weeks She is making phone contact with radiology to go through my ct and bone scan with reporting doctor. After my appointment my beautiful daughter Tara and I had lunch then went to the movies and saw The Heat. Great for anyone who needs a good laugh as we did I started a sustainability in early childhood centres tafe course tonight which was fun and will keep my brain busy till end of year. I was glad to hear I can work through my treatment as at this stage no chemo. Last treatment I had to stop work as I am a preschool teacher and couldn't take the risk of getting an infection. i returned to work in november. Working with children is my passion and nothing keeps you as happy as when a child throws their arms around you and says I love you :) My gorgeous friend Mich I'm counting down the days till we get to catch up :) Thanks again for your support Mel xxx

Hi Mel, so sorry to hear your news. We are all here to support you. Thinking of you. Love Chris xx

Hello my BCNA BEASTIE (BESTIE).  Life is just so blooy unfair sometimes.  Why????? when you have already endured so much and only such a short time ago Why?????  I so wish I could wave a magic wand and make all this horrible horrible stuff go away.  I wish I could reach my arms across the miles that separate us to give you big hugs and to take the hurt, the sadness, the anger and the questioning of why me away and to just make it all better.  I can't right now but I will be with you soon.  The Summit is approaching quickly now and then we can get to spend some quality time following this just sitting on your lounge chair with your precious lil menagerie of animals around us and talk for hours like we have done before.  It won't be long and I can give you the hugs I so wish I could give right now.  I wish I could be there for you now to hold your hand through all the appointments and tests you will be going through and to take the sadness away.You know I am thinking of you every minute of every day.                      "NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE TO A WILLING HEART"  Sending  you lots of love today, tomorrow and always, Mich xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Yes a real buggar!!! We all live in the fear that it will return. Stay true to yourself, do what you can and live life to the full. I know BC has changed me, for the better. Take care and stay positive. Cyber hugs. Al xxxx ( Perth Pink sisters)

You have every right to be pissed off. 

I have no real words of wisdom to offer you. Sorry to hear you're going through this. Lean on the ladies and men here who have travelled the road you're about to embark on.
