- @JulesD - Medical miracles happen quite frequently but we are never told of them.
Things that leave doctors scratching their heads saying this cannot be possible.
I know of 2 people who defied the odds and the prognosis given to them (imminent death).
One was my sister, the other my daughter.
Their stories are quite different but both had medicos who were flabbergasted by their outcomes claiming they had never seen anything like it.
(my daughter was in utero, my sister was on life support after a shocking accident)
So do not take the prognosis as the final outcome.
Anything can happen to change everything for the better.
My heart goes out to you but I would not accept the 2 year thing.
They need numbers because we ask.
No one knows anything for sure... - @JulesD i can't even imagine the heartbreak your family are going through. We are here to help you any way we can.
- Hi everyone thanks so much for the support and prayers bub and i are recovering very well from the sugary. Still got 12 section of chemo to go. Havent started yet but the thought of going back to those tired and sick day after chemo alone kills me.

- @JulesD You can always come here to talk about absolutely anything. There's always someone around with a shoulder, some empathy, some knowledge. None of us want to be on this shitty train, and you've got one of the worst seats... I am so sorry about that.
I loved what you wrote about being the sadness bomb in the room. That resonated with me; I'm so over it (click on my name to read my bio). One of my best friends with a very dark sense of humour says "no one wants to be you"!
Whatever happens you are going to experience the greatest love you've ever known, from your friends, from your family, from your child, for your child.
Get whatever help you need. If you don't know what it is, throw out some thoughts here. This collective hive mind is an amazing resource! We're here for you as much as you need us to be. Kate xox - hello JulesD & Renny2819

Soldiercrab - @Renny2819 and @JulesD As I read through your posts, pausing through tears I just want to say I am holding you in my heart, thoughts and prayers as you face unimagineable minutes, hours and days of uncertainty in ways that are unique to you.. May you both find strength and courage within the spirit of who you are. Big hugs. xo
- @JulesD There are no words adequate to say. You're right in that some of your experience is one shared by many of us but you're going through something that is so much harder. My only thought when diagnosed was that I needed 5 years to see my youngest through high school. I can't even imagine your feelings. My thoughts are with you and hoping for the best for you.
