Quality of Life or Quantity they asked me?

@Dawnc sorry I don't get to the main forum much these days, so glad to hear how things have panned out for you. It does sound like being with your daughter was the perfect move, and glad that things were sorted and you will start treatment soon. As I read your initial post I actually wondered whether you mentioned of your Mum and Sister? and that the question was posed in context?? As you said about how they suffered? so I did wonder maybe it wasnt quite meant as you felt. I really dont think it had anything to do with you refusing treatment at 1st diagnosis. 

I was over treated 1st diagnosis in 2011, and I had a recurrence in the same spot in 2015 and had to have chemo then but no radiation as Id already had it. I think quality is talked about alot here on the Forum, due to the grueling treatments. It doesnt seem fair no matter how we look at it. I think we honestly make the right decisions for us at the right time. There is so much to consider and all our diagnosis and treatments are so different. Hindsight is a wonderful thing, I made decisions based on specialist opinions and they were right for me at each step...however we just dont have a crystal ball and I couldnt have known how my quality would be impacted as everyone. 

You are in a very safe and loving place so day at a time, I think you'll do very well. Hugs Melinda xo
