Hi Wendy
I was diagnosed with mets to my bones at the same time as the primary. That was in July 2009. I have had my ups and downs, but overall I am living a pretty good life. I felt fairly scare at diagnosis but as the time went by I began feeling optimistic.
Since then I have quit work, been on a family cruise, travelled half way around Australia and just this year had a 7 week trip to Europe, including England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. I am not saying things are always easy but I feel I have achieved so much in the past five and a bit years.
I try to not think to far ahead and keep my mind in the present. I took up meditation and try to exercise every day, when I can. Good luck on your upcoming experiences and remember that bone mets are not normally a death sentence. Sending you much Love, Light and Rainbows <3
