Hi Wendy,
Sorry to hear about your bone mets. I was diagnosed with bone mets earlier this year, 12 years after my primary BC. Now its in my spine primarily with possible spots in the hip (iliac) and ribs. It really sucks but I'm grafeful it isn't worse. I'll be following the responses to your posts as a lot of what you've described applies to me too, especially all the emotions.
I found it so interesting reading about how you've categorised your friends' reactions! Gotta love those 'Angels in disguise'. I have a few of those as well thankfully. It's unreal what those in the other categories have said to you! I'm interested to hear more.
By the way, I love your photo!! It made me chuckle and I think humour is great when we're dealing with secondaries and all the uncertainty that comes with it.
All the best
