Shelli, I am similar position. BC with secondaries in liver. Currently going through a foul, very strong chemo treatment. I am do over people telling me how long I have to live and a counsellor actually advising me that it was all down hill from here. After I questioned her on this she said I had to be realistic. I also have 3 gorgeous children with 2 still in primary school. I am very scared but I think I have to learn to be fearless and have a lot of faith in myself that I will live for many, many years. I too put food in my mouth for the sake of keeping my immune system in some kind of order. All food tastes like nothing; drinking is worse, I have not yet found any beverage I can enjoy the taste of at present. I'm tired all the bloody time. I want my life back( but apparently this isy life for the moment anyway. Thanks for your comments; they inspired me to write.
