Hi Lynne. Sorry to meet you under such difficult circumstances. I am in a similar boat to you. I was diagnosed with mets in my liver & spine in 2015.

I am like you a very pragmatic & organised person. So I've made sure my will is up to date & I have powers of attorney in place. But it is too early to consider funerals etc. I know the news of mets is overwhelming at first, but just take it one step at a time & continue living life as best you can.
