Secondary breast cancer

Hi this is my first blog,

I have been living with mestatic breast cancer for 4 months now, well that is when I found out that the cancer had spread to my skull, spine, pelvis, ribs, throat, chest wall and 2 weeks ago I was told that it is now in both my lungs.

I am still working full time, now that the pain has been managed, it's amazing the treatments they have out now, I thought I was going to be bed ridden with the pain.

Though I think the best medicine is having a positive mind, faith and HOPE.  I know there is no cure for my cancer now, but there is always HOPE as new treatments are coming out that will prolong my life. I could still be around for many more years to come, well I am going to be around for many more years to come, that's better thinking.

I praise the Lord for helping me with his courage, spirit and wisdom.

  • Welcome to the group max1ebob. Sorry to hear that it has spread so far. A positive mind is a great help in this journey with cancer. Freedom from pain is also wonderful!

    I found out that I had metastatic breast cancer two weeks after my initial diagnosis in 2011. I am living a full and happy life and know other ladies that have been around for many years with secondaries. Hopefully you will too. Lynnemh 

  • I hope this finds you well. Such horrible news, but we can live, and live well with this terrible thing. After four months the news will still be very raw. I can imagine how you must be feeling.

    Where abouts in the country are you?
