Metastatic de novo diagnosed 20 July

Thank you all for your comments, this forum is amazing and so very helpful.  I’m extremely lucky to have a wonderful husband who is supporting me in just the right way for me.  A shoulder to cry on when I need it (usually around 3:00am!) and a ‘let’s get on and deal with this thing’ when I need strength.  Also, due to COVID, we have our daughter living with us, and she has been terrific.  I’d been worried that this might all be too much for her, as she has some health issues of her own, however she has shown me she is much stronger than perhaps I’ve given her credit for in the past.  I’m trying to keep busy and get as many things done as I can before the hip surgery, yesterday we did a big pruning job in the garden, which was a good diversion from endless appointments.  So nice to do something ‘normal.’
