BAS*ARD cancer...

Louise in Leeds · Posted: Thu Jun 26, 2008 9:57 pm Post subject: BAS*ARD cancer...

....... My father has just been diaognosed with stomach cancer.

My parents live in Bulgaria, so its even more hurtful to know that he is so far away. Having said that though, I can not fault the hospital in Bulgaria though... my dad went in to hospital on Monday to see a specialist... the specialist made an appiontment for Tuesday for my dad to have a CAT scan and 10 blood tests.... my mum and dad got the results within 2 hours would you believe!

.... and all for £46! ... my dad is going back to hospital on Monday for an endoscopy and then they will do surgery... obviously he's upset and weepy.. but i've told him to think positive... he's a fighter and will beat it...

........ my SIL was also diaognosed with breast cancer in April, would you believe...

... luckily its not spread so its not as bad as it could have been. My husband had Hodgkins disease when he was 21 (hes 39 now) ..... we had been togethor for 3 and a half years... so don't mention cancer to me... it's a BAS*ARD!!

Sorry to hear that Louise, yeah its a horrible cruel disease. My mom died from bowel cancer, my dad from stomach cancer and my nan had cancer of the oesophogus (sp). My grandad had testicular cancer and an distant relative of mine has got Leukemia and then there is me with terminal breast cancer.

So im not a big fan of the word either

I had to go to the Lymphodema clinic today cos I have got lymphodema in my leg just to add to my troubles.

Anyhow, I was chatting to the nurse who is really nice, think she is a Yorkshire lass, and we were talking about cancer. She was saying that although it is a life threatening disease it is classed more as a chronic illness.
We were chatting away about how I was managing my illness and she was saying how well I was doing even though I still had the disease in me. I also read in the paper about I think it was some cricketers wife had died after 10 years of battling breast cancer. It suddenly really hit home, I had cancer and will never be rid of the disease.

Sitting there in the waiting room at the hospice today, scared the life out of me. Made me think, this is where people who have cancer or other life threatening illnesses usually end their lives. I have been living with cancer for 5 years and dont think many women last longer than 10. Iam scared stiff, I have probably only got 5 more years to live at the most.

Its such a wicked, vile and evil disease.

Sorry Silver, no he doesnt. He comes with me to see the Oncologist at my 3 monthly checkup, but for anything else I have to go on my own, got no friends round here either. Think the hardest part is going for my cancer treatment every three weeks. Having to sit in the waiting room and then have my treatment seeing other patients really ill with cancer is the hardest part - you know you will be like that eventually.

As the months go by instead of thinking thats another month I have survived, I tend to think thats another month less I have to live

Its very very scarey.
