I was diagnosed with fourth stage metastisised breast cancer in 2013. I was given months to a year to live. The cancer was found in four places. My right breast 8 lymph nodes under my arm a patch on the main artery in the back of my head and has eaten out my first vertebrae. They removed it from under my arm and my breast.

Not sure I am happy with the latest result at 2.1 but it is still dropping as the April test was 2.3. I'll check today's blood test results before Christmas and then probably not bother again until Sept/Oct 2017.

Started off 3 weeks ago with just muscle aches and pains. They just kept getting worse even when at Lake MacQuarie visiting the kids and meeting Miss Audrey 19 month old granddaughter for the first time.

all our plans all our dreams and goals all stolen and what remains is just a huge black void. i try to keep busy and i've been working in part time and temporary jobs since cancer stole our future but lonliness, isolation, anger and my own health issues have meant that this is only short respites and all returns with a smash and a bang.
