Hi all!

my fiance's cancer journey has been one big emotional hell of a ride.. im so over the stress, the worry, and whats to come.. i have lost so many friends over it, i feel so alone and empty... dont get me wrong, i wouldnt leave his side for a minute but i just wonder when i will ever feel 'normal' again.. my darling fiance is classified as terminal but has a real fighting spirit... i cant imagine whats to come.. it doesnt really hit me properly and im scared.. what happens if i cannot handle the end of it? what will happen if i go crazy? very worried about it all 😞

I was diagnosed in April last year with grade 3, stage 4 breast cancer. At first we thought it was only a simple lump and all I would need was a lumpectomy and a little radiation, but after the surgery they found that it was a large lump and 17 lymph nodes were involved. I had a second surgery three weeks after the lumpectomy for a right mastectomy. Then I did six months of intensive chemo and then six weeks of radiation. I finally finished all this two weeks ago.

I am writing this on behalf of my husband Tim, who passed away at 4:30 this afternoon, 13 March 2012. The cancer was far more advanced and aggressive than either of us realised and he just couldn't do it anymore. Thank you to all those people who offered him support and words of advice, courage and wisdom. He appreciated it. Good bye Helen

Hi , I have had a very busy and emotionally draining week and I have just logged on to my computer. It was so nice to hear from other people who felt like me. Harker, commented on having Multiple Myeloma as well, and said the stem cells had been harvested. The actual transplant is nothing more than having these stem cells transfused back in. The main issue is that they have to reduce your immune system to zero and try to rid your body of any trace of the cancer with a very strong chemo.
