Got rough time for really bad

Saw my Breast Cancer Specialist today & he said I looked the best since started over a year ago.  Showed off my free breast enlargement 🤣🤣 In 2 months  breast has has really grown got another lump under breast by nipple & lots orange peel. 

It shows much bigger even in clothes.  Will need it's own postcode soon.  He says now 3 to 6 months until really bad nice way of saying dying & if I do end up with needing kidney dialysis in a few months things will be much worse & if don't have dialysis downhill very quickly.  Feel relieved he has agreed with my inner thoughts.  We agreed I keep trying to enjoy life.

I'm really sorry to hear about your situation, but I'm glad to see you're staying positive and enjoying life despite the challenges. Your attitude is truly inspiring. It sounds like you and your specialist are on the same page, which can be reassuring. Remember to cherish every moment and lean on your support network when you need to. Also remember the importance of using only high-quality drugs from reliable pharmacies, for the best effect in treatment and avoiding serious side effects.

 

Keep your spirits up and continue to live life to the fullest—your resilience is amazing! 🌟
