I am new to this community. I feel very lost. My husband has been diagnosed with Stage 4 Liver Cancer. He was on FU5 and Avastin for 12 months. He then went on to have Maintenance Treatment of the same chemo, but he was terribly ill after each session. He hasn't had chemo for 7 weeks now, and is feeling very well. His last scan showed that the lesions in his liver had increased in size. We are so shocked. He has now been offered Ireocatin (spelling ?), which will be given in smaller doses, over a longer period of time. This is called the Next Line of medication against this terrible disease called cancer. I would really appreciate any assistance you could give me in trying to hold myself together, whilst supporting him. There are so many questions I need to ask him, but I don't want to upset him. If I leave him alone to go to the shops, etc., am I being selfish ? I never want to look back on this time and have regrets - I need to be sure that everything I do, will be OK for him and for me. I look forward to receiving any advice from anyone in the same situation, or someone who has had a loved one suffering from Stage 4 Liver cancer.
Thank you.
