hi everyone hope your all coping ok and believing 100% you'll beat it, I had my results this morning, and I explained to my new oncologist I'd been having a little pain in my ribs, and he said I'll show you why, I thought I'd pulled a muscle, but there's a bit of cancer in the lowest rib, that explains the pains I've been having there, it seems a little bit of cancer survived and has been growing for 6 months or so, the rest of my cancer is still dormant so that's good, so I have 5 lots of radiotherapy mon-fri then get scanned again in 4-6 weeks and take it from there. Dont feel worried by this, quite confident it'll get sorted and then move on to becoming cancer free. Take care and wish you all the best oh and look out for the new campaign by Roy Castle Lung Cancer foundation in November, I make an appearance on there, don't laugh!!! lol don't be afraid of lung cancer!

Dave 😊👍❤
