Update since yesterday. Got me latest scans and labs back an doesn't look good. My cancer in my liver has consumed my entire liver, lung got larger..which means the Exemestane and ibrance has done nothing, no progress. I am now turned over to Hospice car and where I will spend my last weeks. months, etc. No telling how this is going to play out. Also scared to literally death.

I am so sorry to hear this. A dear friend of mine was just given the exact same prognosis in November. She was my battle buddy, now I continue to battle without her. Know that I am praying for you and for your family. Miracles happen every day, but hoping that you can find peace, as she did, as you move into this phase. May God be with all of us as we continue to fight.

Sister/Warrior as long as there is breath in your body God has the ability to work a miracle. I am one of Gods miracles. Don't give up fight.An oncologist with 38 years experience said I would be dead 9 years ago.Surprise, surprise, surprise I am still here, with no evidence of disease in my body communicating with you. Stay strong. God bless you and your loved ones .

Hey, going through old posts and found this sad message from the lady who went on hospice. I’m writing to see how your beautiful life is! Your post touched me as you never gave up!! I’m hoping this finds you going strong and another 9 or more years. Clair

Sister/Warrior I pray God's supernatural healing for you, my loved ones, and my Sister/ Warriors, as I travel this journey now with two cousins, and a friend, who all trust, and believe God can heal them as God has healed me. If God made a decision to give me entry to heaven tomorrow, I still would be blessed that I had almost 10 joy filled years of life on this planet we call earth. Amen XoXoXo

You are more brave than I am if you are going to Hospice, If I knew when my body going to die,and my spirit will go to God, My time would be at a beautiful ocean or Mountain top to see the last sunrise or sunset, and not hook up to machines,hearing beep beepbeep.for the last breath of air,and your heart stops, that is straight nerve-wracking.

Just know Jesus is on the other side,waiting for you.

I am terminal also,

Blessing.

If you believe in God, death should not be as bad for you as those of your loved ones who will miss you. You have a broken heart now I'm sure but it will be at peace soon, and who's to say that soon isn't a long time. Spend this time with those you cherish so you can tell them how much you love them. I pray for you as I do all my mets sisters. You are loved and thought of, God bless you. It's ok to be scared. Allow yourself to grieve.

I have come full circle on the dying as far as being scared. I just don't want to be in excruciating pain or see my family see me writhing traumatically. I want to be as peaceful as possible. In my sleep would be ideal (Yeah right)

As others have said, so sorry to hear this. We have just lost our 44 yearold neice on 31st January. It was the mets on her liver that took her away. She had her faith in God, as we do, and although we prayed for healing it was not for her. She was so brave and never complained during the two and a half years since diagnoses. My wife nursed her for the last six months and we thank the Lord that she was taken peacefully at the end with her sister, brother and children at her bedside which was the way she wanted to go.

It's so sad, but we'll meet again one day.

My heart goes out to you and will pray for you.

May The Lord be with you.

Walter.

Absolutely heartbroken for you. I cannot profess to even begin somewhere. We have all been given a serving of the worst and try to make the best of it. We trudge on changing our paths and hope for the best. We hope there will be a drug to keep these malignant cells at bay while we regroup to live as much as we can for our family. We get more time when each cocktail works in our paths giving us just 1/4, a 1/2 more time than we began with. I hope that within you're time with hospice they keep you comfortable and you get some quality time with those closest to you. Or that you have defiantly had some quality time up to now. I say quality cause I know how hard it is to maintain and do things we could do before all this crap. Know that you are loved and deserve to rest after all this time and everything you have endured. I can only hope and pray we all go to a better place after all this.
