    So sorry
    I'm sorry you are in for another round...

    I had a very short break before being thrown back in, and I've had a really rough time of it. But I hope I can be a little inspiration for you. I had no surgical option for this time - only chemo. After 8tx of FOLFIRI and Avastin I'm doing very well. It was a very rough time getting those 8 treatments in, but instead of having to do 12 as originally planned, I have already graduated to maintenance of just 5-FU and Avastin (chemo-light as my onc calls it).

    I hope you can hit it hard and then be able to let up early too. Hopefully you can have an easy procedure to remove the liver mets, and do some chemo to get rid of any nasty buggers trying to hang on, and be done with it again.

    I'm so sorry you have to go through this again, but I'm glad you'll have us to walk with you on this journey. And you have got through it once, you will again.

    Sorry for your news
    Dear Johnnybegood,

    It is hard to think of having to face the fight again I am sure, yet this time around you know some of the ropes. You know that you are your best advocate. You know that you can weather the treatments. You know that you can get past this recurrance.

    And most of all, you know you have us for support!

    Hope the news is better than you fear from the doc on Monday.

    Hugs,

    Marie who loves kitties

    feel your fear
    this beast just sucks! I'm so sorry you are back in the fight. I have had a few recurrences so I know how it just knocks you back. I don't doubt you will be back up to full speed fight mode once you wrap your head around the latest news. They have good treatments for mets to the liver, so I'm sure you will hear good news from your doc on Monday. I've had microwave ablation done to a small met in my liver, it was easy peasy. Fight hard and I will keep you in my prayers.

    See, sometimes Mother knows best. I'm so glad you decided to come to your family here for support. So many of them have faced what you are now going through. This is such a special group of people. As I told you on the phone, there is NO giving up. I know it will be a very hard fight for you, but as so many have said, you can do it. Remember if the chemo card comes up, there are different kinds. One important thing is that you won't have the same STUPID onc you had before. Also, remember the alternatives like diet, juicing, etc.

    I'll talk to you soon.

    I'm here
    Hi,

    Sorry to hear of the official recurrence- truly. We are here for you, and I'm glad you came back. You can do this- I know how scary it is, having had major recurrences two times. There are definitely others who have had recurrences and have then beaten the beast down into NED. You can do it too.

    Hugs to you,
    Lisa

    You MIght Not Remember Me....
    ....but I posted some to a couple of your threads when you were on here before:)

    Recurrence is the really tough part of cancer, JBG. I'm battling my 3rd recurrence right now for the past 7 months, with 3 more months to go.

    I understand how difficult it is to hear those words for the first time. I know you did your 12 oxys and ended up with very bad neuropathy, but you had gotten clear of the cancer. I remember thinking that JBG had paid the price.

    And you have, as we all have done, and you will battle onward, like we're doing, and we'll all give it all that we can.

    Take care and all the best.

    I am so sorry to hear you are facing another battle. I was NED for 16 months and jst got the news that my cancer is back as well with several lessions to the liver. hoohum, so we turn our backs and start to relax and are so thankful for the break and a life without a doctor appointment every week...and then it is back, so we pick up our weapons and fight once again. keep up posted on treatment on how you are doing.

    I am so sorry.
    johnnybegood,
    I'm so new to this board....it will only be a month on the 8th since I heard "you have cancer". I can't imagine what you're feeling right now having been fighting this fight for awhile like you have. I have had so many mixed emotions in the short time I've been dealing with this. I wish you well. I hope that you have more good days than bad, that you don't feel you're fighting this fight alone and that you will have hope when all of the bad parts of this round work their way thru. I wish I had a magic wand to wave and make all this go away for you; for all of us. All I can do is say I'll be here posting on this board to keep encouraging you and standing behind you; I'll pray that you will have an easy go of it. You'll be in my thoughts.
