    I am so sorry.
    Maybe it would help is you told us a bit more about it. That way someone who has been down the same path may be able to help you. We all care and want to help you in any way possible.

    Your not alone
    My cancer came back after 4 1/2 years, next week I'll be starting radiation and chemo for 6 weeks. I know its hard I feel the same way and its so hard to have to go through it again but I have a friend that has been through it 4 times and he keeps on ticking. I'm a firm believer that he is still here because he fights it with the foods he eats and I've decided that is where the true cure is alone with the radiation and chemo, right along with waking up each morning and thanking god for another day, making it a happy day because that's all you can do is live one day at a time, don't waste them being sad.

    I feel your pain and will keep you in my prayers.

    I pray you can find strengh & courage to fight this again
    I beleive the stress and worry weakens the body and it's abilty to fight cancer. I pray you can set that stress and worry aside, live for today, enjoy every breath and every moment you have with your kids and family. Do the best you can to enjoy every moment you have & I pray it is for a long time. God bless you!

    I think it is only natural
    I think it is only natural to go thru a range of emotions when faced with any kind of tramatic situation especially when it is something we don't want to believe. I'm still new to accepting that I have cancer as I was just diagnosed on June 3rd. I would think being told a second time that it's back can be just as bad as hearing the first time but you must also think of the knowledge you have now and what you will learn this time. I truly believe my circle of strength comes from my positive outlook, faith in God, medical intervention, family & friends support and healthy lifestyle.

    Concentrate on your well being, inside and out. Positive attracts positive and we must get rid of the negatives. You can do it! God Bless you!

    I am sorry to hear this. I am new to this network and although the stories are sad, it is uplifting to see the support of others, even strangers. Know that you are not alone and we all pray for cures and strength for all suffering.
