    SENDING PRAYERS & HUGS
    Sorry you must deal with this. But there truly is hope, as you've been told by the other ladies. I don't have personal experience with liver mets, but you are facing this head-on and I'll pray these treatments are successful. Please keep us informed.

    There is so much hope
    for unfortunately many of us have recurrances with mets on the liver, lungs etc. It's terribly scary to recieve the news. I've been there, but that was over two years ago and although I still have to recieve treatment, I'm here and doing well. We'll be right here for you as they tell you "to get on with it". You will not be alone. The excellent news is that you were able to beat this back for a very long period and you CAN do this. Welcome to a whole new family that will understand.

    OMG = me too
    I read your post and thougth did I write that. I was diagnosied April 2008 with Ovarian cancer, two weeks ago found out it is now on my liver. I am going next week for surgery to remove section of liver, then I have to do chemo again. I was in total shock, my CA125 were always 8 last month went to 65.I know how you feel. I was totally pissed, no other way to put it. I am ready now (tears are done) to face the demon again. Stay strong, and we will win.

    Mets on liver

    Hi Jenna,

    In April, 2007, I had surgery for endometrial cancer stage 1C grade 2. In January, 2008, I developed a blood clot.  CT scan showed mets to abdomen and liver.  All mets resolved with carbo/taxol.
