Started with pain that was mistaken for gall stones. After several scans. ultra sound. ct scan and mri and colonoscopy top and bottom I got a terminal cancer diagnosis which is untreatable, not curable. I am now on chemo to shrink the cancer in my bowel, lymph nodes and liver./ Hopefully no surgery required, but I will deal with than if it comes.
I have been spoilt by Mcmillan cancer, my local Foyle Hospice Nurses and Marie Curie nurses, as well as my district nurse team. The district nurse team call everyday and change my drive, keep me on top of any sickness and pain and are always available if needed.
They are angels and have me spoilt as well as well advised, I would be lost without the district nurses. I am prepared for what's to come and thanks to my nurses will get there.
