My wife had an aggressive cancer. Doctor told her she was going to die, but not from that. She went through the process and is doing great after three years.

Keeping positive helps. I suggest reading The Secret.

Step 1. Kick that cancer in the ass
Step 2. Enjoy an awesome 2019

I hope this has the best possible outcome in the shortest amount of time.

Sounds like her and you are strong enough to get through this. That's a big part of it. We all hope for a swift recovery for your wife.

Thomas, a good friend of ours and her mother before her both had breast cancer which resulted in full-on mastectomies and lots of chemo/radiation so I have seen first hand how devastating it can be. I wish your wife the best and a very speedy recovery.

Thank you for sharing this info with us. Thoughts and prayers sent for both of you. In a few short months this will all be in the past and life will go back to being normal for both of you.

You two certainly seem to have your mental game in order and that's #1.

This.

Early detection. Small.

I honestly know a few women that caught theirs early and small. They are still doing very well to this day. The ones that had chemo even had their hair to grow back as nice as prior to chemo.

Y'all got this.

First, best of luck to your wife and you during this bump in the road. I will pray for both of you.

My wife and I have already been thru this. https://www.thevettebarn.com/forums/...ad.php?t=27653 ( make sure you read your comments, the same and more back at both of you )


It sounds like the same type of "C" that Mary had. She did the radiation first thing in the morning and then worked her regular 8 hour shift. She has been clear ever since. ( almost 7 years now )

As always, stay positive and if you need to vent, yell, holler or cry, do it away from your sweetie. Stay positive at all times. Make sure you take care of yourself too, it's a terrible mind f*ck on you.

All the above and this: you two are your only true advocates in this process. Ask lots of questions and make the best informed decisions you can. Don't be afraid of hurting anyone's feelings if things seem to be slipping from your control. Be polite, be firm and be sure you agree before allowing procedures.
My sister is a 14 year survivor. You can do this!

Thank for the words of encouragement everyone. There’s plenty of success stories out there and it seems like the more people you talk to the more you find out - there’s a lot of people out there who have had to deal with this in one way or another. I’m not convincing myself to remain confident, I honestly believe we WILL prevail here.

A friend of mine told me recently, ‘Don’t let this ruin one f’n day of your life.’ While that may be a little unrealistic I understand the sentiment.

Sorry to hear you are both going though this but at the same time thankful you aren't sharing much worse news in a year or two because it wasn't detected now.

Prayers again sent. Onward, indeed!
