No one really knows how they will react until you are in front of the doc and he gives you the bad news. Having recently been given 2 to 10 years, and doing well on treatment (opdivo, no side efects yet) i intend to live and help raise my grandchildren to become good people. So far insurace is paying for very expensive treatments, and i wont leave my wife broke and in debt. So far i am doing well and feeling good, except for this stupid broken femur and dislocated hip from a bathtub slip last november.
if it wasn't for that i would be working and making good money.
I see the doc friday, to review scan done tuesday, and i know it will be good news, as the two tumors i had before hurt like all get out, and except for hip pain as i rehab the hip, i feel good.
My advice is to maintain the best insurance you can, and keep a mat in the shower. And if you get unexplained small pains, get it checked out. My cancer is Clear cell Renal carcinoma, presented as a nagging pain on my spine,as it doesn't seem to have any symptoms until it metastisizes.
Good luck all, and to be able to take care of your family, plan for the future as if you or your spouse may not be there.
