She is up in sudbury doing radiation and chemo.....at 75 years old. She was always a strong lady, she split alot of her winters wood right up into her late 50's

Oh bless her heart! She sounds like my Auntie out west. Chops all her wood, still hunts and traps. Same age too. She sounds like much wont get her down <3

Lol. Thanks! I still have to be very careful with my lungs. The spots/pockets can spread. No smoking, second hand smoke, chemicals.

Back atcha! Have a drink for me!

I have what seems months of work now with little chance of relaxing and having a drink so I am making the most of it. Tonight was my last chance. I just hope that I get notice enough to visit home again to see my sister and my best friend from old before that fecking dreaded thing does for them. Commitments to work can be a fucker

I was really hoping it was something simple like adhesions. Funny thing when the news your have a chronic lung disease is good news. But is good news, somehow I had a hunch it was gonna be a complecation of treatment, and not a cancer that has spread. I was never really worried for you, only felt bad that you had to take on all the worry of it. But managing chronic lung disease is doable, and portable and home based, so your travel plans and summer should be full speed ahead.

I didn't log into CM until after 5 today. I didn't want to come until you had results for sure, and I echo I'm happy for you.

After managing two months last fall smoke free, I relapsed. and have set a quit date of June 20th. I'm rooting for you.

I know. I don't think people realize that this news was not good news either, but the lesser of two evils. Now the hard part will be to quit smoking. Your brain knows that " you're an idiot" if you dont, but your body is saying .....hell no! I had pertussis when I was 5, and it left it's damage. I was the person who should of never started! I've been seeing a pulmonary doctor for years. His words were " Im always surprised when someone quits", because the addiction is so brutal. I knew going into radiation that I would probably end up with problems, but I don't regret it. As far as quitting goes, we both ( you and I) will take one day at a time and hope to stay determined.

That damn cancer. It took my grandmother this morning sadly. It was absolutely shocking how fast things progressed. The one night she was making some phone calls asking my dad to bring her a pizza in the hospital. The next day not even 15 hours later, I got a call from my family saying I better come and visit grandma because things got very bad. When the doctors went to get her ready for a bath, she was so weak she passed out cold. And ever since, she has been in a fogg and not very responsive. I had to give her water from a straw. She could barely talk she was so tired. And just slept. And that was 7 days ago. the doctors said when this happens its usually hours to days. She fought on for 7 more days. I knew it was bad when I called her and she sounded absolutely exhausted and cut me off and said she had to go, she was just so tired. Never heard her like that before

the doctors told us the cancer was incredibly aggressive. It took just 22 days to spread from her lungs and form the way it did into her brain to the point she was dizzy and having flashes and falls.

i think between having radiation/chemo and such an aggressive cancer, it was way too much for a 75 years old to fight.

Atleast she had a good 75 years. Some dont even get 7 years

 

[lotusch]

Sorry to her that lockinlove..
My sincere condolences..

It is just such a horrible horrible disease and I cannot grasp how many people get one form or another form of cancer these days..

My mum in law is 82 years of age and was diagnosed with blood cancer 2 years ago but it was only a mild form and she does not need any chemo..
She gets pills for it and some steroids and it seems to keep it under control..
She has to go for weekly check ups tho..

Was reading an article the other day and Ireland is the 4th highest ranked country in the world!! when it comes to cancer rates.
And there is not even a lot of real heavy industry here.

The water is very bad here and full of toxins, chlorine, fluorides and stuff.
We have Sellafield, the nuclear decommissioning site just across the Irish Sea in the UK.
The Irish eat a lot of processed food like the tasty but not so good sausages and they put MSG in nearly every crisp, sauce, soup and poison you with Aspartame and Sucralose in your drinks.

I am sure these contribute to our 4th place.

 

[Steviedoo]

my condolences lockinlove.
its incredibly heart breaking to lose someone you love.
take care.

 

[geordiecolin]

How can someone be sitting up making phone calls and asking for some pizza...to 15 hours later be completely out of it, weak, not all there and completely shutting down? It truly blew me away.

Thank you guys for the nice words, its very nice of you all. Very very tough day.

There is always that bit of regret that you should have visited more or called more to say hi when they are gone.

Sorry for the high jack bebo, just wanted to update you all and sort of write it out to talk about it a little. Between posting here and talking to family and friends I feel better.

Thanks everyone!

No need apologise. It is good to talk about it with those outside of family and close friends. To encourage talking about this awful disease I shall share my experiences which I am facing now. My eldest sister is terminal and 3 months ago they refused to give a time limit. This is because it is all dependent on various treatments that she agrees/refuses to have and the success of those treatments. They quoted that with treatments 3 months could become six. Four months could become 8 months etc. She is going through the mill but is still fighting. She uses CBD oil daily which she swears by.But in her case she buys CBD oil without the high taken away (£250 a pop on the black market)
Also my best friend who i've know since I was a boy has terminal cancer. In his case he had most of his bowel removed and our worry is that Sepsis will get him before the disease itself does ( contracted it 3 times recently) He has a perforation which they seem reluctant to address via surgery.
This is not a woe is me post.But a topic opener,if you please.
I live 100's of miles away from home but I am seriously considering moving back home once a few work contracts are completed

Only saw this now. My sincere condolences, always very hard to lose a close family member.

Speaking out about it, helps to share the burden!

Im very sorry to read this lock. May the days after the funeral be full of memories, tears, pictures. I lost my grandparents, and it was very hard to grasp. 30 years later I can still smell my grandmothers powder. The great thing is they never leave you. They will show up generations to come. God bless
