Hello,

I am sorry that you have been through a LOT of things that could've induce quite a handful of "tasing" to your body.

I feel bad that I dton't have any wisdom words to your case. This is probably very measly to you, but I just want to tell you that you are NOT definitely alone out there.

I, for one, got dx at stage 3b, when I was 35. But I got mets, by getting a stupid tumor in my cerrebellum the following year. I have been stage 4 since age of 35-3/4, and I am still there at stage 4, I am 39 now.

I may not have gone through such surgeries as much as you, but you are in my heart.

Prayers for all! :-)
