Hi. I was just hoping I could vent a little. I am in the midst of gathering all of my records so that I could see a infertility specialist. I am 39 years old and have a five-year old. (I would love to have a new little one.)

I just received most of my records from my oncologist. I read my initial evaluation from her which was taken in Nov. 2005.

This is what it read: She has overall a moderate to poor prognosis. She has a high risk for systemic failure. I feel like I have been kicked in the gut. It is weird to see my mortality, according to my oncologist, written on a piece of paper. (I was diagnosed at Stage IIIA in November of 2005 and my pathology report was not good). It just makes me so sad and so scared.
