Dear Flori,
I am so very sorry that you had this news. Please do not give up, you
have been so brave and have fought back so hard. The battle is not
over and with this nasty disease we have to continuously battle it.
Many of the woman on the site have had great results and acheived NED
results with your treatment plan. DO NOT GIVE UP.....Please know you are surrounded with many strong and brave warriors who are here for you.
Of course you feel devastated - but please realize this does not mean instant doom. Floi, maybe try to think of your treatment as your way of having control and you will stomp on this disease until you are once again NED....yes it will happen - continue to fight back and tell yourself each and everyday from now on you will SURVIVE!
Sending you a HUGE HUG,
Jean
