Thanks Jessica,it sounds like you know exactly how she's feeling and where she 's at with this. I think it looks like she will appeal although is feeling very tired even to face that right now.
The tumour marker's are off the scale and her bone scan lit up like a Christmas tree and yet she has no pain, just constant fatigue.
I'll certainly mention the xeloda to her, thanks so much for the suggestion and I'll also be praying you both get a break from this

Well done on seven years though..what an achievement for you too and inspirational to other's how hard we can fight when needed
