Re: Message from a coward
Helen, you are NOT a coward!!! Many of the stage iv ladies here possibly have had longer to deal and get used to their diagnosis but still have their down times too.
I'm sure they'll be along to give you advice and their own tips that helped, I found Andi B's threads so inspirational and encouraging, not just for a stage iv but helped me when first diagnosed. I have'nt seen her post in a while but if you have time search for some as they may help you too 
In the meanwhile its great news on the lung mets and keeping everything crossed this new regime will help with the skin mets too. Don't ever feel you're a coward, this is a tough thing to get through and we all have to find our own way in dealing with it and getting through each day without cracking up lol...we're here for you to vent anytime!
P.S Just found some here http://her2support.org/vbulletin/sea...earchid=608189
