How did this happen??
I have a friend who was dx with me in 2005, she was feeling unwell recently and said she looked about four months pregnant as her stomach was so distended. On Feb 12th they dx liver mets and on Feb 23rd she died..all within two weeks!! I can't make sense of the suddeness of all this especially as we have both been doing so well. She had all the same tx I did but was hormone negative. I know of a lot of people in tx for years with liver mets and doing okay so just can't understand how this could have happened so fast.
I know everyone's different and there's no true answer to this one but just needed to vent. I only found out two days ago and am still in shock.
Thanks for listening.
