Hi Kate,
I am so sorry to hear your latest news. I am sure it must have been quite a blow for you (how could it not! - this disease sucks!), but it sounds like you are keeping your focus on treatment and the path back to NED. You know yourself well and you trusted your instincts. You are a model for all of us to bug our doctors when you 'know' something is not right. How lucky you are to have a dr that was willing to go ahead and get the scan done so that you can fight the mets as small ones.
We are all here for you when you need, please let us know if there is anything you need (research, encouragement, prayers, just friendship and smiles). Meanwhile, you will be in my thoughts and prayers, and I will look out for your posts to see how you are coming along.
Hugs,
Patricia
