Hi Havah, the situation you're facing is very daunting, but as many wonderful, strong women here have posted, they have lived for many, many years with liver mets. You have stated, to paraphrase, "but the women posting on this site are the survivors, etc." One very, very important thing to consider, you are very lucky, yes lucky, to be dx'ed with liver mets in 2007 or 2008, versus what alot of these women here have faced, dx'ed in 1995, or 98 or whatever year. I know you're scared, but dammit, we're all scared. Cancer research and treatments have come a long way, and are quickly approaching a point where there will be a cure or at least a chronic maintenance type of approach. You can be one of the survivors posting to the newcomers years from now and telling your story, like someone said earlier. Also, from your post, do you need "pain" support or "plain" support? Your dr. can certainly do better if you're in pain, and like the women here have said, come here anytime for advice, and venting, and let us know where you live, maybe someone is nearby, or can get there to help you. Love and peace to you, Bill
