    Hello lostandscared. So sorry about the news. You’re probably like me wishing there was something you could have done to find it but how could you have known. There is little to no awareness of this cancer from what I’ve seen. Either you know it because someone you know has CC or you don’t. This site is amazing and I’ve used it since my mother was diagnosed earlier this year. Definitely has way more information than any other source I’ve found.

    With my Mom she developed uncontrollable blood clotting which is how we found it. So she has numerous clots that still haven’t dissolved on top of the cancer. I don’t recall her ever complaining about her side or anything else other than having a sensitive stomach and occasional heart burn before then and her mass was the size of a baseball when they discovered it. Now we are just working on chemo and luckily she’s responding well. We were told operation was possible but now learned it spread just outside her liver on her diaphragm. Not sure if that surgery will ever be an option but wishing for the best. I’d defiantly get a few opinions about surgery before you go on one opinion or give up on it.

    Wishing the best for you and your boyfriend.

    Thank you all for your kind words and encouragement. I look forward to reporting better news next time I post. We refuse to give up. I shared your kind words to Mom and she smiled a bright smile. That was great to see. She still has a fight in her and we aren’t giving up.

    @Jathy- Being on the opposite side of the spectrum I can see how much strength it takes to not give up and continue to fight. You are an inspiration.
