    I recalled when my wife received the news, the doctors prognosis were very negative. Literally thought we gave hours left in life…

    ultimately, you’re no different to two weeks ago.. just you have more knowledge of what’s happening and able to plan what you can do about it. Fight the good fight as they say and stay strong.

    I’m happy to chat if needed.

    Thanks all, specialist thinks it may have originated in the pancreas but in the end it will come down to quality of life decisions and how the PET scan pans out

    I'd love to be ridiculed for being a drama queen and you never know how things will pan out, just saying things look difficult right now

    And a big thanks to Greg for his analysis and straight shooting with me, it is greatly appreciated even if the news isn't good

    Called my daughter this morning and she started crying which had the same effect on me, hard for a father to hear his baby girl cry and not be affected

    I appreciate the heartfelt thoughts from all, still disgesting all the info and my brain is always running at a million mile an hour solving problems for work and I have always solved my problems in my sleep ...... just waiting for the lightbulb moment for this ssue

    I sympathise.. it’s like reliving my nightmare

    but I’ll let you know what little I know..Let the experts do their thing

    You just have to make the decision when the time comes to decide. All you can do is to knowledge up so you can make the best decision you can at the time. Saviour the moments and always don’t left anything unsaid or questions unasked.

    John I came on here for the first time in some years only to stumble onto your bad news. Fool that I am, I can't work out how to message you privately. I just wanted to pass on my very best wishes in this tough time. You're a fighter, and a good one at that, and a good bloke to boot and I know you can get through this. I will have to check in more often to keep an eye on you and to read some good news about your progress. Thanks for letting everyone know. Take care,
    John.

    Thanks John, yes she is great, though she has no interest in Ferraris - so she is not quite perfect :)
    I hope there's only positive news ahead for you in the coming days and weeks.
