    Dear Christy,

    I am sorry that the cancer has progressed. I am hopeful that the radiation tx will help rid the pain. I am confident that your drs will find the right combo that will get you to NED.

    HUgs and Prayers,

    Lexi

    Oh Christy, I am sorry to hear this.  It sounds like you have a plan to be aggressive, and I wish you all the best fighting back at the mets.  You are very kind to us, even when you're the one going through what we all fear!  Sending lots of prayers and hugs to you.

    Kristy,

    I was really hoping that you were going to get 100% good news. I'm so so sorry.

    Saw this on stage IV before I saw it here - I am overcome by your caring attitude towards others, anacortesgirl - the first thing you thought of was to reassure the rest of us amidst you own pain. Wish cancer had been as merciful with you. :(

    Shoot, Christy, that's not the news you wanted to hear. Let us know the plan of action to fight it.



    We've sure have had our share of 15%ers lately.

    Thank you - it means a lot to hear from my sisters. There is so much more to find out but you know how the waiting game goes.



    Told my brother and SIL the day we found out. Went over to my Mom's and told her today. Just need to call up the kids and tell them. Much harder conveying this message than the original dx.

    Thanks Gitane.



    Had the bone biopsy today. I'll get the results in three weeks unless something significant shows up like HER2 +. He is also sending a tissue sample to OncoPath. I need to research them, but apparently they are looking at genes that have promising drugs. If they find a match then I'll have an opportunity to get on a trial.



    I liked the way the once put it today - Get your affairs in order just because it's the right thing to do. But plan on living for a long time.

    So glad you wrote back Christy.  I hope your bone biopsy went easily, like any procedure is easy, well... you know what I mean.  The OncoPath thing has been mentioned here and there on the boards.  Three weeks seems like a long time, but if OncoPath is looking at genes, makes sense it would take some time.  I'm curious now; guess I'll go into research mode.  Looks like you have a practical, up-to-date, compassionate oncologist.  That would be hugely important to me, so I'm glad it's in place for you.  I hope you will let us know how you are doing.  We care about you!  Sending you good thoughts, G.
