Hello, I posted on here about 5 months ago when I first got diagnosed with angiosarcoma in the breast and went through a mastectomy . At the time I don't know where to fit it and the community was very welcoming . 

Fast forward 5 months I've now had a recurrence and now am diagnosed with stage 4 cancer that has spread to the lungs. I'm experiencing many changes in life , my fiancé of 7 1/2 years just broke up with me this morning . I am having trouble with wanting to survive for myself and not just for him. I'm completely lost .

    OMG Lily I am so sorry. Your fiancée deserts you now? What a prince. Stage IV is a horrific DX but you should go to their forum and read some of their posts. A lot of them have been Stage IV for many years. What's the doctors treatment plan? Do you have family and friends to support and help you? See if there is a support group. There are several here. I know you are scared. We will do whatever we can to help you. This forum has been my lifeline; let it be yours too. Sending prayers your way.

    Oh Lily, that's terrible!  A stage IV diagnosis and then  this!  I agree with Edwards750 - What a prince of a guy!  If he did this to you with what you are going through, then you didn't need him anyway!  One door closes  - another door opens!  Good luck.

    Hi Lily,

    I am so sorry for what you're going through.  I am so disappointed in your fiancé.  What an idiot ... and especially now when you need the extra support.  I hope you'll connect with the Stage IV ladies for love and support.  They're the best.

    I'll keep you in my heart and thoughts.

    Oh my. I am so very sorry! I don't have any works of wisdom but you are in my thoughts.  I wish you the best and if you need to vent or anything let me know (venting always helps me).
