I know people see me posting about my lady a lot and then Ill see people posting about grown men whining online. Not sure if its in relation to me it not. But heres Beckys story for those who dont know (names withheld for legal reasons) Sometime around 2008 she felt a lump in her left breast , freaked out she went to her doctors. She checked her out and said your fine its just a cyst. Becky wasnt happy with that answer and said she would like scans because it was really bothering her, they sent her fir films and a few days later we received a call saying the doctor was right it was only a cyst, we were ecstatic . We them moved on with life , thankful for that dodged bullet , about 10 months later we took her to the er for a cough , they did some X-rays and there was a. Big meeting if the doctors we knew Something was up, they came in and informed us that there were some funny spots on her X-ray and told us they wanted us to go to the agh cancer center, we were dumbfounded , and since it was a weekend we had the longest wait ever. Over the weekend we got a phone message from her doctor saying she was so sorry if there was anything she could do please call her. After a few days of non stop appts, mAmmograns, X-rays , scans , biopsies, the cancer center changed our lives off ever. , diagnosis? Stage 4 inflammatory breast cancer that had metastacized to the lymphnodes and both lungs. They are sorry but it was Incurable, Our world was rocked . She went through partial mastectomy, chemo therapy, radiation , hormone therapy , all this just to slow the cancer . Chemo was the worst from the loss of hair to the deathly Ill sickness from chemo day until 1 or two days before her next treatment , eyebrows gone, fingernails came out, emptying her drainage tube from her surgery , broken Hearted she fought with everything she had, we talked to an attorney who while working out case ( which I cant really go into fir legal reasons) while comparing her doctors notes with the notes received from other doctors he realized she had changed the notes she had sent us to make it look like Beckys fault, then when the doctor who had fine the scans had his deposition he flat out said Ill admit I never looked at the scans , I just went off the technicians report. We were dumbfounded but she fought and fought. We had the tumors in her lungs shrinking . So she stayed on her maintenance meds yo keep the cancer done and finally it went to the back of our minds , Present : few months back we go for scabs they tell us the cancer is growing the medicine isnt working anymore , so they take her in fir new chemo , none of it has been working shes been getting sicker and sicker. Recently they stopped one of the chemos her legs and feet began to swell and havent stopped they dont know why, her legs and ankles are so swollen she can hardly bend her ankles and is having trouble walking, they cant stop it, another new development is the recent trouble she has been having with breathing , the most mundane tasks are talking a horrible toll on her. Today infact checking her oxygen intake it was first 84 %. Then after folding clothes for 5 mins it dropped down To 74 % . They dont know why or how to stop it, the simples things are begging to be mountains, going shopping, walking the stairs etc, are becoming real obstacles. I have to lay in bed at night and wonder when this happens how will I raise my boys , how will I even go on with my life weve been togeyher 19 years, she is my gf, fiancé , and my best friend , So when you think she never answers the phone, she never wants to do anything think about what she is going through , and try to understand, and if I dont get back to ya as quick as Id like to , or dont pick up when ya call please realize Im not trying to be an asshole , but Im dealing with some deep shit. I been wanting to get this off my chest and also let the people I my life who may not know the whole story gain some insight into what is going on,
