What I've learned during the last 6 years:*The actuality of my situation is rarely as awful as my imagination.*There is always reason for hope. What you hope for may change but there is always hope.*Dont believe everything you read on the Internet about your prognosis. Often, what you read on the Internet is best case or worst-case. We are rarely best case or worst-case. *When your situation is hardest remember that you can get through the next 60 seconds. Break it down as much as you need to. *If you are working with Mayo Clinic, you have world renowned doctors who see Sarcoma daily in your corner. Make certain you are at a sarcoma center. A regular oncologist may only see one or two sarcomas in their career. *Don't ignore your mental health. Ask for help getting through treatment and the fear following treatment. There are options.
