Hello @rosez,
It has been a while since you last posted and I'm glad to hear from you again. I cannot imagine the stress you must feel with both your daughter and husband having cancer. You mentioned in a previous post that your daughter was finally diagnosed with cancer of the Thymus. I understand that this is a rare type of cancer. Could you share a little about what type of treatment she is receiving? Is this treated with surgery, radiation, or chemo?
How is she dealing with the emotional impact of this on her young daughter? Does she have a good support system in place where she lives?
Thinking of you and your family and wishing you all better days.

I have not posted in a long time. I feel my life has been turned upside down this past year. My oldest sister passed away in
April. My daughter. who we had so much hope for passed away October 12th. Her tumor had grown into her heart and when they tried to remove it, her heart started to bleed so they closed her up. They went back a few days later and tried to insert a stent so that she would be able to breathe easier. Surgery went well but she passed when they were done. She took a piece of me with her and now we received more bad news for my husband. He has high grade glioma and a new tumor. The doctors have only given him about 3 months.
He was in the hospital about 2 weeks ago for a severe rectal bleed. He lost half the blood in his body and now he cannot go on chemo because his hemoglobin is too low. I cannot vision a life without him after being married for almost 56 years.
