Elle, don't worry about a long story!! Good God, that's an ordeal to go through. It is a long fight. That must have been so hard to hear... a 6 mo life expectancy! I can't imagine, but guess eventually I'll get the same news. And no, my primary was ovarian, it spread to peritoneum before I started treatments. Living with ambiguity, pain and discomfort seems like what we're both left with. I just got a medical marijuana card, and I think it helps, certainly with the chemo pain and absolutely with my frame of mind. ME LIKES! The side effects of chemo have taken their toll, and I was expecting surgery day before Thanksgiving, but now they are a bit concerned about the profound shortness of breath, and want me get into my cardiologist before proceeding. I hope there's nothing wrong with my heart... This is a tough fight, Elle. We're in this together, just like all the other gals and caregivers who are signing in and reading. I am 69, live in the suburbs of Philadelphia. Married to my dearest friend, lucky me. How about you, fellow traveler?
