Don't ever give cancer a capital letter - it isn't the most important thing in your lives. It is something that you have to face up to, deal with and get on with living. It is crappy, but it is not where your focus is - that has to be the horizon and adventures and life and living that are to come.
Beware of measuring yourself against her. I nearly broke myself by thinking 'if she can do that then I should be doing more'. It doesn't work like that. Just be you and try to keep things normal as much as possible.
Mr and Mrs C sending healing thoughts to you both you will beat this it just takes time!
Mrs R was diagnosed with cancer when she was pregnant with our second child. Two operations and chemo whilst pregnant meant she had to stop work and I had to drop hours at work. Good old government/tax man rules meant no help, we ended up getting some help from Macmillan who I can't thank enough!!
You both need to let all your thoughts and worries out and don't bottle them up. There are plenty of places and charities that can help, use them as they work and help.
Good luck and stay strong
Thanks for everyone's comments today. I will put my ducks in a row and write "a thing" but I'm cream crackered and have [s]CPS washers to fish out the hoover.[/s]distractions
Jen says thanks too. As far as being an all attentive carer, well, that is definitely in the honeymoon period.
I have a sore throat so will be making a sign reading "Yes, dear?"
Love, indeed...
All the very best to you and your family mate. A close friend is going through a similar thing and all the indications are that there is an excellent chance of a full recovery.
It's not cancer.
Pathology report came back. Very rare set of circumstances.
Jen is a one in a million case, consultant has never had a case like it.
Life, won. Cancer, nil.
Our thoughts and respect go out to everyone living with, without and through cancer.
Thank you.
We had a similar scare two years ago. Very frightening month for us so I know exactly what you've gone through.

That is truly wonderful news.
Very lucky woman. Get her to buy a lottery ticket or something!
More seriously, I'm very glad it's not the alternative. Take care both of you.

Hope from Meg Griffin.
great news - now go out and smash up some dusty trail (in a sensible manner, without endangering others, respect walkers and horse riders :D)
Great news, really happy for you.
That's the best thing I've heard on this most beautiful spring day.
Great news! Take stock and grasp life with both hands!
This morning I was lying in the Heather up the Pentlands watching a raptor thinking "life could change forever today"
Then I cycled down the hill hitting 45kph and it didn't matter.
Nothing really matters but happiness and love.
Great news?
Out of interest what is it, a benign Phyllodes tumor?
Fantastic news op.
Tom, we're waiting on the letter but phonetically that resembles what the consultant said.
**** knows. Considering some of what we've gone through, I think I'll just get on with it and propose.
Sunshine, hay and all that.
Seriously though, affirmation. I'm 27 next month. Big life.
Edit: These are not the ramblings of a relieved idiot, but those of a reliable fool. I'll be drunk later, tune in for that.
