MY LITTLE BROTHER HAS CANCER

i took bro for the 4th of his six sessions of his different type of chemotherapy treatment on Thursday.
His consultant at Christies spoke to us and told us he was happy that the treatment had stemmed the growth of the bowel tumour to some degree, although there may be scar tissue there which is affecting the area so its camera time next week. He couldn't,t say much about the 17 lesions on bros liver because we are not having scans till treatment has ended. We had a laugh with the nurses there i think we brighten their day and they certainly brighten ours.
We met a lovely couple in the next bed. it was sad to hear the young mans story. He told us he was playing football just 6 months ago, when he developed some pains in his back., he struggled on with the help of paracetamol but it was getting a little bit worse as time went on. one morning he noticed in the bathroom mirror that he had a slight lump in his neck. he consulted his doctor who sent him to hospital for tests. There, they discovered that he had several tumours on his spine, tumours in his lung, liver and bowels. They weren,t sure where the cancer had started but it had rapidly spread. he could no longer walk and his lovely wife pushed him in a wheelchair. She told us that they had 3 young children and she didn't know what to tell them. she told us she cried at their questions. it was a really sad story . Their lives had changed so rapidly in the last 6 months. They were a lovely couple being dragged through the process of this horrible disease. My heart went out to them. i said a prayer for them and their children that night. I hope it helps?
