Hello, @clodaghdowning !
Thank you so much for your share about such a taboo theme like cancer.
Nowadays society tends to show "us" only the good life, and the happy ever after.
I congratulate you for your courage to assume and to describe all the "steps" in the chemo process in your type of cancer.
Unfortunately, I knew someone very close related to me that didn't make it through the gastrectomy, after the 3 months of previous chemo protocol (Epirubicine, 5-FU and Cisplatin) for cito reduction. But just like you said, medicine, and Oncology has been evolving so much in these last years... And this case was 12 y ago.
Thank you, once again for your courage 😊
