This "news" sucks. It is so unfair. At times like these, who would not ask: "Why me?". At least I was Stage IV going into this mess, and told I only had 30% chance. I can't imagine how depressing it must be to start off with such a positive prognosis only to have it deteriorate so badly. I empathize more than you know with your desire to grow old (older in my case) with your spouse. That is the only thing that keeps me going. I know it is not much comfort, but at least you can still eat - at this point I would not worry much about diet etc as I think you deserve a little luxury and indulgence right about now - so get out those chocolates, and delicious fatty foods. Excellent and healthy nutrition has not worked out too well for either of us so a splurge can't hurt. I wish I had pigged out last year during my remission instead of eating tofu & vegetables & rice with zero sugar. Best wishes
