Oh no. Having just been and still recovering from the treatment for a reoccurrence ourselves , I know that this is gut wrenching news.
Shout and scream some. Cry. Then face it head on. Push for the best treatment to deal with this. Gather your support crew around. Fight.
I truly hope the scan shows no or minimal spread. I am in your corner , thinking and keeping you in my prayers,
