I am so sorry to hear your news of the lymph node tumor...I know you must be devastated and your parents as well.
I think you need to take time to come to terms with this...give yourself permission to cry, be mad..whatever and then.....put your fighting clothes on and get busy with this next challenge.
I don't think things are hopeless and it would help all of us if you could give us a timeline in your signature so we can see how and when you were treated. I can't tell if you have had prior radiation or chemo treatment, etc.
On this New Year's Day...I send you hugs,
Deb
