Are the mets extensive? I'm hoping someone on here with more knowledge will give you more information on this. I had a scare with mets to the lungs, but it turned out to be scar tissue. Have you had a biopsy and a definite diagnosis?
Wow, so overwhelming it must be for you. I'm facing my second round with this cancer so I have thought out all the things we think about when we are facing possible death. It's a tough concept to process and I hope you're working you're way through it. Also, my thoughts are with your daughter and husband.
