I don't know what to say but try and keep strong and positive. The treatment is so much better today and cancer can be beaten. I will keep you in my prayers and keep strong so you can fight this terrible disease.]]> Tue, 28 Feb 2012 11:57:02 GMT jobkat http://cancerconnection.ca/groups/breast_cancer_survivors/discussion/2012/01/03/breast-cancer-with-bone-cancer?tr=173714#tr__173714 http://cancerconnection.ca/groups/breast_cancer_survivors/discussion/2012/01/03/breast-cancer-with-bone-cancer?tr=173714#tr__173714 Feel free to contact me take care]]> Fri, 06 Jan 2012 04:40:27 GMT lion http://cancerconnection.ca/groups/breast_cancer_survivors/discussion/2012/01/03/breast-cancer-with-bone-cancer?tr=173494#tr__173494 http://cancerconnection.ca/groups/breast_cancer_survivors/discussion/2012/01/03/breast-cancer-with-bone-cancer?tr=173494#tr__173494 Wed, 04 Jan 2012 18:35:47 GMT Lori (LINDENBEACHGIRL) http://cancerconnection.ca/groups/breast_cancer_survivors/discussion/2012/01/03/breast-cancer-with-bone-cancer?tr=173481#tr__173481 http://cancerconnection.ca/groups/breast_cancer_survivors/discussion/2012/01/03/breast-cancer-with-bone-cancer?tr=173481#tr__173481 As far as I know my HER2 positive breast cancer has not spread, but of course it could.  All I can offer to you is are two sayings I've used for many years, in many situations.
The first is to take one day at a time.  That's all you have any control over.  Make each day the very best and at least you'll have that good day. You cannot control tomorrow, or the day after.

The second saying is the Serenity Prayer, used by many people in similar situations - I offer it for you, in your circumstances today -
"God (and in my way of thinking that can be any power greater than yourself - doesn't have to be the religious image.)
grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change (that might be the growth that is on top of your skull);
. . . the courage to change the things I can (just for today, maybe that's positive thinking, or improved diet, or more exercise, or more fun. . .)
... the wisdom to know the difference (don't worry about what you cannot change, but take the action that you can to make your today a good one.)

I have found that repeating the Serenity Prayer endlesssly keeps me from getting too far ahead of myself.  
I wish you the best, for today.
