Sorry if this is on the wrong thread but i'm not sure where to put it

Nearly 2yrs ago i had surgery to remove a sarcoma (no treatment afterwards as not needed). My 6 month scan was clear and i had another scan 4wks ago to check if it had come back. The hospital have rang today and told me they had booked me in next Friday to see a member of the surgery team. I am abaolutely terrified and beside myself with worry. I am a single parent to a very young child who has no contact with dad due to domestic abuse. I barely have any family/friend support. If the cancer is back i really don't know what i will do. I feel physically ill

I hope the scan is goodish news. Look after yourself @Lostmymind11 . Do you have someone to cook something nourishing for you later on?

Wishing you all the luck in this unluckiest of situations. I too am a single parent (DH died last year from a brain tumour) and have been diagnosed with stage IV breast cancer last March (liver mets). Currently going through my 2nd line of treatment which is IV chemo and no family nearby to support me going through the horrible side effects. There is no other alternative but keep on going. There has been LOTS of swearing. But all I need is to look at my DS (he is 12 soon) to bring me back to earth and realise who I am doing this for. Good luck with the PET & MRI scans, I hope these are helpful in getting you a clear plan forward.
