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

Thank you everyone for your kind words, it means a lot. I went out and got bits for my hospital bag today so i'm all packed ready. Going out tomorrow for lunch with some friends as i'm sure i won't be able to go out for a long while after the op

Thinking of you. It’s difficult isn’t it. Hope all goes well with your operation. I’m waiting to get my operation on my tumor in my chest. I panic thinking about it. We need to be positive 💕
