Yep. Last year my mom's cancer returned two years after she was told she only had an 8% chance of recurrence. She's at least lucky in that it's apparently a non-aggressive type that can be treated with meds that have minimal side effects. Unlucky, however, since (barring new treatment options) she'll need to continue treatments for the rest of her life.
- abandonliberty 8y agoJust like a weather forecast, the prediction was right. Your mom just happened to be one of those 8 people who get it out of every hundred. Doesn't feel like it though. Best of luck to her.
- Merad 8y agoThanks. Yep, her oncologist's words were "unfortunately someone always has to be in the 8%."
