Merkel Cell Carcinoma Diagnosis
Hi all,
My dad (73) just got diagnosed with stage three Merkel cell carcinoma. To say our family is in shock is an understatement.
My dad is extremely positive about the whole thing so it’s my mum, but I can’t help but feel scared that it might all fail, the immunotherapy…
You can imagine where all my thoughts are going when you hear the words stage three, cancer and not only that but a rare and aggressive one…
I have been fearing the worst and imagining that this could be the thing that takes him away. I’ve been reading Reddit to try and see if there’s any positive stories out there but they are really hard to find.
I suppose I’m just writing here to ask for any stories about their story with MCC, or a loved one. The good and the bad I want to be realistic here.
Thank you for letting me vent
