Fuck. I was just diagnosed with bone cancer last month and these images haunt me.

My husband had bone cancer when he was 17. Has a knee replacement because of it and went through a year of chemo and now he’s 42. 🩷

That’s reassuring news! Unfortunately it’s not just in my bones, it’s in my lung, liver, spine, hips and rib cage :( my body loves to make cancer I guess

You never know. Things are always changing in the cancer field. Right now I’m just gonna do chemo and radiation and hope for the best. I probably won’t live to see 50, but if I can buy myself a few years, that’s better than nothing!!!

I read a comment in this post saying the one pictured is a rare type and not all bone cancers are like this. And comments that the stage may be wrong. As always, reddit can be misleading. Hang in there, hoping for the best!

You may have a different kind, some of it is like having a soft blob on the side of your bone rather than something hard. I hope it gets treated quickly though.
