Kate has asked me to post this on her behalf. She is currently in hospital with a chest infection and pneumonia.She had a CT scan and the results were not good. It showed lots of spread of her mets and new mets. The main worry is her heart. A big bag of fluid was seen round the heart and is squashing it and there is alot of fluid on the lungs.The doctors are waiting to see if the fluid needs draining or gets better itself.Kate said to me to pass this message onto you all as she cannot contact all of you.
Please pass on good wishes to kate, and hope she improves.It was only a week ago I met her and gave her a lift from the station to the Bristol meet-up.

Sorry to hear this news Kate, a week with this disease and so much can change. Hope they can work out a new treatment plan that will do something to deal with the results on the scan.
Love Debsxxx
Poor Kate
this is not the news that she would have wanted to hear. Lets hope they sort her out soon.I know how awful the fluid can make you feel especially around the heart.
Keep on fighting it Kate
Lots of love ~Caroline
Really sorry to hear of the new developments Kate. Hope they’re going to be able to drain the fluid really quickly and get you home, infection free. Also hope they can come up with a revised treatment plan to get those new mets under control. In the meanwhile just rest and let them get you as well as possible
Am so sorry to hear this news Kate.I really hope they can sort out the fluid and drain it if necessary and that the chest infection and pneumonia gets better really soon. Am thinking of you and your family and hoping you are back with us on here soon.
Much love,
Anne xx
