HEY,
the docs can be wrong - they told me "3 years" and that was 3 years ago and now they just don't know.
Tell your family, get some help ; i am sure they know something is up - to have this diagnosis, i am sure you have been to a lot of doc's
you never know so get out there and LIVE

hi there, sorry to hear you were diagnosed with cancer, cancer is scary, I'm a survivor. We have a family friend that was given 3 months approximately to live, they called in hospice and after 2 months he was put into a late stage clinical trial, it's 9 years and 3 months from that time, so you never know. I think a doctor that said you have 1 week to live is full of it, there's no way to know someone will die and certainly not that fast. You need to find a new doctor and have your tests redone, there are alot of people out ther enow living with cancer like you live with asthma or other conditions.

Um, no offence but your doctors sounds like a quack. I'm not saying that you don't have cancer, but no doctor is going to diagnose you and say you only have a week to live. It's usually six months (OK, that probably wasn't much help). And their is treatments that could make the cancer go away.
So, ASAP go to a DIFFERENT doctor (preferably an oncologist) and get a second opinion.

Are you going to commit suicide or something? There is NO way that you were diagnosed with a cancer and told you were going to die in a week. Unless you are just about in a comatose state, no doctor will give you a one week life expectancy. My advice is to grow up.

Please get a second or third opinion. My heart breaks that this would happen to someone so young, but reach out to your family and friends. They can help you get through this. Dr.'s make mistakes so ask more questions and have faith. You are in my prayers.

God continually has a plan. returned, i'm sorry. i'm going to save your father in my prayers.
