what did the gynae say abt ur MIL condition?

[Dora1]

TheAnswer:

Jennifer and Buds,


It's indeed a difficult time. Mil was warded from Sunday due to a few life threatening issues. On Monday, the doctor told us that she may pass away within a few days due to the medical issues like high calcium due to the cancer cells attacking the bones. Her calcium levels are lower now so they have started radiotherapy on Thursday. The doctor keeps talking about quality of life..

Hopefully after radiotherapy, she is fit enough to go for chemotherapy. The cancer cells are everywhere. In the liver, in the lungs, in the bones.. Widespread

Hi TheAnswer

My mum also passed away from lung cancer 10 years ago. At the time of discovery, the cancer cells has also spread to bones, liver and brain. I know it is a very normal reaction to try and find cures and all sorts of agressive treatments. But slowly when I saw the side effects of the treatments, and the pain that she went thro, it's really the quality of life, not the length of life that matters. If you need someone to talk to, do drop me a PM. It's a very very difficult time for everyone in the family. Stay strong :hugs:
