    Seeing the Bowel Cancer Consultant at RD&E hospital in Exeter on Thu to discuss Mum's treatment (management) - what questions should I ask?

    Thanks

    Yesterday (Wed 7 Sep 11), my Mum was diagnosed with terminal cancer derived from her bowel.  She has been unwell for a number of years, has cirosis of the liver, anaemia, diabetes, polyps plus a number of other complaints.  The doctors have given her months to live which is difficult to comprehend, I mean, how long is a piece of string? 

    We are all naturally devastated but trying to remain positive and enjoy the rest…

Help us do whatever it takes, because we’ve never been needed more.
