CANCER in the lung and it had spreaded into the liver!!she was admitted in april 2009 and had numerous scans nothing was found now in August it has spreaded into the liver!! how was nothing found in april!! 

they cany do anything about it as it is to widespread and aggresive so now were at the hospital everyday waiting and waiting watching her slowly and painfully fade away what a cruel cruel disease cancer is, if she was a dog she would be put down!!

i just cant see a light at the end of a tunnel, they wont give us a time on how long she has left, not long they say but whats that days? weeks? months???? i need to stay strong for my dad but its so hard and draining watching her day in day out just laid there.
can you fight it at this stage??? i just dont know what to do...she is the strongest,bravest lady i will EVER meet, at this point she is still smiling at the nurses when the consultant told us all she just smiled at him!!! my heart is breaking...
