So, its apparently good news. I thought mum was 'doomed'. That was my initial fear. Its definately not good, but all is not lost.
Mums cancer has spread to her bones, round her chest cavity, into her legs, her spine and into her head. Thats the joy of stage 4. When we were told on Sunday night, all I could do was cry. But they got back from the oncologist today and we've been told they're going to try blasting the cancer in her spine and head.
This will not cure mum but it will make mum more comfortable and her walking a bit easier. I really hope so. I hate to see ma wee mammy like this.
So there's the facts. I can't believe it. It's so surreal. Its like its happening to another family (not that I would wish this on anyone else) but I'm talking about my family. Oh my god.
Tell you one thing though, through all this I have discovered, (not strictly true, more re-discovered) the warmth of some people. In a strange way, me and my family are closer than we ever were and friends are showing true colours. I thank goodness for all of you.
