I've recently found out there is nothing more than they do for my mom and noone is giving me a time frame. She's not really that old either(51)Seeing her deteriote is so hard and I don't know how I'm going to cope when she goes. There's so many things we wanted to do and because of covid never got too. I know there will be people worse off than us and have experienced worse and I feel so guilty for having the feelings I do. I also need to tell my children. I just needed to write some of this down so sorry if it doesn't make sense.

Hi Kelly. Sorry to hear about your dad also.
My mom was given all clear and just a few months later they found it had actually spread to her brain. This was almost a year ago so I know it won't be long.
It is so hard and I'm new to this forum but im already finding it comforting knowing there's nice people on here.
Sending hugs to you also xx
