Hi my mum (71) healthy for her age, was admitted to hospital recently with a bile obstruction she had jaundice and had to get an external bile drainage bag in her left side possibly permanent all her jaundice has now cleared they couldn't get a stent in to open the bile duct as they couldn't get passed the blockage in the right side, so have got a second opinion from another hospital and are awaiting on there input but the meantime she has been discharged and we have been told she likely has secondary gallbladder cancer which came from the bile duct. Anyway they won't do chemotherapy if she can get any treatment cause of the bag incase of infection and they said it was inoperable also so what are her options in this case? Thanks
