Help with understanding diagnosis

Hello, do you know what type of ovarian cancer your mum has?  My cancer was also found via my arm pit… by my first mammogram in 2021. I was told they would try 3 rounds of chemo and then possibly surgery… but it was so advanced it wasn’t a given.   I am stage 4b grade 3 epitheral serous.  The lymph nodes in my armpit never shrank through chemo but it did in my abdomen.  My CA125 fell significantly.  I did have surgery and the lymph nodes were removed as part of the surgery by breast surgeons.    I’ve had more chemo after and continue treatment.   Good luck to your mum. Stay strong it’s a journey and life will never be the same, changed but hopefully more positive. X x 

Hi,

thank you so much for replying! im so sorry to hear you’re going through the same thing.

I’m not really sure what type she has, we really weren’t expecting that news and found it very difficult to take in the information. 

i just remember him saying it’s in her ovaries but it’s too large to operate and he will give her 3 sessions of chemo and see what happens. He said he didn’t think it would shrink but it could happen, odds are against her. 

i started to Google (which wasn’t my best idea). Google said if they can’t operate she only has 3-12 months to live. is this true?

the thought of losing my mum so soon is unbearable. She is so strong and is going to fight this the best she can. Xx
