My 86yr mother has been diagnosed with stomach cancer. She has yet to have the MDT outcome but I think she will decline treatment, other than palliative.

She lives alone, and I wonder what the next months will look like regarding her ability to carry on going out. She thinks her decline will be sudden, but I suspect it will be a gradual decline as her body shuts down. I guess everything will spelt out for her clearly.
