Hello, my mum has been diagnosed with cancer of unknown primary and been told they dont think chemo will work, he have her 9 to 12 month to live, Shes been quite poorly and he said that chemo would most probably make her quality of life she has left even worse, shes not been well for over a year but only found the cancer after doing a tap in her stomach as it's full of fluid, and also a biopsy on the omentum, was wondering if anyone was else has been in this situation x
