Hello Lily321
I just posted to you on the other....
Anyhow welcome here and I am glad you are coming in for support.. I can imagine your heartbreak and that you are pulling your hair out!
I am sorry your mum doesn't want treatment and I am curious as to how they diagnosed her cancer.
How is she today....does she have a lot of pain......I am sorry you are alone and going through this worry... hopefully we can be a good shoulder for you and your mum..
Big hug for you and your mum
We await for you to update us on your mums situation.
God Bless, Koik

Hi Lilly
I am so sorry she is at this stage, my heart is really aching for you... I can understand if she is so weak and unhealthy then chemo is no good for her.
How long ago was she actually diagnosed and did they do a biopsy on her because you didn't actually mention which lung cancer she had or where it was? Or do you not know?
I am praying for you to have strength as you travel the road, try to eat and rest and keep faith. Hope to hear from you soon...
God Bless, Take care...Koik

I am not sure what "six stones" means but I am sorry about your mother's cancer and that chemo is not an option for her. What is the cancer type and stage? Can she tolerate radiation therapy?

You and your mother are in my thoughts and prayers.
