Hi all the wonderful nurses,

I'm Joanne,my mother has laryngeal cancer t3 n0 m0, and has been under radio-chemo since 7 dec 2011. She is currently fighting for her life in critical care, diagnosis -neutropenic sepsis caused by just 3 doses of chemo. she has been in hosp since boxing day.has been on life support since the 8th Jan.

should i tell docs of candidiasis in mouth- that she had prior to christmas, this was persistent and returned after nystatin course???

in desperation.

much love Jo
