Hi, my mum has just been diagnosed with Lung Ca with brain and possible breast mets. She has had the major brain tumour resected and there is still a lesion in her hippocampus.
It is possible she can have the lung tumour resected but we are waiting to hear, however it is an unlikely option.
I’m a nurse and mum has called me her ‘cancer coordinator’, I want to do everything I can for her including doing getting all the things she wants to do, done.
I know it’s impossible to say for definite and that’s not what I am looking for and we are still waiting for the type of cancer (small cell, non small cell ect) but what time frame am I looking at before she is too unwell to be able to do much? What could be her possible prognosis? At a very rough guess. She’s 55 and doesn’t deserve this but these are the cards that have been dealt.
many thanks
A
