I'm sorry to read about your mum's AML diagnosis. This must be a difficult time for you all.
When your mum's specialist team says that she will continue with chemotherapy indefinitely, it likely means that they feel that regular chemotherapy is the best approach to keep the cancer at bay and to slow down it's progression.
However, every situation is different and it's worth asking her specialist team to explain what they hope to achieve with the ongoing treatment and what this means for your mum. They are best to clarify this in more detail for you as they are familiar with all your mum's medical details.
I hope this helps. Give us a ring if you would like to talk things over. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.
