Bile Duct Cancer, spread to the liver

Hello,

My mother in law was just diagnosed with stage IV bile duct cancer that is now in the liver.  The doctor will not give us an estimate on how much time she has left.  He only said call in hospice sooner rather than later.  We called in hospice.  She has a decent appetite, she craves different foods and we try to get her what she wants.  She will not drink though.  She get sick and throws up about 3 times a day and then she is okay.  She is very fatigued and stays in the bed most of the time.  

Has anyone else dealt with this?

  • Hello Gremlin,

    A warm welcome to Cancer Chat.

    I’m sorry to hear about your mother-in-law’s situation and I hope you will get a chance to chat with some of our members who can share their similar experiences with you.

    In the meantime, I thought I’d send you our cancer nurses’ telephone number in case you feel like giving them a call with questions you might have. They are available on this number 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm.

    Best wishes,
