Grandma's Breast Cancer Spread to Lymph Nodes

I'm really worried because she has COPD as well, her cancer is stage 1 grade 3, I believe that's what they called it? I want to take great care of my grandma to ensure a speedy recovery, I just hope things will turn out OK given that she has COPD as well. Will this impact her recovery at all? Thank you. 


  • Hi Jelliebeanz,

    A very warm welcome to our forum, although I'm sorry to hear why you've joined us. I am afraid that we are all cancer victims or relatives/carers of people with cancer and do not have the medical skills to answer your question.

    We all respond differently to cancer treatment, so recovery can be a bit of a lottery. Did they say what type of breast cancer your Grandma has? Some types are more aggressive than others and may need more intensive treatment.

    The best person to answer your question is your Grandma's consultant, so don't be afraid to ask questions. It is often a good idea to write these down before each appointment.

    I sincerely hope that all turns out well for her. Please keep in touch and let us know. We are always here for both of you.

    Kind regards,

    Jolamine xx
