Welcome to the forum Loo although I'm sorry about your mum and for the reason you're joining us.
Although survival depends on a number of different factors no-one, unfortunately, can tell you how long your mum will live. However, if you have your mum's permission to speak with her medical team they may be able to offer you a bit more insight and answer any other questions you have.
We have some information about caring for someone in the latter stages of a cancer diagnosis just here but if you'd like to speak with one of our cancer nurses about this, you can contact them on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.
I hope you hear back from some of our members soon but in the meantime we're thinking of you both and sending our strength and support your way.
