My mother died last December of ovarian cancer and I find it hard to deal with it. I keep on going over and over the mistakes the Dr's did. 2 years ago she had a scan and the nurse at the time said that she has a scar on one of her ovaries but when she went to see the Dr he said it was nothing, then a year later she started getting pain but they treated her for constipation and urin infection and gave her a inhaler because she found it hard to catch her breath when walking. She kept on going to see the Dr but they said she must have urine infection. 2 years later after 2 scans, 2 CT scans and MRI they said that they couldn't see anything that the scans were blurry. It was only when they decided to operate and remove the water that was building in her abdomen that they found she had stage 4 ovarian cancer. I feel if they had looked into the first scan they could have saved her .
