survival rate - stage 4 cancer?!

Hello 

I Just want to find hope and hear hopeful stories on here of people who have known family members or friends - who managed to recover from "terminal" cancer.

    I'm sad to hear your mom had stage 4 cancer. Nobody can know how long someone will live with cancer, it depends on many things, like the type of cancer, if it has become metastatic or not, how healthy your mom is etc. There are several people on this forum who are 2+ years on from being diagnosed with stage 4 cancers including me. So unless she has been told it is terminal (usually 6 months life expectancy or less) keep your hopes up and even with a terminal prognosis keep your hopes up. Meanwhile spend time enjoying her company. Kim
