My mum was diagnosed last feb with BC it has broken through the skin and produces fast amounts of gunk and the smell is horrendous. She had radiotherapy but they stopped the treatment after 5 sessions due to severe burning of the skin. Shes currently taking a tablet a day plus calcium tab.

Is there anything that can be done to help the wound to heal, hospital nit saying much just that it might never heal. Feel that as she is 79 they are just leaving her and jyst giving her basic treatment. Ive asked if they would not do a mastecomy but they just say we will wait and see.

Has anyone else had to deal with this with elderly parents
