Hi everyone. My elderly mother (She’s 84 housebound & quite frail ) was diagnosed with breast cancer (7cm tumour) that has also been found in lymph glands in her arm pit yesterday. She reluctantly accepted to be put on a hormone inhibitor but absolutely refused any operation, both him & I accepted her decision, (She has repeatedly said over the last few years she wants to be back with my dad who died of cancer 42 years ago) She was given 2 years at the most but more likely die within 1. I received a phone call late last night said for her to go for a full body CT scan on Sunday.

 I’m in awe of how brave & stoic she was yesterday. Also how she laughed this morning after saying it will take me ages to clear her house out after she’s gone. 

Has anyone else’s parent been so accepting?
