She said she has 6 months !! please..... - Cancer: Uterine Message Board

miloutte · 09-27-2005, 07:02 AM

my mom had liquid in her lungs a couple weeks back so they took her in drained the liquid which was orangy and had stuff floating (not cancerous) anyway they found nothing the heart is fine they let her out and 1 week and a half she is back in lungs full again so they did a biopsy and took some samples of the lungs to analyse and drained her lungs again and they did a scan, from the biopsy they now say it s a TUMOUR preforably malignant
in the pelvis area or stomach...he said either uterus or ovary cancer.
This has spread (cells) to the lungs.

I have been told that if liquid is building up in lungs the tumour must have progressed (not be young)...and that for cases of uterus/ovary cancer this is one of the final stages...

I cracked yesterday...she feels she has no longer than 6 months...poor mummy i love her too much for her to go i want to get to know her more...

any ideas thoughts bad/good/ hopefull/or not welcome......
all my love
aimee.

Aimee...I am so sorry to hear about your mother and her illness. From what you've said, it sounds like your mom does have a pretty serious illness. I can't really comment on what it all means, but I'm sure that your mom feels really bad that she's not able to make you feel better about all of this. She is lucky to have a caring daughter. Is there anyone close in the family that you can talk with? Does your mom have some help? The doctor your mom is seeing should be able to help you find some support ..just to talk to and help you deal with all of this. It is alot to try to understand.

Be with your mom and do what ever you can to let her know you love her. Just being there with her is important..for you and for her. Keep us posted and pass along our prayers for her..and for you.

I really feel so sorry for you and I wish there was somthing that I could do. I have been there twice. The first time it was my father-in-law but the second it was my mum. She was my best friend in the entire world and I do still miss her like mad. I am sure that if you demand the right help your loved one will have a better chance of conquering this horrible illness. Stay strong and if you ever need to let it all out contact me because I have been there friend xx
