I'm a mess so I apologise if this makes no sense. I'm beside myself crying.
My mum had cancer. It was ovarian cancer and it spread to her other ovary and she had a hysterectomy. They found it had attached to her bowel and had part of it removed and wears a stoma bag.
Today she's been told it's spread to her kidney, her liver, her stomach and her spleen. She's been told she's starting chemo this weekend hopefully.
She has been told she's not got years left to live.
What the hell.
I don't know what this means. Will I lose her before Christmas? She's 56 years old!
Don't know what I'm asking. Will she live years despite what they say. I can't lose my mum!!!!

I'm so sorry, my lovely new m died of a particularly aggressive breast cancer 18 months ago. She stage 4 was told 6 to 12 months. She lived a further 2 and a half years with really good quality life, so you never know.

@4catsaremylife had hers spread too? Sorry to hear about your mum. I've no idea how I'm going to cope. Did your mum end up having chemo?
