My mom...has cancer for the 4th time and there is nothing more that can be done. Right now it is small, it is in the rib and her spine closest to where she had the two lung cancers. While she has been in pain for several months now, it appears to be small and they have no estimates about how quickly it might spread nor how long she has. I am holding off until after I move at the end of September to drive down there (finances), but if her condition changes I will go anyway and figure it out when I return. I've really no other words right now, but I am sure she would appreciate any warm thoughts or prayers you could send her way. We have never had a normal mother/daughter relationship, but in the end that doesn't matter.
