My mom is terminall ill with sarcoma cancer. Although she is eating and gaining weight. She has trouble walking straight and says she tends to lean or walk off line. Has anybody heard of this?

Yes, I watched my husband do the same thing 2.5 years ago.  He was diagnosed with primary CNS non-hodgkins lymphoma of the brain.  I would ask her oncologist for a scan of her brain.  I am sure it could be something else, I hope it is.  But it almost sounds as if her cancer has metastized to her brain and is affecting her balance.

Good luck and stay strong.
