Subject: can anyone help me?
Date: 06/27/2008
My grandmother had non small cell lung cancer 15 years ago, she had lung surgery and radiation. Then it came back 3 years later to her other lung, she again had surgery and radiation,3 years later it came back but this time in her brain. she had brain surgery and full head radiation. We found out this week that its back, she has 2 spots on her brain and multiple spots in her bones and a tumor on her spine.  They are doing radiation for her back and bones to help with pain, then the gamma knife for her brain.  They sent her home on some pretty heavy duty pain meds, my question is they seem to be only treating the pain, the doctors will not give us a time line, but I know that is will not be long.  She is throwing up all the time, and is very weak.  Can anyone that has gone through this give me an idea of how long we can expect her to live like this.
