Dear Wei,
I am so happy that your Mom knows of her diagnosis. It is hard, but she has every right to make decisions about her care for herself. It definitely helps to talk about your cancer to anyone who will listen. We are not always looking for answers, we just need someone to listen and be there. You can do that for her no matter what she decides. Have you looked into the Cancer Center of America? I understand they are the best. I was fortunate to have had successful treatment for anal cancer first and then lung cancer that had spread from the anal. Treatment was awful, but I am here to talk about it today because I went through it. I had a lung resection in Feb and it went very well. I cannot expect a cure for me, but I am expecting several long remissions. The one thing above all to remember is this:
Don't give up! There isn't a cancer out there that someone hasn't already beaten. I wish the best for your Mom and your family.
Carolyn
