Double Whammy!

Hey all... So my dad was diagnosed with stage 4 EC (mets to liver) in August, he started chemo and tumours are shrinking yay! However, in October my mam was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer (mets to brain) Double whammy! So the tumour from her brain was removed and radiation will be starting soon on brain, possibly on lung also as long as PET scan doesn't show anything they are unaware of (has been all MRI's until now). Anyone in a similar situation that can give some hope... God I hate cancer!

    Hello Cobbins..

    I am a survivor of what your mom is going through. I am still having brain tumor issues and braim swelling. But I survived and am still here to tell my tale now 2 1/2 years past the day I nearly dropped dead in the shower. Massive swelling caused my brain to quite working and I passed out. Read my story here if you can find it. It's posted my cancer story. Prayers for you and your family.
